What You’ll Do Delivery Performance Planning - build integrated plans across workstreams, manage the cross-workstream critical path, and model scenarios to support decisions.

Agile use delivery metrics to forecast and spot risk early. Releases - work with Engineering to move projects towards continuous delivery (feature flags, automated release gates, frequent small releases), balanced against client approval and CTV platform certification. Product Owner role - act as Product Owner on smaller, less complex projects with no dedicated Product Manager, owning the backlog, prioritisation and acceptance criteria; judge when a dedicated Product Manager is needed instead. Delivery KPIs - keep schedule and cost variance, RAG-red weeks and project lifecycle sign-offs on track against department targets across complex portfolios. Financial Performance Budgets, forecasting drive process improvement beyond your own projects. AI holds team and self to the same standard. Strategic thinking - shapes delivery approach and planning decisions; anticipates future account needs. Communication - reads senior and executive audiences and adapts the message in the moment. Candour - delivers unwelcome news to senior stakeholders, with options. Innovation mindset - actively looks for new practices and technology that improve delivery, and tests them rather than waiting for others to. Learning - shares what they learn across the department. Collaboration - creates an environment where mistakes are raised without blame. Influence - influences without authority across disciplines and senior stakeholders. Experience 5-8 years leading complex or concurrent delivery, with demonstrated mentoring and/or management of other PMs, or equivalent demonstrated capability.
