Digital Delivery Director

Digital Transformation / Technology Delivery Leadership

Hybrid – Bedfordshire / London £100,000–£110,000 + benefits

We are seeking a Digital Delivery Director to lead a complex, business-critical programme as it transitions from build into operational launch. This opportunity suits a senior delivery leader with strong transformation experience and the stakeholder capability to navigate a politically sensitive, multi-party environment.

The successful candidate will play a central role in guiding a major platform to launch in a controlled, credible and commercially sound way, while building confidence across a broad senior stakeholder group.

The role

You will take end-to-end ownership of delivery across a major digital platform programme, coordinating the path to release and ensuring both the organisation and stakeholders are ready to support go-live.

The environment is complex, with multiple stakeholder groups and competing priorities. Success will depend on your ability to build alignment, exercise sound judgement, and maintain momentum without compromising quality.

This role requires a leader who is transformation-driven and technically credible - someone who understands technology delivery well enough to challenge and guide, but whose strengths lie in leadership, stakeholder engagement, prioritisation and mobilisation.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Key responsibilities

  • Lead delivery of a major digital transformation programme through to launch
  • Build strong relationships with senior stakeholders and coordinate across a complex partner landscape
  • Support board- and executive-level decision-making by clearly articulating risks, trade-offs and priorities
  • Strengthen governance, delivery controls and cross-functional coordination
  • Work with engineering, product and operational teams to ensure plans are realistic and release-ready
  • Guide decisions on release priorities, quality thresholds and readiness
  • Inform the sequencing of post-launch roadmap activity
  • Help shape the future delivery model as the platform evolves

What we’re looking for

We are interested in senior leaders with a proven track record of delivering complex, technology-enabled transformation programmes - particularly in environments where success depends on more than technical execution alone.

You will bring:

  • Significant experience leading end-to-end digital or technology delivery programmes
  • A strong background operating in politically complex, stakeholder-heavy environments with multiple senior stakeholders and competing priorities
  • The ability to build credibility quickly with boards, executives and delivery teams
  • Experience working within complex governance structures and high levels of scrutiny
  • A track record of aligning diverse stakeholder groups and driving consensus
  • Strong judgement, pragmatism and confidence in making difficult delivery decisions
  • Comfort operating across strategy, delivery and operational readiness, including business change and release planning
  • The ability to challenge constructively without needing to be hands-on technically
  • Excellent communication, influencing and conflict-resolution skills

Experience in regulated or similarly complex environments (e.g. public sector, infrastructure or defence) is advantageous. Familiarity with service design, business readiness, and enterprise technologies such as Dynamics, Power Platform or Azure would be beneficial, but is not essential.

Why this role?

This is a rare opportunity to step into a highly visible leadership role on a significant platform programme. You will help shape the final route to launch, influence delivery practices, and play a key role in embedding a long-term digital capability.

If this sounds like a good fit, apply today and a member of the team will be in touch to discuss further.
