Active Training Team creates safer workplaces through award-winning immersive training. Combining live drama, film, realistic environments and skills coaching, our programmes are designed to change how people think, decide and behave in high-risk situations. We work in construction, utilities, transport and energy, alongside organisations that want to build stronger safety cultures and keep people safe. For nearly 20 years we've brought this work to sites, cabins, canteens and conference halls across the UK, Europe and the US, as well as building immersive induction centres across the UK.
We are currently seeking a Delivery Manager to oversee the delivery of our immersive training events. This is an exciting opportunity for someone looking to build on their career in event operations management working within a supportive, collaborative and fast-growing, values-led company.
As Delivery Manager, you’ll oversee operational delivery for ATT’s mobile and centre programmes in the UK and internationally. Managing logistics, documentation, client reporting and cross-departmental communication to keep programmes running smoothly, on time, within scope, and within budget. Based at our Head Office in South East London, you’ll manage a small team of Training Delivery Coordinators and Technical & Production Lead(s), overseeing operational quality and standards while continuously seeking opportunities for improvement. This is a full time position working Monday to Friday with the option to work from home 1 day per week.
Key Responsibilities include:
- Manage and support the Training Delivery Coordinators and Production Lead(s).
- Oversee daily delivery operations, resolving issues as they arise.
- Identify workflow improvements and address operational gaps.
- Participate in the ‘out of hours rota’ (a few days per month).
- Monitor the daily operations of each centre-based project.
- Act as a key contact for the on-site managers at our centres.
- Oversee all mobile deliveries ensuring they run on time and within budget.
- Lead the Mobile Delivery team on complex delivery arrangements.
- Maintain effective live support channels for mobile teams.
- Manage production administration and logistics across all training deliveries.
- Maintain accurate records and report against KPIs set by Head of Delivery.
- Create and distribute monthly client reporting documents.

- Maintain accurate, audit-ready documentation for ATT’s ISO 9001 quality system.
What We’re Looking For:
This opportunity might be for you if you’re someone who’s:
- Calm in a crisis – when a delivery hits a snag, you're the one quietly sorting it out.
- Across it all, with the full picture in view – budgets, timelines, logistics, people.
- Steady at the centre – you lead with a calm consistency that people trust.
- Always chasing 'better' – you actively question where the workflow could be faster or more effective.
- Commercially savvy – you know great delivery and healthy margins go hand in hand.
- A natural connector – you move easily between Commercial, Finance, Creative and on-site teams.
This role isn’t just about keeping the wheels turning, it's about making sure the whole machine runs better than it did yesterday. You'll be trusted with real operational judgement across centre and mobile deliveries, with the confidence to make decisions when things are moving fast.
Essential:
- A minimum of 3 years’ management experience in an operational, logistics or events role.
- Proven experience managing logistics for complex, multi-location or international events/programmes.

- Strong written communication skills, with the ability to produce accurate, professional client reports and correspondence.
- Proficient in Microsoft 365 including Outlook, Word, PowerPoint, Teams and SharePoint.
- Experience of creating event costings and budgets.
