Programme Delivery Lead

• Length: 6-month contract
• Banking Sector
• Location: Wellington

About the RoleOur client in the banking sector is well into a multi-year core technology transformation and needs an experienced Technical Programme Delivery Lead to lead technical delivery.
The programme has recently reorganised around three product workstreams that own the end-to-end journey through build, migrate and sell, alongside an enablement workstream.

This is complex, high-pace delivery with minimal onboarding. You will need to bring structure and pace from week one. Key Responsibilities

• Lead technical delivery across the product and enablement workstreams
• Coordinate tight sequencing across multiple dependent technical domains
• Maintain a clear, accurate view of true delivery status, not reported status
• Work in the detail with domain leads to test and strengthen their delivery plans
• Improve delivery flow, governance and decision-making inside an established model, practically and constructively
• Surface the risks and dependencies others miss, early enough to act on them
• Represent the programme at executive level and across programme forums
• Keep the why, the critical dates and the key messages front of mind for delivery teams

What We're Looking For

• Proven experience at a programme level delivering complex, multi-workstream technology programmes
• Strong technical software delivery background, with genuine depth in integration projects and the ability to hold your own in technical detail with domain leads
• Hands-on exposure to event-driven architecture and integration platforms
• Deep banking or financial services experience, ideally on core system transformation
• Strong executive-level stakeholder communication and programme forum representation
• Ability to build context fast and add value with minimal ramp-up
• A practical, "how can we" approach to problem-solving
• Experience across transformation programmes with multiple delivery partners or vendors (advantageous)
• Cloud-based delivery environments (advantageous)
