Delivery Manager - Systems Integration
Location:
London / Hybrid
Salary: £53,000 - £61,000
Contract:
12-month Fixed Term Contract
The Opportunity
. We are looking for an experienced Delivery Manager to take ownership of multiple systems integration work streams within a complex technology environment.
This is a hands‑on delivery role requiring genuine experience of managing systems integrations through middleware/integration platforms. You don’t need experience of a particular technology stack or sector, but you must have personally owned the delivery of integration projects rather than simply supported them through PMO or governance.
Experience of legacy integrations, cloud environments and migrating integrations from one middleware platform to another would be particularly valuable.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Own and drive multiple systems integration work streams from planning through to go-live and BAU.
- Manage integration delivery across middleware platforms, APIs, cloud and legacy systems.
- Coordinate developers, engineers, architects, business stakeholders and third‑party suppliers.
- Manage delivery through the SDLC, including requirements, design, development, testing, deployment and operational handover.
- Identify and actively manage technical risks, issues and dependencies.
- Anticipate potential delivery problems and ensure appropriate mitigation is in place.
- Escalate significant risks and issues at the right time, with clear impact and recommended actions.
- Maintain delivery plans, priorities, resources and dependencies across concurrent work streams.
- Ensure lessons and root causes from previous integrations inform future delivery.
What We’re Looking For. At least 5 years’ hands‑on project/delivery management experience specifically within systems integration.
- Demonstrable experience personally owning and delivering integration projects.
- Experience working with middleware or integration platforms within cloud‑based environments.
- Good practical understanding of APIs, middleware, integration patterns and technical dependencies.
- Experience managing integration delivery through the full SDLC.
- Legacy integration and/or middleware migration experience would be highly desirable.
- Strong risk, issue and dependency management skills.
- Ability to understand technical delivery risks without needing to be a developer.
- Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple integration work streams.
- Excellent communication and stakeholder management across technical teams, the business, senior stakeholders and suppliers.
- Good judgement - able to take ownership of problems while recognising when an issue needs escalating.
About you. You are someone who understands what is really happening across their projects - not simply whether milestones are red or green. You’ll know where the key risks and dependencies sit, what problems may be coming, what is being done to mitigate them and when stakeholders need to be involved. If you have personally owned the delivery of complex systems integrations and are comfortable getting into the technical detail required to drive successful delivery, we’d like to hear from you.
