** About

The Role
** The Senior Delivery Manager is responsible for the leadership, assurance and performance of Boldyn’s delivery functions across multiple projects and programmes. Operating as the senior member of the delivery team, the Senior Delivery Manager provides structured oversight, management and coaching to ensure all delivery activity meets time, cost, quality and safety targets. Reporting to the Head of Delivery, this role acts as the primary link between project delivery, commercial control and technical assurance.

The Senior Delivery Manager holds responsibility for ensuring that risks are identified early, mitigations are actioned and programme recovery plans are executed decisively. They drive consistent application of Boldyn’s delivery frameworks and act as the quality gate between design, construction and handover. The role spans planning, design, mobilisation, construction and operational readiness, ensuring each project moves through phase control with precision and traceability.  

The Senior Delivery Manager champions compliance with Health & Safety and CDM Regulations or equivalent safety regulations, holds a strong command of commercial and contractual obligations and enforces disciplined change control. They are the trusted senior lead who ensures Boldyn does not fail on delivery — setting standards, auditing performance and maintaining a culture of discipline and accountability. By supporting and developing Delivery Managers, they strengthen overall delivery capability, enhance commercial awareness and protect Boldyn’s reputation for quality, safety and reliability.
