Delivery Manager / Project Manager | AI & Software Projects | London | Contract | Outside IR35 - Remote unless onsite with clients

Conquer AI is hiring a Delivery Manager / Project Manager to support our Head of Delivery as we scale.

We’re growing quickly and our delivery workload is ramping up across multiple client and internal AI/software projects. Our Head of Delivery is currently managing projects both onsite with clients and internally with engineering teams, so we’re looking for someone sharp, organised, and highly dependable to help keep projects moving at pace.

This is a hands-on delivery role for someone who can operate in a fast-moving consultancy environment, manage multiple workstreams, keep engineers and architects accountable, and make sure projects are delivered properly, not just discussed endlessly in meeting fog.

You’ll be working across software and AI projects, supporting delivery from discovery through to build, deployment, and client handover.

What you’ll be doing

• Supporting the Head of Delivery across multiple client and internal projects
• Managing project plans, timelines, actions, risks, blockers, and dependencies
• Running stand-ups and keeping teams focused on delivery
• Holding engineers, architects, and stakeholders accountable to agreed actions
• Working closely with technical teams to understand progress, blockers, and priorities
• Keeping clients updated in a clear, professional, and confident way
• Helping coordinate onsite and internal project activity
• Managing deadlines and making sure commitments are followed through
• Switching quickly between different client projects and workstreams
• Bringing structure, urgency, and calm to a fast-paced environment

What we’re looking for

• Experience as a Delivery Manager, Project Manager, Technical Project Manager, or similar
• Experience delivering software projects
• Experience working in a consultancy, agency, professional services, or fast-moving client-facing environment
• Strong stakeholder management skills
• Ability to manage multiple projects at once
• Comfort working with engineers, architects, and technical teams
• Strong communication, organisation, and follow-through
• Ability to work autonomously without needing constant direction
• Confidence running stand-ups, chasing actions, and managing deadlines
• A practical, delivery-focused mindset

Nice to have

• Experience delivering AI, data, automation, or SaaS projects
• Experience working with agile delivery methods
• Experience in a startup, scale-up, consultancy, or transformation environment
• Comfort working with senior client stakeholders
• Understanding of software delivery, APIs, cloud, data, or AI workflows
• You’ll do well here if you are
• Highly organised
• Calm under pressure
• Good with people
• Comfortable spinning many plates
• Direct but professional
• Fast-moving
• Commercially aware
• Able to bring order without slowing everyone down
