You’ll be working across multiple projects and accounts, helping shape outcomes, support your team, and spot opportunities to grow relationships further.
It’s the kind of role that would suit someone who’s come up through software, delivery, consulting, or client services and is used to operating at a senior level someone who can bring a bit of calm, clarity and direction when it’s needed.

A big part of the role is around building trust. You’ll be the person clients turn to when they want a clear view of how things are going, what’s coming next, and where value can be added. At the same time, internally you’ll be leading a small technical/delivery team with different strengths and experience levels, helping them perform at their best without overcomplicating things.
There’s also a commercial side to it, keeping an eye on performance across your accounts, understanding where there’s room to grow, and contributing to conversations around pricing, scope, and new opportunities. Nothing overly heavy, but enough that you feel comfortable having those discussions and adding value.
