We're looking for an experienced and strategic delivery leader to shape the future of how Civiteq delivers work as we continue to grow. This is a high-impact leadership role for someone who combines operational excellence, commercial awareness and a passion for building scalable delivery capability. You'll have the opportunity to influence how we deliver value for clients, develop our delivery leadership community and help define a modern, AI-enabled approach to consulting delivery.

Your focus will be ensuring, across the organization, projects and programmes are delivered consistently, predictably and profitably, while maintaining exceptional client outcomes through senior-level sponsorship.
You'll establish the frameworks, standards and capabilities that enable successful delivery across a growing portfolio of work. Acting as a trusted senior leader, you'll provide clear insight into delivery performance, identify opportunities for improvement and help shape strategic decisions that support Civiteq's continued growth.
A key part of the role will be driving innovation in delivery practices, including the effective use of AI to improve productivity, quality and scalability across the organisation.

- Develop and embed delivery standards, methods and best practices across the business.
- Use delivery insights and performance data to drive continuous improvement and organisational learning.
- Identify and address risks early, ensuring issues are resolved before they impact client outcomes or business performance.
- Drive the adoption of AI-enabled delivery approaches that enhance productivity, quality and scalability.
- Lead, coach and develop senior delivery leaders, building a resilient and high-performing delivery community.
- Collaborate with colleagues across propositions, growth and delivery teams to ensure services remain practical, deliverable and commercially successful.
- Champion a culture of continuous improvement, innovation and delivery excellence.
