REPORTING - CoE Director / Digital Lead
MAIN PURPOSE OF ROLE
**The Technical Delivery Manager is responsible for the end-to-end delivery of complex digital, data, integration and enterprise application initiatives. This is a hybrid technical and delivery leadership role, not a traditional project management position. The person must have sufficient technology understanding to evaluate solution approaches, challenge architects, engineers and vendors, manage technical dependencies and risks, and ensure that solutions are secure, supportable and aligned with enterprise standards while meeting agreed scope, quality, cost and schedule outcomes.
**KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Strategy and Planning
**· Convert business priorities and architecture roadmaps into achievable delivery plans, milestones, resource requirements and budgets.
· Define delivery governance, reporting, decision points and acceptance criteria for complex technology initiatives.
· Manage dependencies across enterprise applications, data, integration, infrastructure, cyber security and business teams.
· Provide clear status, risk, financial and decision reporting to senior stakeholders.
**Technical Delivery and Assurance
**· Lead delivery from discovery and design through build, testing, deployment, transition and stabilization.
· Understand and review application, API, integration, cloud, data, security and DevOps designs at a level sufficient to identify gaps and challenge assumptions.
· Facilitate technical decisions, ensure architecture reviews are completed and track non-functional requirements.
· Drive SIT, UAT, performance, security, cutover, release and production-readiness activities.
· Ensure operational handover includes support models, documentation, monitoring, service levels and knowledge transfer.
**Vendor and Team Management
**· Lead multidisciplinary internal teams and external delivery partners across regions.
· Validate estimates, plans, technical proposals, resource models and supplier deliverables.
· Manage commercial commitments, delivery performance, risks, issues and corrective actions.
· Build internal delivery capability and reduce avoidable dependency on external suppliers.
· Promote agile, transparent and outcome-based ways of working while applying appropriate delivery controls.
**Formal Education & Certification
**· Degree or equivalent experience in technology, engineering, information systems or a related discipline.
