Role: IT Delivery Manager
Reporting to: Head of IT Infrastructure
Location: London OR Milton Keynes (hybrid)
The role
We are seeking an experienced IT Delivery Manager / Project Manager with a strong foundation in IT infrastructure, operational change and cross-functional delivery. This role is critical in ensuring that technology initiatives across the organisation are well-planned, governed and executed to time, cost and quality.
Sitting within the Corporate IT function, you will coordinate delivery across multiple workstreams, manage priorities, and ensure stakeholders across Technology and the wider business are aligned and engaged. As part of a small, multi-skilled IT Team, you will work across the full IT ecosystem – driving adoption, enabling productivity, and ensuring a secure, seamless employee experience across devices, locations and platforms.
What You'll Be Doing
  • Delivery leadership & planning: Lead the planning, coordination and end-to-end delivery of IT infrastructure and operational projects, ensuring alignment with strategic technology objectives.
  • Maintain clear delivery roadmaps, project plans, RAID logs and status reporting to ensure transparency of progress, risks and dependencies.
  • Portfolio & Prioritisation Management: Manage multiple backlogs and competing priorities, ensuring structured prioritisation in partnership with business stakeholders, Product teams and technical SMEs.
  • Facilitate cross-team alignment to ensure sequencing, resourcing and dependencies are well understood.
  • Stakeholder Engagement & Communication: Act as the primary delivery interface with internal teams, senior stakeholders, vendors and partners.
  • Communicate progress effectively through structured reporting, steering packs and regular updates, ensuring issues are escalated early.
  • Vendor, Partner & Supplier Co-ordination: Work with external suppliers to manage deliverables, SLAs, commercials, and integration with internal delivery timelines.
  • Operational Readiness & Change Management: Drive transition-to-live planning and testing, ensuring both technical and non-technical teams are fully prepared. Coordinate change impact assessments and ensure smooth adoption across teams
We're looking for someone with
  • Extensive experience delivering IT infrastructure, operational and technology projects in complex environments.
  • Strong planning, dependency management and risk-based decision-making skills.
  • Proven experience managing multiple workstreams, roadmaps and backlogs simultaneously.
  • Demonstrable ability to collaborate across Infrastructure, Security, Product, Architecture and business functions.
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to clearly articulate plans, risks and priorities to all stakeholders.
  • A structured approach to governance, financial tracking and project controls.
  • Experience managing third-party delivery partners and vendors.
  • Ability to operate with autonomy, take ownership and adapt to changing priorities.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Ability to adapt to a rapidly changing environment and manage multiple priorities.
What You'll Bring To The Role
  • A track record of successfully delivering technology programmes in dynamic, multi-team environments.
  • Strong organisational discipline and the ability to impose structure where needed without unnecessary bureaucracy.
  • A pragmatic approach to delivery, balancing agility with the rigour required in a FTSE 100 environment.
  • Ability to navigate ambiguity and drive clarity across complex delivery landscapes.
  • A collaborative mindset that builds trust quickly across technical and non-technical teams.
  • Excellent stakeholder engagement skills and the confidence to communicate at all levels, including senior leadership.
  • Experience shaping delivery culture, promoting transparency, accountability and continuous improvement across teams.
  • A strong understanding of how infrastructure, cloud, security and business processes intersect — enabling you to make informed delivery decisions.
  • An appreciation for how project outcomes affect run-state operations, ensuring that service stability, monitoring, and performance considerations are embedded early in delivery.
