H2R Technology is on the lockout for an Engagement & Delivery Lead. This is a consulting-led delivery leadership role responsible for the execution and commercial health of client engagements.
  
You will work closely with Client Directors, engineering teams, consultants and executive stakeholders from discovery through to execution and ongoing growth. This role offers the opportunity to influence delivery strategy, shape solution direction, and strengthen long-term client partnerships through excellence in execution. 
  
Key Skills & Experience
We are looking for a senior delivery leader who brings a strong blend of consulting capability, technical fluency, and commercial acumen, ideally including:

  • 7+ years’ experience leading technology delivery within a consulting, professional services, or technology environment.
  • Proven success delivering complex engagements across custom software, bespoke application builds, Microsoft ecosystem solutions, or cloud platforms.
  • Strong hands-on capability across project management, business analysis, and product ownership disciplines.
  • Demonstrated ability to build trusted relationships with senior stakeholders and operate as a delivery advisor.
  • Experience shaping and leading discovery engagements, defining scope, and establishing clear execution pathways.
  • Strong commercial awareness, including forecasting, utilisation management, and margin oversight.
  • Confidence operating within Agile, hybrid, or structured delivery environments.
  • Ability to manage multiple concurrent engagements while maintaining delivery quality and engagement health.
  • Experience contributing to pricing, resourcing, and engagement structuring decisions.
  • PMP, PRINCE2, or Agile certifications (desirable).

Expected Deliverables
In this role, you will contribute to and be accountable for a broad range of engagement outcomes, including:

  • Engagement planning, delivery roadmaps, and structured execution approaches aligned to client objectives.
  • Clearly defined scope, milestones, and delivery governance frameworks.
  • Forecasting models, burn tracking, and commercial performance reporting.
  • Risk registers, mitigation strategies, and proactive issue resolution.
  • Discovery outputs including problem definition, solution framing, and transition-to-delivery plans.
  • Backlog shaping, prioritisation frameworks, and milestone definitions.
  • Stakeholder updates, steering reporting, and executive-level delivery insights.
  • Delivery quality assurance aligned with consulting and engineering standards.
  • Identification of growth opportunities and roadmap extensions through delivery excellence.
  • Structured handover documentation and transition support where required.

What Success Looks Like

  • Clients view you as a trusted delivery leader and advisor.
  • Engagements deliver measurable business outcomes – not just completed outputs.
  • Delivery performance is commercially healthy, and professionally executed.
  • Teams are aligned, motivated, and supported to perform at their best.
  • Continued partnership and account growth naturally follow strong delivery leadership.
