What is this role?

This is a Delivery Manager role leading Agile teams that build and deliver digital software used by the Army.

You’ll work within the Army Software House (ASH), a specialist organisation designing and delivering bespoke digital products that support the Army’s modernisation and transformation.

Why this role matters

The Army is modernising how it uses data, software and technology, and this role sits at the heart of that change.

Your work will:

  • Support mission‑critical digital services

  • Enable data‑driven decision‑making

  • Contribute to the Army’s long‑term operational effectiveness

This is delivery with real‑world impact, not theory.

What you’ll be doing

As a Delivery Manager, you will:

  • Lead Agile delivery teams from discovery through to live service

  • Remove blockers and keep delivery moving at pace

  • Manage suppliers, contracts and delivery risks

  • Work with senior stakeholders across the Army and MOD

  • Oversee the full software development lifecycle

  • Improve delivery processes and ways of working

  • Report clearly on progress, risks and dependencies

You’ll be trusted to lead high‑impact, high‑responsibility programmes.

Candidate profile

Who this role is for

This role could be a great fit if you:

  • Have experience delivering digital or IT projects

  • Are comfortable leading Agile or Scrum teams

  • Can manage suppliers and complex stakeholder landscapes

  • Enjoy working in fast‑paced, high‑pressure environments

  • Like improving systems, processes and delivery outcomes

You don’t need military experience, delivery expertise is what matters.

Skills & background (high level)

We’re looking for experience in areas such as:

  • Delivery management in digital or IT environments

  • Agile ways of working (Scrum, Lean, etc.)

  • Stakeholder and supplier management

  • Governance, controls and value‑for‑money delivery

Knowledge of cloud, DevOps or Defence environments is a bonus, not essential.

Working pattern

  • Based in Andover with hybrid working

  • Collaborative, multi‑disciplinary teams

  • Strong focus on learning and professional development


Working environment

Location: Andover
