Private Banking & Wealth Solutions ASP Regional Delivery Lead

We are currently seeking a high calibre professional to join our team as a Private Banking & Wealth Solutions ASP Regional Delivery Lead

In this role you will:

Definition of work

- Manage decomposition of  Private Banking & Wealth Solutions ASP  demand into an actionable delivery backlog and coherent delivery plans.
- Partner with Product Owners/Business Owners to clarify outcomes, scope, hypotheses, acceptance criteria, and key controls.
- Facilitate breakdown into increments (MVP → iterations), ensuring clear ownership, sequencing, and readiness.
- Ensure work enters delivery “ready” (dependencies understood, risks assessed, approach agreed, environments/access in place).

Prioritisation and investment support

- Support prioritisation across Private Banking & Wealth Solutions ASP  capabilities, including preparation of:
- investment case materials / business cases (as required)
- hypothesis statements and outcome measures
- WSJF (or equivalent) scoring and prioritisation packs

- Maintain a transparent prioritisation approach balancing customer value, regulatory commitments, risk reduction and capacity constraints across the  wealth continuum .

Dependencies, risks, issues and assumptions

- Own the RAID log and ensure disciplined identification, mitigation, escalation and closure.
- Proactively manage cross-team and cross-platform dependencies (upstream/downstream), including third parties where relevant.
- Drive early risk sensing and corrective action; escalate through agreed governance paths with clear options and impact.

Delivery governance and forums

- Plan and run delivery governance forums with tight agenda control, decision capture, and action tracking.
- Facilitate (as appropriate): Sprint/Iteration reviews, Scrum-of-Scrums, delivery stand-ups, PI Planning, portfolio syncs, QBR inputs.
- Keep governance lightweight, outcome-focused and audit-friendly (clear traceability from decisions to delivery).

Capacity planning, forecasting and financial hygiene

- Maintain a holistic view of demand vs capacity across squads, geographies, and skill sets.
- Produce delivery forecasts and scenario views (e.g., best/likely/worst) and surface trade-offs early.
- Partner with Engineering Leads and finance stakeholders to align resourcing/funding to agreed priorities.

Delivery reporting and performance insights

- Provide transparent reporting on progress, risks, dependencies, benefits and forecasts.
- Track delivery health and flow metrics (e.g., throughput, cycle time, predictability, defect leakage) and drive improvement actions.
- Enable self-serve reporting where possible, with exception-based reporting for senior stakeholders.

Risk, controls and operational resilience

- Embed risk and control considerations into planning and execution (controls-by-design).
- Ensure required documentation, approvals, evidence capture and auditability are in place for releases.
- Drive operational resilience outcomes: readiness of monitoring, runbooks, support model, incident playbooks, and rollback plans.
 
How We Lead

- Courageous integrity:  raise delivery and control risks early; challenge optimism bias with evidence.
- Deliver at pace:  remove blockers, simplify decision-making, keep focus on highest-value outcomes.
- Inclusive teams:  create space for diverse viewpoints across  Private Banking & Wealth Solutions , Tech and Risk; ensure healthy challenge.
- Collaborate across boundaries:  connect end-to-end value delivery (not “done in dev”).
- Make it happen through others:  enable squads with clarity, cadence and predictable decisioning.

To be successful you will need:

- Agile/Lean delivery leadership (Scrum, Kanban, flow) and pragmatic governance
- Backlog flow management and prioritisation support (incl. WSJF or equivalent)
- RAID management and dependency orchestration across multiple teams
- Senior stakeholder engagement, negotiation and clear communication
- Forecasting, capacity planning and outcome-focused reporting
- Strong control mindset (risk identification, evidence, auditability, resilience)

Experience and qualifications

- Proven Regional Delivery Leadership in a regulated environment (financial services preferred).
- Experience coordinating delivery across multiple squads/teams and locations.
- Demonstrated ability to drive predictability, manage dependencies and land decisions with senior stakeholders.
- Familiarity with change governance, release management and operational readiness.

Success measures

- Predictable delivery against agreed priorities with improving flow metrics.
- RAID is current, owned, and escalations happen early with clear decision options.
- Governance forums are effective, decision-oriented and valued.
- Releases land safely with appropriate controls, documentation and operational readiness.
- Benefits are tracked and realised through adoption, not just delivery.
