Job Description

Lead Delivery Manager - Sydney | Hybrid

We’re partnering with a growing technology business looking to hire a Lead Delivery Manager to elevate delivery across the organisation.

This is not a standard Delivery Manager role.

You’ll operate at a senior level — leading programs, influencing delivery leaders, and driving how delivery is executed across teams.

What you’ll do

  • Oversee complex, multi-stream programs across enterprise clients
  • Lead and influence Delivery Managers and cross-functional teams
  • Drive consistency, structure, and high standards across delivery
  • Own delivery outcomes end-to-end — including commercial performance
  • Work closely with senior stakeholders to align delivery with business outcomes
  • Identify and improve inefficiencies across teams

What we’re looking for

  • Proven experience leading large, complex delivery environments
  • Experience managing or mentoring Delivery Managers
  • Strong commercial acumen (budget, forecasting, trade-offs)
  • Ability to lead without authority and drive performance across teams
  • Confident working with senior stakeholders and clients
  • Track record of improving ways of working and lifting delivery standards

Why this role

  • Influence how delivery is done — not just what is delivered
  • Work at a leadership level across programs and teams
  • Opportunity to lift capability and shape delivery maturity

 

This role suits a high-performing, commercially astute delivery leader ready to step beyond traditional program delivery.
