Job description

ENVIRONMENT:

  • CREATE and own a clear consolidated Investment Technology roadmap as the next Agile Delivery Lead sought by a renowned Independent Asset Management Firm.
  • You will coach teams on Agile best practices and a product mindset; define, embed, and track the metrics and KPIs that will demonstrate meaningful outcomes while sustaining and continuously improving the Agile ways of working across Investment Technology.
  • The successful incumbent will require hands-on experience leading Agile programmes across multiple teams or value streams, ideally in a Financial Services or Investment Management environment including DevSecOps awareness & practical experience embedding Agile practices, supporting Product Owners with backlog prioritisation, and fostering a product mindset across delivery teams.

DUTIES:

  • Roadmap Ownership and Delivery Oversight.
  • Agile Practices and Product Mindset.
  • Stakeholder Engagement and Strategic Leadership.

REQUIREMENTS:

  • Proven Agile delivery leadership – hands-on experience leading Agile programmes across multiple teams or value streams, ideally in a Financial Services or Investment Management environment.
  • Road mapping and portfolio co-ordination skills – the ability to consolidate delivery across complex, interdependent workstreams into a single, coherent view that is credible at both team and executive level.
  • Stakeholder confidence – a track record of engaging senior sponsors and leadership with clarity, translating delivery data into narrative that drives decisions rather than just reporting status.
  • Agile coaching experience – practical experience embedding Agile practices, supporting Product Owners with backlog prioritisation, and fostering a product mindset across delivery teams.
  • Cross-functional collaboration skills – comfort working across technology, investment, and business teams, managing dependencies and removing blockers without direct authority.
  • DevSecOps awareness – familiarity with continuous integration and delivery principles and the ability to champion their adoption within value stream teams.
  • A data-driven approach to delivery – experience defining and tracking KPIs and delivery metrics that demonstrate outcomes rather than just activity.
  • Proficiency with AI and productivity tools – comfortable using AI-assisted tools for planning, reporting, and analysis to enhance the efficiency and quality of delivery oversight.

ATTRIBUTES:

  • A strategic thinker with proven experience in complex, cross-value-stream delivery environments.
  • An exceptional communicator – clear, transparent, and effective with both technical teams and senior stakeholders.
  • Curious, adaptable, and comfortable navigating ambiguity and challenge.
  • Takes initiative and looks for new ways to improve existing processes and practices.
