Job Description
Full job description
At Provoke, were a consulting-led technology partner helping clients move from ideas to impact. We build custom software, unlock the power of M365, and thrive being on the bleeding-edge of Generative and Agentic AI.
We're looking for a hands-on Engagement & Delivery Manager who brings both a consulting mindset and technology-delivery craft to the table. Somone who understands that delivery in a professional services context isn't just about managing tasks, it's about building trust, protecting commercial health, and creating outcomes with amazing teams that clients want to keep coming back for.
This isn't a back-office PM gig.
As an Engagement & Delivery Manager here you'll:
Be the trusted advisor: Shaping delivery strategy & detailed plans, scope, resourcing and client decisions.
Own outcomes, not just outputs: Measuring success by client impact & satisfaction, commercial health, and team growth, not just ticking off milestones.
Blend craft with consulting: Project management, business analysis, and product ownership are tools in your kit, but the real value is how you bring them together for each unique client challenge.
Operate with commercial awareness: From utilisation to margin protection, you'll know how professional services work and why delivery excellence is inseparable from financial health.
Create one-team environments: By leading multi-disciplinary squads across design, engineering, and consulting, ensuring everyone is aligned, respected, and outcome-focused.
Bring a product mindset: By ensuring what's delivered solves real problems, scales, and drives business value.
Who you are:
You've led technology delivery in a professional services or consulting environment, and you understand billable hours, client expectations, and commercial realities.
You can flex between strategic advisor and hands-on driver depending on what the situation demands.
You're comfortable with the unknown: shaping proposals, evaluating solutions early, running discovery, and helping clients clarify their own thinking.
You are a practitioner or from a hands-on consulting / solution delivery background who doesn't mind rolling up sleeves and getting into the thick of things to get the right outcomes.
You have familiarity with negotiating scopes, drafting SOWs, and understand financial metrics in professional services environments.
You understand Agile and hybrid delivery models, but you're pragmatic and can help choose what serves the client best.
You love working in the messy middle where people, technology, and business collide and you thrive on making sense of it all.
Why Provoke?
At Provoke, you won't be hidden behind process charts or buried in back-office projects. Every day here is about partnering with clients who are tackling real challenges and trusting us to help them win. You'll step into the room as a consultant, not just a project manager - shaping conversations, guiding decisions, and seeing the impact of your work land directly in the client's business.
Were values, not buzzword, driven. We drive value by the way we show up for each other and our clients. It means you'll be supported to lead authentically, challenge constructively, and bring your best self to work.
Most importantly, you'll have the space to grow. You'll have the opportunity to shape our delivery frameworks, mentor emerging leaders, and influence how we blend consulting, product-thinking, and technology delivery at Provoke. Your influence will be felt well beyond a single project.
Ready to bring consulting confidence, delivery craft, and commercial acumen together?
Reach out now and help us shape the future of technology delivery at Provoke.
