As a Technology Delivery Manager, you will be responsible for leading the delivery of a diverse portfolio of small change enhancements, improvements and non-standard requests that support both operational efficiency and organisational objectives. 

Acting as the link between business stakeholders, technology teams and third-party suppliers, you will ensure that technology investments deliver genuine value for colleagues and residents.
