Technology Delivery Manager
Barbican, London | Hybrid Working | Technology | Fixed Term Contract: 12 Months | Full Time
Competitive salary available, depending on experience
37.5 hours per week
Nuffield Health is entering a pivotal phase of its digital transformation, focused on building best-in-class online journeys and digital applications for its customers and staff.
About the Role
Our Ecommerce team is at the heart of this transformation. Responsible for the Nuffield Health website and App and for the digitisation of all key customer and patient transactions, it is fundamental to our ambitions to put digital front and centre of the charity’s ambition to build a healthier nation.
We’re looking for an experienced Technology Delivery Manager who thrives in fast-paced digital environments, enjoys solving complex problems, brings structure to ambiguity and can help teams deliver high-quality customer experiences predictably and at pace.
This is a 12-month maternity cover role that will lead delivery of all initiatives within the ecommerce team. Initiatives within the team are typically delivered within an Agile framework so experience of Scrum/Kanban is key – but flexibility is important and a passion for delivering complex IT projects within a digital / healthcare environment is another must-have attribute.
Responsibilities
As our Technology Delivery Manager, you’ll:
- Lead delivery across the Ecommerce squad, focusing the team on clear, achievable and cost-effective outcomes.
- Ensure delivery activities are aligned to agreed business outcomes, customer value and strategic objectives, balancing speed, quality and risk.
- Lead squad capacity and demand planning activities, ensuring a clear understanding of team availability, upcoming demand, delivery forecasts and constraints to support effective prioritisation and predictable delivery.
- Use delivery metrics and planning data to improve forecasting accuracy, identify bottlenecks and drive continuous improvements in squad performance.
- Create delivery plans, milestones, dependencies, resource requirements and critical paths across concurrent initiatives.
- Support squad and unit level planning practices such as Refinement, Sprint Planning and Big Room Planning by bringing together priorities, dependencies, capacity and delivery confidence across teams.
- Manage risks, issues, decisions and cross-squad or supplier dependencies, escalating constraints early and clearly.
- Provide transparent reporting on progress, priorities, risks, capacity and delivery confidence to senior stakeholders.
- Use delivery data and agile metrics such as velocity, lead time, cycle time, throughput and delivery predictability to support planning and continuous improvement.
- Work with Architecture, Cyber Security, Service Management and operations to ensure solutions are secure, supportable and ready for service.
- Support change control, implementation planning, testing, deployment, operational readiness and handover.
- Build trusted relationships across Technology and the wider organisation, constructively challenging unclear or unrealistic demand.
