Delivery Manager
Outside IR35 Contract
£350 per day | Initial 6 Months | 2 Days Onsite | Central London
We're looking for a hands-on Delivery Manager to join a well-established retail business undergoing a major technology transformation.
This isn't a traditional Project Management role and it isn't a strategic Product Management position. We're looking for someone who enjoys working closely with software engineering teams, taking broad business requirements and turning them into clear, deliverable pieces of work.
You'll act as the bridge between the business and engineering, helping shape solutions, manage delivery and ensure development teams have everything they need to keep work moving.
Retail, ecommerce and customer-facing digital product experience would be highly advantageous.
The Role
You'll be embedded within a cross-functional engineering team, working alongside Product Managers, Developers and stakeholders to turn business ideas into high-quality software delivery.
Typical responsibilities include:
- Breaking down epics and high-level requirements into clear user stories and technical tasks.
- Managing and prioritising the delivery backlog.
- Writing user stories and acceptance criteria.
- Working with developers on a daily basis to answer questions and clarify requirements.
- Removing blockers and keeping delivery moving.
- Running backlog refinement, sprint planning and delivery sessions.
- Working closely with business stakeholders to understand requirements before development begins.
- Supporting Product Managers by translating business priorities into practical engineering deliverables.
- Ensuring work is well defined, prioritised and ready before entering development.

- Strong experience managing backlogs and refining work for development teams.
- Experience writing user stories and clear acceptance criteria.
- Comfortable breaking down large pieces of work into smaller deliverable tasks.

Highly desirable
- Retail or ecommerce experience.
- Experience working on customer-facing digital products.
- Experience improving customer journeys, checkout, ordering or operational systems.
- Experience working within fast-paced product and engineering teams.
This role probably isn't for you if...
- Your experience has mainly been project planning, governance or reporting.
- You've primarily managed delivery through Project Managers or Business Analysts rather than working directly with engineers.
- You prefer defining strategy over getting involved in day-to-day software delivery.
- You're looking for a senior leadership or Head of Product position.
If you enjoy working closely with engineers, solving problems, refining requirements and helping teams deliver high-quality software quickly, we'd love to hear from you.
