Salary: £88,500 to £99,700 with profit share £21,000 and £29,000 Softwire is one of the UK's leading digital technology consultancies, offering services in software engineering, design, innovation, cloud, mobile and data. We deliver high-profile and cutting-edge digital projects for household names across the public and private sectors. Softwire was founded on one simple idea: if we can create the best possible culture and working environment then everything else will fall into place. And it seems to be working - We were recently voted number 1 company to work for in the UK at the Best Company awards, and we have a loyal and growing client base who trust us with their hardest problems and their mission critical projects. We focus on creating a great culture and working environment and we are looking for people who share our core beliefs about what makes a great place to work: That if a job is worth doing, it's worth doing properly. That work should be fulfilling but can also be fun. That kindness matters and should be extended to employees and clients alike. That by being trusting and trustworthy as an organisation and as individuals we can dispense with tedious bureaucracy and rules. When you work with Softwire, you're not only becoming part of a team with in-depth technical skills and delivery expertise - you'll be working in a high-trust environment alongside skilled, kind, fun people who are passionate about creating amazing services and experiences that solve real problems. In brief We're looking for people who have a track record of successfully delivering bespoke software development projects in an agency setting; people who can own all aspects of that delivery: commercial,team, project vision, project delivery, and client management. We are looking for team-players who are experienced people managers, and whohave strong clientempathy and client management skills. We also valueexposure to pre-sales, and provide opportunities to make use of, or grow, pre-sales and account experience. In return, we can offer interesting projects with brilliant clients, high levels of autonomy and ownership, and strong - and stretching - management support. You'll have the opportunity to try new things - whether they be skills you're developing, or new initiatives that improve our processes or company culture. And you'll receive a competitive package and profit share whilst you do so. The role We arelooking for experienced Delivery Principals to lead a portfolio of projects and engagements for our Public Sector clients.Delivery Principals are accountable for the commercial, delivery and team performance of our projects and programmes of work. Delivery Principals report to (and work closely with) Delivery Directors, who are responsible for portfolio performance and account management of the clients. Principals are part of Softwire's Senior Management Team and work together to support the Exec board in shaping the company's operation and its relationship with employees and clients. The key responsibilities of the role are: Deliveringhigh value services to our clients As a Delivery Principal, you are accountable for the success of projects. You'll lead delivery - either directly, or more often through managing delivery, technical and design leads. You'll be responsible for ensuring client satisfaction, while also meeting Softwire's commercial goals, and ensuring a happy team. To do so, you'll be empowered to guide clients through the delivery process, shaping the engagement for success from the first meetings, and resourcing the team. You'll inspire trust with senior stakeholders, acting as the most senior line of project escalation for any issues, and have broad discretion on how to solve them. You may do this on a programme of work spanning thousands of days of effort, or on a portfolio of smaller projects with independent delivery leads. In each case, the majority of your time will be value-adding, and chargeable to the projects. Accelerating the careers of others Delivery Principals are highly experienced people managers. They bring experience in forming and leading multi-disciplinary teams. They bring out the best in the people they're responsible for, both through strong line management of Delivery Leads, and by supporting the resourcing and progression of others on their projects. You are expected to take responsibility for the "performance contract" of multiple employees - setting expectations and challenges, providing support and feedback, and ensuring appropriate reward upon delivery. You will also help your Delivery Leads mentor and manage more junior colleagues of their own. You may also choose to be involved in providing career mentoring for more junior colleagues, or providing or commissioning knowledge-sharing or other training initiatives. Generating additional business for Softwire As Softwire's most senior delivery staff, Delivery Principals are very capable in front of both existing and prospective clients. You should inspire confidence and impress not only through your expertise, but through seeing the bigger picture. You will look for opportunities to build and expand existing accounts. For example, this will include: Ensuring clients receive - and, crucially, feel that they have received - an excellent service fromSoftwire, so they are motivated to bring repeat business and/or recommend our services to others. Meeting prospective clients, devising project plans and technical approaches, preparing written proposals and in-person pitches. Thinking beyond your immediate remit on a project to understand how Softwire can make it a success and where else we might be able to provide value to a client.

