IT Delivery Manager – Better together

(For English version, see below)

Er du organisator ind til benet? Høster du energi, når kollegaerne kender retningen? Og du har styr på detaljerne, og alle kender prioriteterne? Har du ambitioner om at arbejde som IT Delivery Manager? Så håber vi, du vil læse videre.

Du vil blive en del af Research & Solution afdelingen, der har en portefølje af planlagte og igangværende projekter, som alle har det mål at udvide vores SaaS eksamensplatform, WISEflow, med ny funktionalitet. Som Junior IT Delivery Manager vil du være ansvarlig for at styre leverancerne igennem hele delivery cycle fra specifikation til release til det produktive miljø.  

Du vil samarbejde tæt både med kollegerne i Research & Solution, som står for design af nye funktionaliteter, udviklingsafdelingen, som står for at udvikle de nye funktionaliteter og med Training & Consultancy afdelingen, der er ansvarlig for implementeringen af WISEflow hos vores kunder. Vi anvender Agile Release Trains som rammen for vores arbejde.

Dit ansvarsområde er bredt og handler bl.a. om

• Planlægning, eksekvering og prioritering af en portefølje af udviklingsprojekter
• Udarbejdelse og præsentation af estimater samt sikring af at vi leverer det aftalte til aftalte tid
• Videreudvikling af projektmetoden samt vores delivery processer
• Samarbejde på tværs af afdelinger og fagligheder (solutions architects, udviklere og konsulenter)
• Afrapportering til og tæt samarbejde med Head of Department, som du referer til

Hvad kigger vi efter?

Der kan være mange veje ind i rollen som Delivery Manager, så vi er mest af alt nysgerrige efter at høre om, hvordan du har prøvet kræfter med IT-udviklingsprojekter og din erfaring med stakeholder management. Kender du til den agile metode og Software Delivery Life Cycle, hører vi gerne om det også.

Vi lægger vægt på, at du er god til mennesker, til at håndtere forskellige interessenter og kan sætte dig ind i deres udfordringer. Og at du kan skære igennem, når der er brug for det. Vi er en international virksomhed, så arbejdssproget er engelsk.

Kender du vores verden, dvs. uddannelsessektoren og eksamensområdet, er det naturligvis fantastisk. Erfaring med software projekter til den offentlige sektor generelt eller større, international organisation kan også være et match.

Hvad tilbyder UNIwise?

UNIwise er en uformel arbejdsplads med god Work-Life-Balance, hvor du kan ”falde til” og have det godt, mens du gør det, du kan lide. Vi arbejder i mindre teams, så der er brug for både stor selvstændighed og tætte sparringsrelationer. Hvis du tænder på et fagligt, stærkt samarbejdsmiljø, får du det her.

Vi spiser frokost sammen og lægger vægt på et sjovt socialt miljø med bl.a. brætspil, biograf-klub, vinsmagninger og årlige fester m.v.

Læring er afgørende, som vi skrev ovenfor. Derfor tilbyder vi kompetenceudvikling i form af en Upskilling Fund. Alle medarbejdere får én gang årligt stillet et individuel beløb til rådighed til kurser mv. Det glæder vi os til at fortælle dig mere om.

UNIwise samarbejder i dag med over 120 uddannelsesinstitutioner i Norden, Storbritannien, Tyskland, Frankrig, Belgien, Østrig, Portugal m.v. Vi er p.t. 70 kollegaer fordelt mellem hovedsædet i Aarhus og kontorer i England, Norge og Tyskland. Læs mere på www.uniwise.dk.
