I am working with a vastly growing software product company in Edinburgh and London who are looking to recruit multiple (3) Software Delivery Manager's. The company: They are a thriving software company, focused on a specific market featuring heavily in the news currently. They have offices in both London and Edinburgh, and have experienced vast growth over the past 12 months. They focus on designing and building software across a huge industry and these roles are sitting amongst three main products. They are hiring due to an internal restructure and have decided that having these Delivery Managers in place will help each individual software team and ultimately, their products. In relation to where you will work, this will be a combination of home based (large majority) and some office working. The teams you will work in are split geographically, so some of these teams need more face time than others. Each role will likely not be 100% home working, so flexibility to get to the Edinburgh or London office is important. The role: In this role, you will be responsible for a few different areas. The role is a combination of Project Management and people management, looking after a team of Developers ranging from 8 up to 15 (varied). There are 3 different software teams to hire into, with one team only having one direct report and another team, five. On top of the team management, you will be responsible for managing end-to-end technical delivery projects through effective estimation and planning, management of resources, leading stand-ups and retrospectives, risk mitigation strategies and measuring team performance. You will also work closely alongside the Product Managers, Product Owners and Business Analyst's to shape and deliver technology solutions across the business. The Product function is separate for the team you look after and they are responsible for the product roadmap. It would also be ideal if you can demonstrate expertise in managing software development projects using Agile methods, as this is predominantly the methodology they use (largely Scrum). I would stress that this person doesn't have to come from a technical software background (there is enough strength for this in the current team), but more so experience of managing the software delivery lifecycle. As a final element, you will also wear the Scrum Master hat in the team, facilitating ceremonies on a daily basis. Your background: ** Strong software delivery experience and project management ** Experience in leading and managing a software team (4 up to 20) ** Ideally strong Agile and Scrum knowledge ** Experience of managing daily Scrum ceremonies ** Background in a senior Software Delivery role, working for a software or technology/product company ** Strong appreciation of modern software engineering and associated development technologies and the full software development lifecycle ** As a Delivery Manager, you will be responsible for risk management and strategy and timelines, commitments to customers as well as quarterly releases for software ** Experience in making sure releases are out on time and supporting custom builds, making sure they are on time and on budget This is an opportunity to work with a thriving and employee-first organisation. You will get to work on some largescale projects and with some huge organisations, whilst leading and working alongside some very bright minds. If you are interested, please apply or call Hamish at Cathcart Associates for a chat.

I am working with a vastly growing software product company in Edinburgh and London who are looking to recruit multiple (3) Software Delivery Manager's. The company: They are a thriving software company, focused on a specific market featuring heavily in the news currently. They have offices in both London and Edinburgh, and have experienced vast growth over the past 12 months.

They are hiring due to an internal restructure and have decided that having these Delivery Managers in place will help each individual software team and ultimately, their products. In relation to where you will work, this will be a combination of home based (large majority) and some office working. The teams you will work in are split geographically, so some of these teams need more face time than others. Each role will likely not be 100% home working, so flexibility to get to the Edinburgh or London office is important. The role: In this role, you will be responsible for a few different areas. The role is a combination of Project Management and people management, looking after a team of Developers ranging from 8 up to 15 (varied). There are 3 different software teams to hire into, with one team only having one direct report and another team, five. On top of the team management, you will be responsible for managing end-to-end technical delivery projects through effective estimation and planning, management of resources, leading stand-ups and retrospectives, risk mitigation strategies and measuring team performance. You will also work closely alongside the Product Managers, Product Owners and Business Analyst's to shape and deliver technology solutions across the business. The Product function is separate for the team you look after and they are responsible for the product roadmap. It would also be ideal if you can demonstrate expertise in managing software development projects using Agile methods, as this is predominantly the methodology they use (largely Scrum). I would stress that this person doesn't have to come from a technical software background (there is enough strength for this in the current team), but more so experience of managing the software delivery lifecycle. As a final element, you will also wear the Scrum Master hat in the team, facilitating ceremonies on a daily basis. Your background: ** Strong software delivery experience and project management ** Experience in leading and managing a software team (4 up to 20) ** Ideally strong Agile and Scrum knowledge ** Experience of managing daily Scrum ceremonies ** Background in a senior Software Delivery role, working for a software or technology/product company ** Strong appreciation of modern software engineering and associated development technologies and the full software development lifecycle ** As a Delivery Manager, you will be responsible for risk management and strategy and timelines, commitments to customers as well as quarterly releases for software ** Experience in making sure releases are out on time and supporting custom builds, making sure they are on time and on budget This is an opportunity to work with a thriving and employee-first organisation. You will get to work on some largescale projects and with some huge organisations, whilst leading and working alongside some very bright minds. If you are interested, please apply or call Hamish at Cathcart Associates for a chat.

I am working with a vastly growing software product company in Edinburgh and London who are looking to recruit multiple (3) Software Delivery Manager's. The company: They are a thriving software company, focused on a specific market featuring heavily in the news currently. They have offices in both London and Edinburgh, and have experienced vast growth over the past 12 months. They focus on designing and building software across a huge industry and these roles are sitting amongst three main products. They are hiring due to an internal restructure and have decided that having these Delivery Managers in place will help each individual software team and ultimately, their products. In relation to where you will work, this will be a combination of home based (large majority) and some office working.