Salary: £88,500 to £99,700 with profit share £21,000 and £29,000 Softwire is one of the UK's leading digital technology consultancies, offering services in software engineering, design, innovation, cloud, mobile and data. We deliver high-profile and cutting-edge digital projects for household names across the public and private sectors. Softwire was founded on one simple idea: if we can create the best possible culture and working environment then everything else will fall into place. And it seems to be working - We were recently voted number 1 company to work for in the UK at the Best Company awards, and we have a loyal and growing client base who trust us with their hardest problems and their mission critical projects. We focus on creating a great culture and working environment and we are looking for people who share our core beliefs about what makes a great place to work: That if a job is worth doing, it's worth doing properly. That work should be fulfilling but can also be fun. That kindness matters and should be extended to employees and clients alike. That by being trusting and trustworthy as an organisation and as individuals we can dispense with tedious bureaucracy and rules. When you work with Softwire, you're not only becoming part of a team with in-depth technical skills and delivery expertise - you'll be working in a high-trust environment alongside skilled, kind, fun people who are passionate about creating amazing services and experiences that solve real problems. In brief We're looking for people who have a track record of successfully delivering bespoke software development projects in an agency setting; people who can own all aspects of that delivery: commercial,team, project vision, project delivery, and client management. We are looking for team-players who are experienced people managers, and whohave strong clientempathy and client management skills. We also valueexposure to pre-sales, and provide opportunities to make use of, or grow, pre-sales and account experience. In return, we can offer interesting projects with brilliant clients, high levels of autonomy and ownership, and strong - and stretching - management support. You'll have the opportunity to try new things - whether they be skills you're developing, or new initiatives that improve our processes or company culture. And you'll receive a competitive package and profit share whilst you do so. The role We arelooking for experienced Delivery Principals to lead a portfolio of projects and engagements for our Public Sector clients.Delivery Principals are accountable for the commercial, delivery and team performance of our projects and programmes of work. Delivery Principals report to (and work closely with) Delivery Directors, who are responsible for portfolio performance and account management of the clients. Principals are part of Softwire's Senior Management Team and work together to support the Exec board in shaping the company's operation and its relationship with employees and clients. The key responsibilities of the role are: Deliveringhigh value services to our clients As a Delivery Principal, you are accountable for the success of projects. You'll lead delivery - either directly, or more often through managing delivery, technical and design leads. You'll be responsible for ensuring client satisfaction, while also meeting Softwire's commercial goals, and ensuring a happy team. To do so, you'll be empowered to guide clients through the delivery process, shaping the engagement for success from the first meetings, and resourcing the team. You'll inspire trust with senior stakeholders, acting as the most senior line of project escalation for any issues, and have broad discretion on how to solve them. You may do this on a programme of work spanning thousands of days of effort, or on a portfolio of smaller projects with independent delivery leads. In each case, the majority of your time will be value-adding, and chargeable to the projects. Accelerating the careers of others Delivery Principals are highly experienced people managers. They bring experience in forming and leading multi-disciplinary teams. They bring out the best in the people they're responsible for, both through strong line management of Delivery Leads, and by supporting the resourcing and progression of others on their projects. You are expected to take responsibility for the "performance contract" of multiple employees - setting expectations and challenges, providing support and feedback, and ensuring appropriate reward upon delivery. You will also help your Delivery Leads mentor and manage more junior colleagues of their own. You may also choose to be involved in providing career mentoring for more junior colleagues, or providing or commissioning knowledge-sharing or other training initiatives. Generating additional business for Softwire As Softwire's most senior delivery staff, Delivery Principals are very capable in front of both existing and prospective clients. You should inspire confidence and impress not only through your expertise, but through seeing the bigger picture. You will look for opportunities to build and expand existing accounts. For example, this will include: Ensuring clients receive - and, crucially, feel that they have received - an excellent service fromSoftwire, so they are motivated to bring repeat business and/or recommend our services to others. Meeting prospective clients, devising project plans and technical approaches, preparing written proposals and in-person pitches. Thinking beyond your immediate remit on a project to understand how Softwire can make it a success and where else we might be able to provide value to a client. It may also include: Taking the lead on key sales bids, understanding clients' problems and shaping our response to them Attracting business to Softwire through your personal reputation in the industry -e.g.thought leadership, speaking at conferences, and personal networks. Youbring extensive experience of successfully delivering large software development projects within the public sector directly or via agency experience and a broad skillset that lets you understand and spot risks, and address issues in whatever areas a projectdemands.
