About the Role

We are searching on behalf of our client for this role. This position is not with OVI.

We are seeking an experienced Program Delivery Manager to lead the successful delivery of digital products and services within a multidisciplinary Agile environment. You will be responsible for enabling high-performing delivery teams, ensuring the effective planning, coordination, and execution of work that delivers value to users. Working as part of a collaborative delivery community, you will lead one of several cross-functional teams while contributing to continuous improvement across the wider organisation.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead and support a multidisciplinary Agile team through all phases of product delivery.
  • Break down complex programmes and initiatives into manageable, achievable deliverables.
  • Facilitate Agile ceremonies including Scrum and Kanban events to ensure effective team collaboration and delivery.
  • Identify, manage, and remove blockers that impact team progress.
  • Proactively manage delivery risks, dependencies, and issues, escalating where appropriate.
  • Foster a culture of continuous improvement through regular retrospectives, feedback, and the use of delivery metrics.
  • Collaborate closely with Product Managers, Engineering teams, and other stakeholders to ensure alignment on scope, priorities, timelines, and deliverables.
  • Monitor delivery health using KPIs, velocity, burn-up/down charts, and trend analysis to support data-driven decision-making.
  • Build strong relationships with technical and non-technical stakeholders, communicating progress, risks, and business value effectively.
  • Prioritise work and support backlog refinement to maximise value delivery.

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.
