Technical Delivery Manager - Commodities

We’re excited to welcome an experienced Technical Delivery Manager to a newly formed engineering area focused on a new cloud‑based research and analytics platform, representing a significant new investment for LSEG. You’ll be part of a brand‑new team shaping how this capability is delivered and scaled. In this role, you’ll lead end‑to‑end delivery of complex initiatives in a fast‑evolving environment. This is not a traditional project management role; success is measured by customer and business outcomes, delivery health, and technical credibility rather than plan conformance alone. Your technical background will enable you to understand system design, dependencies, and delivery constraints well enough to guide teams, challenge assumptions, and keep delivery moving. If you thrive in fast‑paced environments and enjoy connecting delivery execution with business outcomes, this role offers the opportunity to make a meaningful impact.

What You’ll Do

• Lead Delivery: Define and own delivery roadmaps, run working groups, and maintain momentum across initiatives. Anticipate risks and dependencies early.
• Cross‑functional Leadership: Partner with engineering, design, operations, testing, product, and business to align execution with strategic intent and customer outcomes.
• Enable Predictable Delivery: Use technical fluency and structured problem‑solving to manage dependencies, support decision‑making, and unblock progress.
• Champion Agile Delivery: Promote outcome‑led, iterative ways of working that improve predictability, quality, and delivery health.
• Governance & Reporting: Lead governance forums and provide clear, decision‑focused updates to senior audiences.

Specific Accountabilities

• Scope & Planning: Define and manage delivery scope and roadmaps, addressing cross‑team dependencies using standard delivery and reporting approaches.
• Delivery Ownership: Provide end‑to‑end delivery leadership across initiatives to ensure timelines, quality expectations, and business outcomes are met.
• Risk & Dependency Management (RAID): Proactively identify, track, and mitigate risks, assumptions, issues, and dependencies across delivery streams.
• Decision‑Making & Governance: Facilitate informed, evidence‑based trade‑offs that balance delivery speed, quality, and sustainability.
• Reporting & Transparency: Maintain clear visibility of progress, risks, and mitigations to support effective leadership decision‑making.
• Continuous Improvement: Use delivery insights to assess health, identify constraints, and continuously improve ways of working as the platform and teams mature.

What You Bring

• Proven experience in technical delivery, programme management, or technology transformation roles managing cross‑team dependencies and delivery risks across large, complex multi‑team technology initiatives.
• Strong technical foundation, enabling credible engagement with delivery and architecture discussions.
• Background in big data platforms supporting commodities markets.
• Solid understanding of delivery lifecycles and Agile ways of working.
• Comfort operating within governance, risk, and assurance frameworks.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to translate delivery progress, risks, and decisions for non‑technical audiences.
• Outcome‑driven, pragmatic approach with confidence operating in evolving and ambiguous environments.
