[Hiring] Delivery Manager @Tasman Analytics

Role Description

We are hiring a Delivery Manager to:

• Remove the friction that slows down our delivery teams, so that engineers and analysts can stay focused on the work that creates value.
• Work closely with Data Product Managers to translate sprint goals into well-coordinated execution across multiple client engagements.
• Own the operational scaffolding of delivery — keeping processes running smoothly, documentation current, and dependencies clear.
• Use AI tools as a core part of how they work, automating the routine to preserve time and attention for the problems that need human judgment.
• Support the smooth onboarding and offboarding of clients, ensuring the delivery team has everything it needs at every stage of an engagement.

The Delivery Manager's primary purpose is to make our delivery teams more effective. At Tasman, our squads — made up of Data Analysts, Analytics Engineers, and Data Engineers — are focused on high-complexity, high-value client work. They do their best work when priorities are clear, handoffs are clean, and the administrative overhead of delivery is handled. This role exists to make that the consistent reality.

The Delivery Manager works in close partnership with the Data Product Manager. Where the DPM is focused on the client — understanding their needs, shaping the roadmap, and owning the relationship — the Delivery Manager is focused on the team. Taking the sprint goals the DPM has established, they ensure the conditions are right for the squad to hit them: knowing what is blocked, what is about to be blocked, and what process or admin is creating quiet drag. They deeply understand the value of what we deliver, and where we can make trade-offs.

This is our first dedicated delivery hire, and we are deliberately recruiting someone at an early stage of their career who is excited about growing into the role. The strategy and standards will come from the CDO and the DPM; this role brings the execution. What matters is that you are naturally organised, proactively helpful, and genuinely committed to using modern AI tools as a core part of how you work — not as a nice-to-have, but as a fundamental capability.

You will work across multiple active client engagements simultaneously — typically five to eight at any one time. Managing context across these effectively, and building the personal systems to do so, is an important part of the role.

Qualifications

• Some experience in a coordination, project support, or operational role — this does not need to be in tech, but exposure to a fast-moving, project-based environment will be an advantage.
• Proficient with productivity and project management tools such as Notion, Monday, Slack, and Google Workspace, and learns new tools quickly.
• Demonstrated interest in AI tools and can point to concrete ways already using them to work more effectively.
• Able to write clearly and concisely — a significant part of this role involves producing written outputs that others rely on.
• May have a degree, but what matters is a track record of organised, conscientious work and the ability to show how you think.

Requirements

• Maintain the operational health of active projects in our project management tooling (Notion, Monday), keeping tasks, statuses, and documentation current and reliable.
• Run agile ceremonies — standups, retrospectives, sprint reviews — that are lightweight, purposeful, and adapted to the specific rhythms of data teams.
• Own retrospective outputs: capturing actions clearly, following up on them, and ensuring that lessons learned are reflected in how we work next time.
• Develop and maintain the operational playbooks, checklists, and templates that make onboarding new clients and new team members faster and more consistent.
• Identify recurring sources of friction across engagements and bring proposals for improvement to the DPM and CDO.
• Leverage TasmanOS, our internal knowledge system, to improve processes and cross-client working.

Benefits

• Opportunity to work in a fast-paced, growing, remote-first company.
• Genuine input into how we operate as our first dedicated delivery hire.
• Supportive environment for personal and professional growth.
