Job Description
Head of Delivery
n
Enterprise SaaS | Sydney CBD
n
Lead the delivery function that defines how enterprise technology gets delivered.
n
This is not a "keep the lights on" delivery leadership role.
n
This is an opportunity to take ownership of a growing delivery practice within a fast-scaling insurance technology business — shaping the standards, commercial performance, customer outcomes, and leadership capability that will define the next stage of growth.
n
We're looking for a commercially minded delivery leader who knows how to operate at both strategic and operational levels.
n
Someone who has led complex enterprise software implementations, understands the realities of consulting/vendor delivery environments, and knows how to build scalable delivery capability without losing customer trust along the way.
n
You'll oversee all regional customer implementations while also defining the methodologies, governance, resource planning, delivery standards, and commercial discipline behind successful delivery outcomes.
n
This role will suit someone who thrives in environments where:
n
n
- delivery complexity is increasing
n
- customers expect strategic partnership, not just project management
n
- teams need structure, clarity, and accountability
n
- commercial outcomes matter just as much as delivery quality
n
n
What You'll Own

Delivery Leadership
n
n
- Lead all customer platform implementations across the region
n
- Provide both hands-on oversight and leadership across the delivery function
n
- Drive successful delivery outcomes across multiple enterprise customers and programs
n
n
Delivery Practice & Capability
n
n
- Define and continuously improve delivery methodologies, governance, tools, reporting, and operational standards
n
- Build scalable delivery frameworks across both Agile and Waterfall environments
n
- Uplift delivery capability, resource planning, and skills maturity across the team
n
- Embed strong risk, issue, and change management practices
n
n
Customer & Commercial Ownership
n
n
- Build trusted relationships with senior customer stakeholders
n
- Navigate complex delivery environments with confidence and credibility
n
- Balance customer outcomes with commercial accountability and delivery profitability
n
- Escalate and manage delivery risks proactively before they become customer issues
n
n
Leadership & Influence
n
n
- Partner closely with executive leadership on delivery strategy, resourcing, and operational priorities
n
- Create clarity in ambiguous environments
n
- Lead through influence, accountability, and collaboration
n
n
About You
n
You're likely coming from a:
n
n
- software vendor
n
- SaaS platform
n
- consulting
n
- professional services
n
- insurance technology environment
n
n
And you've spent years leading large-scale enterprise technology delivery where customer management, commercial outcomes, and delivery execution all sit under your remit.
n
You'll bring:
n
n
- Experience leading complex software delivery programs across multiple customers/accounts
n
- Strong experience across both Agile and Waterfall delivery models
n
- A track record of improving delivery practices, governance, and operational maturity
n
- Strong commercial acumen and the ability to make commercially sound delivery decisions
n
- Experience operating within insurance or financial services technology environments
n
- Exceptional stakeholder management and communication skills
n
- Confidence managing ambiguity, competing priorities, and executive-level conversations
n
- A leadership style that combines accountability, collaboration, and high standards
n
n
Why This Role?
n
Shape the Function: This is a genuine opportunity to define how delivery operates — not simply inherit existing processes.
n
Strategic Leadership Impact: You'll sit close to executive leadership and influence operational, commercial, and customer outcomes at scale.
n
Complex, Enterprise Delivery: Work on large-scale insurance technology implementations with sophisticated customers and meaningful delivery challenges.
n
