As the Delivery Director, you will play a crucial role in enhancing performance and fostering growth within our portfolio of accounts. Your primary objective will be to ensure exceptional delivery standards, surpassing client expectations, and achieving P&L targets for all provided services. You'll engage closely with senior client stakeholders, acting as the primary liaison for delivery matters, overseeing the smooth onboarding of new project teams, and facilitating the launch of new services. Your leadership will extend to major bids within the Industry Sector, where you'll drive the development of competitive yet robust solutions.
Alongside your oversight duties, you'll actively mentor project and service delivery managers, fostering their professional growth. Your role will involve leveraging established relationships at senior levels to drive expansion strategies for existing accounts and contributing to the estimation and assurance of delivery for bids typically ranging from £1m to £20m. As the Delivery Director, you'll demonstrate leadership in identifying and pursuing sales opportunities for expansion, staying updated on current and future trends shaping the domain specific capability.
Our ideal candidate for the Delivery Director role will be an experienced professional with a track record of full delivery and P&L accountability across a significant client portfolio, exceeding £30m. You should possess a deep understanding of the dynamics and challenges within the Industry Business Unit, coupled with a proven history of successfully delivering large-scale, complex bids within the domain (£20m+). Strong senior stakeholder management skills are essential, as you'll be influencing across a diverse and intricate delivery portfolio.
Key competencies include adeptness in leading distributed teams, familiarity with delivery methodologies such as Agile and Scaled Agile, commercial acumen in pricing models and contracting methods, understanding of procurement and security constraints relevant to the Industry Business Unit, and knowledge of central best practices and operational processes. Your success in this role will be gauged by client satisfaction and P&L performance across the existing delivery portfolio, with personal impact evident in positive client feedback and successful deliveries without escalations requiring senior management intervention.
