About the Role

The role of Senior Technical Delivery Manager (known internally as Senior Delivery Manager) currently sits within the Engineering Profession in Digital Services. The successful candidate will be based in a multi-disciplinary team requiring collaboration across the team and with key stakeholders from across the University.

This role will initially be assigned to a specific area such as Student support and administration (SSA) group, Data, or Core Services but may be redeployed to other teams or domains in future, depending on organisational needs. The core responsibilities and expectations will remain consistent with the role’s.

Key Responsibilities

Manage the end-to-end delivery of high impact projects or programs, within multi-disciplinary teams, that will be delivering complex digital products and services to stakeholders.
Ensure agile delivery practices are applied effectively to meet organisational goals.
Ensure delivery aligns with strategic priorities and stakeholder expectations.
Plan, schedule, prioritise and manage work effectively and deliver to agreed timelines.
Identify and mitigate risks, blockers, and dependencies across teams.
Use agile tools (e.g. Jira, Azure DevOps) to manage workflows and reporting.

Stakeholder management & reporting

Communicate delivery progress, risks, and outcomes clearly and effectively.
Influence decision-making through data-driven insights and delivery metrics.
Ensure transparency of delivery outcomes to senior leadership.
Build strong relationships with product owners, business leads, and technical teams.
Work with leadership to identify and mobilise resources required for the product/project/program.

Line management

Provide line management to Delivery Managers and/or other team members, including performance development, coaching, career progression, and wellbeing support.
Foster a high-performing, inclusive culture that aligns with organisational values and delivery excellence.

Continuous improvement

Be an active contributor to the Delivery Practice.
Collaborate with stakeholders and team members to ensure we achieve the intended outcomes whilst delivering efficiently.

Experience of working in multidisciplinary teams (large and small) delivering a specific product, service or transformation.
Support financial planning and monitor delivery spend (if applicable) to ensure alignment with project goals.
Have an understanding of Product Management, Service Design and development practices – although this may not be your specialty.
Skilled at building trust, managing team dynamics and motivating people.

Desirable:

Experience of working with different delivery frameworks.
Experience of Coaching and mentoring.

Experience of supplier management in ensuring third-party performance alignment to delivery objectives.

Behaviours:

Communication: Communicates effectively with a variety of audiences; negotiates well and appropriately manages conflict.
Initiative and problem solving: Uses initiative to identify and solve problems proactively; uses good judgment to refer issues upwards as necessary and identifies and manages risk.
Team work: Builds respectful and productive working relationships and works collaboratively across organisational boundaries towards common goals.

What's in it for you?

At The Open University, we offer a range of benefits to recognise and reward great work, alongside policies and flexible working that contribute towards a great work life balance.

Flexible working

We are open to discussions about flexible working. Whether it’s a job share, part time, compressed hours or another working arrangement. Please reach out to us to discuss what works best for you.

It is anticipated that a hybrid working pattern can be adopted for this role, where the successful candidate can work from home and the office. However, as this role is contractually aligned to our Milton Keynes office it is expected that some attendance in the office will be required when necessary and in response to business needs. We’d anticipate this to be on average two to three times per month.

Next steps in the Recruitment process

We anticipate that interviews for this role will be taking place online via Microsoft Teams during the week commencing 22 June 2026.

Early closing date notification

We may close this job advert earlier than the published closing date where a satisfactory number of applications are received. We would therefore encourage early applications.

How to apply

To apply for this role please submit the following documents:

CV, including how you meet the skills and experience required.
A personal statement of up to 500 words expressing why you are interested in the role and explaining how your skills and experience would support you in the role.
