Project Manager

We are partnering with a premier social impact organisation to recruit a high-calibre Delivery Manager / Product Lead to drive complex, multi-stakeholder digital transformation initiatives across their portfolio.

📍 Location: Remote-First (1 day a month on-site in London)

Positioned at the intersection of public sector policy, data maturity, and digital innovation, this role empowers you to orchestrate high-impact technology programmes that directly improve lives and transform public services across the UK.

Rather than building tech for tech’s sake, our client’s multidisciplinary teams focus on building scalable infrastructure, national data frameworks, and modern digital capabilities for public and social sector ecosystems.

About the Organisation

Our client designs, funds, and scales innovative solutions to systemic social issues. Operating with the strategic agility of a top consultancy and the purpose-driven ethos of a non-profit, their teams combine deep expertise in data, public policy, and digital delivery.

They foster a highly collaborative, inclusive environment where cross-functional teams work together across key impact areas, including healthcare, children’s services, housing, and skills.

Key Responsibilities

• Programme & Product Delivery: Oversee end-to-end delivery of complex digital tools, data-sharing frameworks, and innovation programmes across external delivery partners.
• Team Leadership: Inspire and coordinate multidisciplinary delivery teams (user research, service design, data engineering, domain specialists) through clarity, influence, and unblocking.
• Stakeholder Management: Cultivate trusted relationships across central government departments, local authorities, healthcare providers, and philanthropic partners.
• Strategic Translation: Translate complex technical concepts into clear strategic choices for non-technical senior leaders to guide confident decision-making.

What We're Looking For

• Digital Transformation Track Record: Proven experience managing data or digital projects/products from discovery to delivery, ideally in or alongside the public or social sector.
• Agile & Product Delivery: Strong grasp of the product lifecycle, user-centred design principles, and modern delivery methods.
• Cross-Functional Communication: Ability to operate as a strong generalist who can rapidly digest new technical domains and bridge technical and non-technical worlds.
• Stakeholder Credibility: Exceptional capability in navigating ambiguity, managing delivery roadmaps, and leading high-level partner relationships.

Why Join?

• Real-World Impact: Work on systemic challenges where delivery directly benefits communities and shapes national policy.
• Variety & Autonomy: Lead diverse initiatives across health, housing, and youth services rather than being restricted to a single product stack.
• Culture & Flexibility: Enjoy a healthy work-life balance with hybrid working, flexible hours, and comprehensive professional development.

If this sounds like an interesting challenge, let's talk! 😊
