The Job
As the Product Delivery Manager, you will act as the critical bridge between fast-moving business environments and technical delivery. This is a highly proactive, artefact-led position where you will be expected to turn complex, shifting requirements into clear, visual deliverables that senior stakeholders can easily digest and sign off.
You will take full ownership of the team's delivery ecosystem. This means building rollout plans, workflow diagrams, and decision trees ahead of time, ensuring you are guiding the pace rather than reactively taking tickets.
You will also be responsible for driving Jira governance across the team—establishing control over workflow stages, closing gaps where developers might self-manage their sprint cadence, and tracking clear delivery metrics.
Managing multiple parallel workstreams will be second nature to you, and you will act as a vital buffer to protect developer capacity and shield them from the friction of context-switching.
About You
You will probably be a delivery manager or project manager with experience working as Business Analyst or product owner. Ideally you will have been technical in the past.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you

- Strong technical Jira capability (governance, workflow configuration, and board management)
- Delivery metric tracking (Velocity, Cycle Time, Lead Time, Rework Rates)
- Workflow diagramming and mapping tools (e.g., Miro, Visio, Lucidchart)
- Advanced sprint planning and portfolio management frameworks
