We are seeking an experienced and dynamic Delivery Transformation Principal to drive the successful execution and delivery of complex transformation projects and key work-streams.

Act as a trusted delivery advisor, guide stakeholders through technical and delivery trade-offs, and navigate difficult or sensitive conversations with diplomacy.
  • Team Leadership and Program Management: Provide hands-on mentorship and constructive feedback to cross-functional project teams, fostering a culture of continuous learning and accountability. Oversee day-to-day workstream execution, sprint planning, and team operational health, while supporting internal capability building and interviewing.
  • Growth and Business Development: Identify and pursue opportunities for project extension and process improvements within existing accounts. Partner with client leads and solution teams by evaluating statements of work, scoping delivery efforts, and contributing technical delivery insights to proposals.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
