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.
