We are seeking a hands-on Senior Delivery Lead to join the FinXL delivery team. In this execution-focused role, you will take direct delivery accountability for one or more cross-functional squads, navigating a complex, multi-stream environment to keep execution velocity high and translate program roadmaps into tangible tech deliveries.
Key Responsibilities
- End-to-End Squad Execution: Take full ownership of the end-to-end delivery lifecycle for multiple technical squads, driving tasks from concept through to production deployment and benefit realisation.
- Agile & Scrum Operations: Facilitate core agile ceremonies (daily stand-ups, backlog refinement, sprint reviews, and retrospectives) while driving forward sprint planning and capacity forecasting.
- Jira & Confluence Tooling Hygiene: Act as the direct, hands-on custodian for all Jira board tracking, Confluence documentation, user story mapping, and dependency visualisation.
- Risk & Dependency Management: Proactively identify delivery bottlenecks, track continuous technical or operational dependencies, and implement proactive mitigation strategies.
- Governance & Progress Dashboards: Maintain structured project governance frameworks and deliver transparent status reports, metrics, and live dashboards to program leadership.
Requirements
- Proven experience as a Delivery Lead successfully steering complex technology, systems integration, or digital transformation projects within large enterprise environments, ideally in wealth management or advisory.

- Strong practical scrum master experience to confidently anchor and run dual-squad agile cadences.
- Advanced, expert-level proficiency in Jira and Confluence tools to build out clean sprints, map epics, and establish full traceability.
- Exceptional verbal and written communication, negotiation, and soft skills with the natural drive to influence and align disparate business and technical stakeholders.
