A rare opportunity to step into a high-impact, greenfield role and build an organisation-wide delivery model from the ground up. As Senior Manager, Delivery, you’ll partner with the Strategy team, Executive Leadership, and business units across Technology, Operations, Product, Legal, Risk & Compliance, and Sales & Marketing to bring clarity, prioritisation, and discipline to how initiatives are delivered.
You’ll be joining a business with a strong strategy and ambitious priorities, and at a time where there is a real opportunity to strengthen and mature how delivery happens. The foundations are in place, but there is scope to embed consistency, discipline, and scalability across initiatives, making this a role where you can create immediate impact and lasting value.
INCLUDED IN WHAT YOU’LL DO:
- Lead and own the organisation-wide delivery framework, ensuring strategic initiatives are delivered and ongoing improvements are driven in close collaboration with senior leadership.
- Partner cross-functionally with Technology, Operations, Product, Risk, and Commercial teams to align priorities and drive end-to-end delivery.
- Manage prioritisation forums and governance structures, ensuring clear decisions, accountability, and value realisation.
- Oversee the successful scoping, resourcing, and execution of programs and projects across the business.
- Maintain a central view of initiatives, delivery risks, interdependencies, and resource capacity.
- Lead escalation and resolution of risks and blockers, enabling course correction when needed.
- Build capability in delivery practices, working closely with your Business Analyst (direct report) and scaling the team over time.
- Embed a collaborative, pragmatic, and outcomes-driven culture that improves how the business plans, prioritises, and executes.
WHAT YOU HAVE:
- 7+ years’ experience in program/project delivery, with a track record leading cross-functional initiatives across strategy, technology, operations, and commercial teams.
- Strong stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to influence and collaborate with senior executives while building trust at all levels of the business.
- Experience managing delivery portfolios, aligning strategic priorities with operational execution, and making trade-offs for maximum business impact.
- Deep understanding of delivery governance, risk management, dependencies, and resource/capacity planning.
- Practical, pragmatic approach to program management, confident in agile, waterfall, or hybrid methods, but not rigidly tied to one framework.
- Strong commercial acumen and risk awareness, able to balance business value with constraints.
- Background in financial services (essential) specifically asset finance, fleet management, or novated leasing (highly desirable)
- Hands-on experience working across both large, complex organisations and smaller, more agile environments, comfortable rolling up your sleeves when needed, while also navigating enterprise-level governance and stakeholder forums.
- Project/program management certification (e.g. PMP, PRINCE2) and exposure to change and continuous improvement frameworks (e.g. Lean Six Sigma, Prosci/ADKAR) highly regarded.
