Agile Delivery Manager – Next-Generation Defence & Autonomous / Uncrewed Systems
📍 Bristol | Hybrid
We’re supporting an innovative defence technology business developing next-generation uncrewed and autonomous systems across air, land and maritime domains.
They’re looking for an experienced Agile Delivery Manager to lead the delivery of complex, multidisciplinary technology programmes spanning hardware, software and integrated engineering systems, taking products from early-stage concept and development through to deployment. This is a hands-on delivery role within a fast-paced, innovation-led environment, bringing together cross-functional engineering teams to develop and deploy new technology at pace.
What you’ll be doing
- Leading Agile delivery across complex hardware and software engineering programmes
- Aligning multidisciplinary engineering teams around priorities, milestones and outcomes
- Managing dependencies, risks, blockers and competing priorities
- Driving rapid product development within an evolving and sometimes ambiguous environment
- Supporting products from early concept and R&D through development, manufacturing readiness and operational deployment
- Creating structure and visibility without introducing unnecessary process
- Working closely with engineering, product and senior stakeholders to maintain delivery momentum
