What You’ll Do
- Engage with senior stakeholders and provide clear communication whilst showcasing your ability to build credibility and trust with both stakeholders and delivery teams, including in remote-first environments.
- Manage client relationships as the main point of contact for client delivery, using strong interpersonal skills and clear, evidence-based, timely communication to develop trust and build an excellent working relationship.
- Own the delivery of tightly scoped and large scale projects, managing scope and risks to ensure delivery in line with our contractual commitments.
- Run discovery activities with clients, either during pre-sales activity or within engagements, to elicit our clients’ high-level business objectives and create the delivery roadmap, collaborating with business and technology stakeholders.
- Ensure roadmaps are prioritised by both business value and risk, to ensure that delivery teams are able to deliver a first release early and then continue to deliver value as frequently as daily from then on.
- Setup, maintain and ensure consistent use of appropriate communication channels for client engagements, such as daily stand-ups, storyboards, show-and-tells and workshops.
- Accurately monitor client engagements with appropriate project reporting metrics, health checks, risk management and facilitated channels. This will include weekly and monthly reports or dashboards for playback to relevant stakeholders and DCSL Guidesmiths Directors, incorporating budget requirements, resourcing needs and delivery outcomes as well as summarising issues and risks.

- Identify capability and training needs, providing coaching to DCSL Guidesmiths and client staff where necessary. Facilitate continuous improvement of delivery teams, using retrospectives and feedback to promote agile methods.
- Improve the delivery team’s ability to achieve contractual commitments and meet deadlines by diplomatically protecting teams from unproductive distractions such as ad-hoc and unstructured stakeholder meetings; instead establish structured engagement with clients and teams using structured techniques and processes including story boards (using digital project collaboration tools), backlog grooming, sprint planning, ‘three amigos’, show-and-tells.
- Ensure invoicing accurately corresponds to project resource time.
