Are you looking for a delivery role that gives you the opportunity to be part of a team delivering digital services that make your mark on one of the world's leading education institutions? The University of Cambridge is looking for a Senior Delivery Manager.

Who you'll be working with 

Delivery Managers work closely with product managers, developers, designers and business analysis from UIS as well as subject matter experts across the university. 

What you will do 

This role is initially required to manage delivery in the product team which supports the University's important work to attract and admit postgraduate students, and in future you may be asked to support other work in our teams supporting the University's world class education and research. 

 What you will need 

  • You will have proven experience managing digital products and services through the full lifecycle as a delivery manager / scrum master / agile project manager.
  • You'll have worked as part of a cross-functional in-house product team / squad with development and operations integrated (DevOps).

What we can offer 

  • A salary of up to £59,966 (depending on experience).
  • 41 days holiday per year including bank holidays.
  • A generous pension.
  • Hybrid working - the team meets in the office once per week but we support a mix of in-office and remote working.
  • A friendly and supportive team environment.
  • The opportunity to shape and influence how we work. 

We support flexible and family-friendly working and are open to non-standard working patterns.
