Technical Team Lead

We organise around customer-facing team – small, multidisciplinary teams that solve real problems and deliver measurable outcomes.

Each Team Lead owns a defined but evolving area of our technical offering, combining:

• technical capability
• and customer / market application

You are accountable for:

• Delivering projects for customers
• building and leading a high-performing team
• growing your domain through opportunity identification and expansion
• shaping repeatable, commercially valuable approaches

These domains are not fixed. They evolve as we:

• apply existing technologies in new contexts
• expand into new markets
• develop new capabilities

What you’ll do:

1. LEAD CUSTOMER DELIVERY

• Own delivery of projects end-to-end (scope, plan, execution, outcomes)
• Work directly with customers to define problems and shape solutions
• Lead proposals, estimates, and delivery planning
• Manage risks, dependencies, and commercial performance
• Make pragmatic trade-offs between speed, cost, and scalability

2. MANAGE AND DEVELOP A MULTIDISCIPLINARY TEAM

• Line manage a team of up to ~7 people across disciplines
• Run 1:1s, support development, and manage performance
• Build a high-trust, high-performance team environment
• Balance delivery, development, and utilisation

3. DRIVE GROWTH WITHIN YOUR DOMAIN

• Identify and develop opportunities within customer engagements
• Expand successful work across client organisations
• (e.g. additional sites, teams, or use cases)
• Act as a clear point of contact for Business Development within your domain
• Contribute to proposals and commercial development
• Contribute to improving delivery efficiency over time

4. OWN PRODUCT THINKING WITHIN YOUR DOMAIN

• Take responsibility for a defined but evolving area of our technical offering
• Combine technical capability with real-world application to create value
• Identify where delivery work can become repeatable, scalable approaches
• Shape these into reusable plays, methods, and assets
• Assess commercial viability – not just technical interest
• Collaborate with other teams where capabilities overlap or extend
• (e.g. shared technologies or new market applications)

5. WORK WITH TECHNICAL LEADERSHIP

• Partner with Chief Engineers on solution architecture
• Work with Technical Community Leads on standards, skills, and capability
• Ensure delivery aligns with best practice and evolving capability

How We Work

• Fast iteration and real-world testing over perfect plans
• Pragmatic decisions over heavy process
• High-trust, high-autonomy teams
• Continuous improvement in how we deliver

AI Mindset

• AI is part of how we deliver – not a separate activity.
• You actively use AI tools in your day-to-day work
• You look for ways AI can improve delivery and customer outcomes
• You are curious about how AI changes how work is done

This is asset-backed consulting, not standalone software products

If you are not actively engaging with AI, this role is unlikely to be a fit

What We’re Looking For

• Strong experience leading customer-facing technical projects
• Degree in a relevant discipline, i.e. Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical discipline, or qualified by equivalent industry experience
• Experience of working within a consultancy environment is beneficial
• Comfortable working across disciplines (engineering, data, software)
• Experience managing and developing people
• Strong communication – able to simplify complexity
• Commercial awareness and pragmatic decision-making
• Ability to identify and shape opportunities with customers

Why This Role

• Lead real, high-impact work with real customers
• Own and grow a meaningful domain within the business
• Combine delivery, leadership, and product thinking
• Help shape how we scale AI-enabled consulting

This Role May Not Be for You If

• You prefer narrow, clearly defined roles
• You want to focus only on delivery or only on people
• You are uncomfortable with ambiguity and fast iteration
• You are not interested in AI as part of how work gets done

Role Shape

Typical—:

• 50–60% delivery leadership
• 20–30% people leadership
• 10–20% domain growth and product thinking

Employee Benefits

• 25 days holiday (pro-rated for part time employees)
• Life insurance x 4 of salary
• Employee Assistance Scheme
• Up to 10% discretionary annual bonus (based on individual/company performance)
