Delivery Manager with Agile Coaching Experience

Role Overview

We are seeking a new talent to join the team where you will have the opportunity to contribute to large‑scale transformation initiatives within enterprise banking platforms. The client is a leading financial services organisation, delivering innovative and scalable technology solutions across digital and core banking systems in a highly regulated environment.

As a Scaled Agile Delivery Manager, you will support end‑to‑end delivery across Tribes and Domains, working closely with Tribe Leads and Tribe Tech Leads.

You will operate in hybrid delivery environments, where traditional delivery approaches and scaled agile delivery coexist, and help put in place practical interim mechanisms to ensure continuity, control, and compliance.

The role may support delivery across Customer Domains, Functional Domains, Platform Domains, or Platform Centres of Expertise.
