Software Development Manager

You’ll lead multiple engineering teams and delivery partners, driving the build and integration of modern, cloud-based platforms while transitioning from Legacy systems.

This is not a hands-on coding role, but equally not a pure programme role - you’ll sit at the intersection of engineering, architecture, and delivery., * Leading end-to-end software delivery across multiple Agile workstreams

• Owning engineering roadmap, timelines, and quality standards
• Managing internal teams and third-party vendors
• Driving best practice across CI/CD, DevOps, and secure development
• Collaborating closely with Product, Architecture, and Programme teams
• Supporting system integration, data migration, and BAU transition

This is a senior leadership role with full ownership of delivery across a large-scale system modernisation programme - ideal for someone who combines strong technical depth with proven delivery leadership., We’re keen to speak with individuals who:

• Have a background in software engineering, now operating at Senior Engineering Manager/Head of Engineering level
• Bring experience delivering large-scale transformation or modernisation programmes
• Are confident leading multi-team, multi-vendor environments
• Can operate comfortably across technical and business stakeholders
• Have strong knowledge of cloud-native architecture, APIs, and DevOps practices
• Experience within financial services or insurance would be advantageous but not essential.
