Job Description
Senior Project Manager leading agile delivery for digital transformation at LRQA. Responsible for end-to-end delivery of products and workstreams in a complex, multi-stakeholder environment.
Responsibilities:
- Own end-to-end delivery of one or more products or workstreams within the programme, to agreed scope, time, cost, and quality.
- Plan and run the squads’ delivery, including sprint planning, backlog flow, release planning and delivery commitments, working with Product and the development teams.
- Translate programme priorities and product goals into clear delivery plans, with milestones, dependencies and measurable outcomes.
- Drive momentum and accountability across multi-disciplinary squads (Product, Business Analysis, developers, QA and specialist roles), keeping them aligned and removing impediments.
- Run the delivery cadence and team ceremonies (planning, stand-ups, reviews and retrospectives) and ensure they remain effective.
- Manage cross-squad and cross-product dependencies, keeping a clear view of the critical path and delivery constraints.
- Own the delivery-level RAID position, surfacing risks, issues and dependencies early and managing them transparently.
- Anticipate issues and remove blockers to maintain delivery momentum.
- Manage change to scope and plan pragmatically, protecting outcomes and value.
- Provide clear, decision-oriented delivery updates focused on value, risk and confidence, not activity.
- Feed the programme’s governance, contributing to programme reporting, steering packs and milestone reviews with clear, traceable status.
- Support budget and forecast management for the products or workstreams, tracking spend against plan and raising financial pressures early with the Programme Lead, who typically owns the budget.
- Maintain a clear view of squad capacity and capability, highlighting constraints and supporting prioritisation and trade-off decisions.
- Keep delivery aligned to business value and measurable outcomes, tracking when benefits are expected to be realised and highlighting slippage.
- Promote an outcome-focused delivery culture across the squads, measuring progress by value achieved.
- Build trusted relationships across business, technology, and delivery teams, providing a clear link between strategy, delivery, and operations.
Requirements:
- Proven experience leading end-to-end delivery of complex digital or software products and workstreams in a multi-stakeholder environment.
- Strong, hands-on experience running delivery in agile, product-led squads (Scrum or Kanban), balancing agile flexibility with programme-level control.
- Demonstrated ability to drive behavioral and process change within delivery teams, including gaining buy-in from teams not directly under their authority.
- Solid grounding in structured delivery, with experience or certification in recognised approaches (for example PRINCE2, MSP, PMI or Agile equivalents), applied proportionately.
- Managing dependencies, sequencing, risk, and change across concurrent workstreams and teams.
- Managing delivery budgets, forecast, and trade-offs, and holding suppliers to plan and quality.
- Excellent communication and influencing, able to distil complexity into clarity for senior stakeholders and to work across business, technology, and delivery teams.
- Comfortable operating within programme governance and delivery standards set by others, and contributing to their improvement.
- A good understanding of modern software delivery and, ideally, of assurance, certification, or related digital platforms (advantageous).
Benefits:
- Digital Transformation
- Modernizing technology, products, and platforms
