Release Manager
Location: Hybrid, occasional travel to London office once a month
Salary: £65,000
Contract: Permanent, Full-Time
We're partnering with an established UK organisation to appoint a Release Manager as part of the continued development of its Technology function.
The technology team has made significant progress over the last couple of years and is continuing to develop its approach to technology delivery, governance and operational support. This is an important role within that journey, providing the confidence, structure and coordination needed to manage releases and technology environments effectively across a varied technology landscape.
This isn't a role where you'll be expected to automate everything or spend your time managing routine deployments. Instead, you'll be the person who can look across the release, environment and testing landscape, understand what needs to happen, challenge where appropriate and give wider teams confidence that things are being managed in the right way.
You'll work closely with Business teams, Test teams, Architects, Project and Delivery teams, technical specialists and external suppliers. You'll need the confidence and credibility to operate across the wider organisation, explain technical issues clearly and bring different teams together around successful technology change.
The technology estate includes cloud platforms, enterprise business applications and a range of third-party systems, with the organisation continuing to develop its cloud-first approach.
