Technical Delivery Lead

Department: Consultancy
Employment Type: Full Time
Location: Remote

Description

The Role

We're looking for an experienced Technical Delivery Lead to join a growing Product and Engineering team.

You'll play a key role in delivering enhancements, new features, and platform improvements across a large-scale eCommerce ecosystem. Working closely with Product, Engineering, and Architecture teams, you'll help ensure complex initiatives are delivered effectively, dependencies are managed, and teams are set up for success.

This is an opportunity to work on a high-traffic digital platform that serves millions of customers, helping shape both the customer experience and the way engineering teams deliver value.

You'll work alongside Product Owners, Engineering Managers, Technical Leads, and Architects to coordinate delivery across multiple workstreams, ensuring teams have the clarity, focus, and support they need to deliver high-quality solutions.

Rather than traditional project management, the focus is on enabling teams to navigate complexity, solve delivery challenges, and maintain momentum. You'll be a trusted partner across the organisation, helping to align priorities, manage risks, and drive successful outcomes.

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.
