Position Description

The Project Manager / Technical Delivery Manager is a key role at Antero, where we build SaaS products and deliver bespoke software for our clients. In this role you will own the delivery of client projects from kick-off through to release, working between our engineering team and our clients to make sure work is scoped well, planned realistically and delivered to a high standard.

You will be expected to apply your range of talents wherever necessary across the following areas:

- planning and running Agile delivery across multiple concurrent client projects and retainers, including sprint planning, stand-ups, reviews and retrospectives
- working closely with our financial services clients on Incept, our loan origination and customer onboarding platform, to understand their lending workflows and translate them into clear requirements for the team
- working with clients to scope projects, define requirements and agree priorities, then breaking that work down into estimated, deliverable tickets for the team
- keeping clients focused on agreed priorities and actively managing scope creep, including pushing back constructively and running a explicit change request process when new work comes up
- managing timelines, budgets and resourcing, and raising risks and issues early
- configuring and maintaining JIRA boards, and keeping delivery reporting accurate and up to date
- running client meetings and status updates, and being the main point of contact for delivery questions
- coordinating developers, designers, QA and DevOps so that work flows smoothly through dev, UAT and production environments
- owning release planning and go-live activities,



including UAT sign-off and handover to support
- supporting our security and compliance practices (we hold ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type 2 certification), including change management and delivery documentation
- being on hand to assist any other areas of the business as might be required

Ideally You Will Also Have

- experience in financial services, particularly lending (strongly preferred). You do not need to be a credit expert, but time spent in a lender, broker or finance business, and an understanding of how loan applications move from enquiry through assessment, approval and settlement, will set you apart
- experience delivering software in other regulated industries such as health or aged care
- experience with cloud service providers (eg. AWS, Azure, GCP)

What else can I expect from this role?

As a Project Manager / Technical Delivery Manager at Antero, a large part of your focus will be Incept, our loan origination and customer onboarding platform for financial services. Understanding how our clients assess, approve and manage loans is key to delivering well for them, so a background in finance or lending will help you hit the ground running. You will also be across other products and client engagements, so you will need to be comfortable prioritising competing demands and switching context.



You do not need to be a developer, but you will need enough technical understanding to have credible conversations with engineers and to translate technical detail into plain language for clients (familiarity with web applications, APIs and cloud hosting is a plus).

You will most likely have progressed from a Product Owner, Project Coordinator, BA, QA or Developer role, or already be working as a Project or Delivery Manager in a software or digital agency environment. You will use this experience to keep projects on track, keep clients informed and confident, and help our team do their best work.

How do I know if I qualify for this role?

Capability in this role will be measured via the below activities:

- a demonstration of your experience leading software projects from scoping through to release
- you will be asked to review a project brief and produce a high level delivery plan, including milestones, risks and assumptions
- you will review a easy JIRA project board and complete a planning exercise by grouping items into epics for a release schedule
- you will work through a scenario where a project is behind schedule and explain how you would communicate and manage it with the client

We are constantly looking to find new and better ways of working. Having ideas and experiences of both good and bad delivery methods are great talking points during our discussions. As you can imagine, we want to hear solutions, not just problems.
