Delivery Director – Tech Solutions
About Scott Logic
Scott Logic is an independent software consultancy helping global organisations tackle complex technology challenges. Specialising in financial services, public sector, and beyond, we deliver high-quality, bespoke software, data, and AI solutions using small, expertise-led teams.
We offer a broad range of services, including software development, UX design, data engineering, AI, and fintech consultation, ensuring tailored solutions that meet unique client demands.
This hands-on, client-facing role immerses you in the full software development lifecycle, enabling you to lead mission-critical projects for high-profile clients across finance, government, and beyond. You’ll collaborate in small, multidisciplinary teams, often embedded with the client, to solve complex challenges in software engineering, data, and AI programmes.
Our teams thrive on freedom, collaboration, and pragmatism, creating an environment where success is driven by collective innovation.
The Role
You’ll take ownership and leadership of complex technology engagements, acting as a trusted delivery partner while balancing scope, schedule, budget, and quality. Key responsibilities include:
Core Accountabilities
- Deliver complex projects: Lead end-to-end technology projects, ensuring high standards of scope, timeline, and financial management. Foster strong, trust-based client relationships at a senior level.
- Cross-functional team leadership: Work closely with embedded client teams, combining expertises in software, data, and AI to navigate challenges.
- Consultancy and commercial responsibility: Oversee project financials—forecasting, budget management, and reporting—to achieve commercial targets.
- People management & development: Support consultant onboarding by assessing project fit. Conduct performance reviews, annual appraisals, and development planning.
- Organisational contribution: Drive lessons learned, develop best practices, and collaborate on scaling delivery strategies within Scott Logic.
