Senior Delivery Manager

Responsibilities

• Serve as the main delivery contact for clients. Manage expectations, report progress, escalate risks, and hold trusted relationships with senior stakeholders.
• Run cloud consulting engagements, keeping customers satisfied and outcomes on track.
• Lead Engineers, Architects, and Consultants. Keep work planned, prioritised, and moving using agile or hybrid methods.
• Own delivery artefacts: project plans, status reports, RAID logs, roadmaps, and governance packs.
• Where your expertise adds value, get involved directly in client deliverables such as migration planning, cloud operating model design, or service transition.
• Work with the Head of Delivery to manage capacity across engagements, flagging constraints and skills gaps early.
• Contribute to proposals, estimates, and scoping workshops when new engagements are being shaped.
• Run retrospectives, sprint reviews, and foster a culture of continuous improvement.
• Collaborate with other Delivery Managers to standardise how Cloudscaler delivers, sharing best practice and building out delivery playbooks.
• When not on client engagements, contribute to practice development, Academy mentoring, or managed service delivery.
• Required Experience
• You've ideally delivered large cloud, infrastructure, or DevOps programmes at enterprise scale; not just contributed to them, but driven them.
• You own the paperwork that matters: status reports, RAID logs, roadmaps, and governance frameworks that real stakeholders actually rely on.
• You can run a workshop, break down complex problems, and turn findings into clear written recommendations.
• Comfortable with senior stakeholders; steering committees, programme boards, and tough conversations about scope, time, or risk.
• You've worked in sectors like finance, government, defence, or healthcare, where compliance and security aren't afterthoughts. Critically, you are comfortable re-planning and pivoting mid-engagement when policy, risk appetite, or technical direction changes.
• Required Behaviours
• Cloudscaler's values are central to how we work. We expect the following behaviours:
• Integrity: You are transparent about delivery status; good and bad. You honour commitments to clients and colleagues.
• Community: You collaborate across disciplines and invest in others through mentoring and knowledge sharing.
• Trust: You build confidence through reliability, competence, and openness.
• Ownership: You treat client outcomes as your own. You see problems coming and act.
• Adaptability: You are comfortable switching between leading a delivery team and contributing directly to client deliverables. Consultancy life requires range.
• Interview Process
• Screening call with our Talent Acquisition team
• 1st Interview - 45 minute remote interview with colleague and leadership team
• 2nd Interview - 60 minute remote interview with members of the team
• 3rd Interview - 60 minute in person interview with members of our hiring and Senior Leadership Team
• Cloudscaler are proud to be an equal opportunity employer, committed to equal opportunities regardless of gender identity, sexual orientation, race, ancestry, age, marital status, disability, parental status, religion or medical history.
