Job Description
At Gousto, Delivery plays a leadership role at the intersection of strategy and execution, helping turn intent into outcomes.
Group Technical Delivery Managers lead the charge across our most complex strategic initiatives. They are accountable for driving delivery towards outcomes and for raising the effectiveness of the tribes they work with.
We're rebuilding Delivery as an AI-native function, and this role is expected to champion that shift across the tribes — embedding AI-native ways of working into how the tribe plans, tracks and governs delivery. You're expected to get hands-on yourself — not just setting direction from the sidelines.
Core Responsibilities
- Champion AI-native tools and workflows to optimize delivery efficiency, planning, and problem-solving across teams
- Manage the end-to-end delivery of major strategic goals spanning multiple teams and functions
- Lead key technical workstreams and integration initiatives across cross-functional domains
- Translate strategic intent into clear, outcome-driven delivery plans
- Define milestones, dependencies, risks, and decision points across the full delivery lifecycle
- Run programme governance that focuses on driving decisions rather than passive reporting
- Communicate progress, risks, and trade-offs to senior leadership early and clearly
- Coordinate delivery across both technical and non-technical functions, including Digital Product, Data, Marketing, Operations, and Commercial
- Facilitate quarterly planning processes to ensure priorities, scope, and capacity are explicit, realistic, and aligned to business strategy
- Identify underperforming delivery systems early and intervene to raise delivery standards, routines, and ways of working
