Delivery Manager – London, UK

At WiseTech, we build the software that powers global logistics. Our mission is to change the world by creating breakthrough products that empower those that own, enable, and operate the supply chains of the world. In order to do this, we are continuing to hire Delivery Managers to work with our product teams to increase efficiency and productivity in the way they work.

As a Delivery Manager, you are a leader within one or more software development teams, helping them be more productive through the management, coordination and facilitation of the team’s current operational workload. This includes:

• Proactively identifying and removing obstacles to progress;
• Investigating, identifying and implementing changes to improve the systems, processes and tools employed by the team to deliver their work;
• Facilitating communication within and between teams;
• Contributing to the team’s strategic roadmap, and then ensuring the team’s activities align with it;
• Influencing the team to maintain their focus on the highest priority work;
• Contributing to defining, improving and implementing a standardised set of key practices within teams to ensure the entire organisation can benefit from established best-practice.

As a Delivery Manager, you bring out the best in your teams.

About You

You are someone with great interpersonal skills who wants to understand the challenges their teams are facing. You help people find common ground and help them to achieve outcomes beyond what they thought possible. You are curious; you want to know how things work and enjoy thinking of ways to improve them. You can adapt your approach to suit the demands of the situation. At some times, this may mean applying an analytical approach (i.e. gathering supporting data to justify a process change) and at other times, a people-focussed one (i.e. understanding the motivations of key stakeholders and finding ways to satisfy them for a true win-win). You are a leader, who unites people and makes sure they have the support they need to succeed. You see a job well done as its own reward, as building and maintaining trust with your team is essential to success as a Delivery Manager.

If you come from a process engineering, change management, or project management background then we’d love to meet you. However, we also know that brilliant people can come from unlikely places and that titles don’t define you. If you have a solid track record with strong, transferrable skills that fit what you’ve read so far, we want to meet you.

Our people are the foundations of our business and we value the contribution and commitment they make. We have a range of benefits including generous leave, flexible working, development opportunities, employee assistance programs, and more.
