Application Delivery Manager

• The client is seeking a Senior Application Delivery Coordinator capable of wearing two hats simultaneously: financial monitoring of maintenance and minor enhancement projects (estimates, budget variances, forecasts) and operational coordination of deliveries in a complex IT environment.
  
• The core of the role is cross-functional leadership: aligning IT teams, external vendors, and business stakeholders, while monitoring capacity, quality, and delivery risks.
  
• The recurring keywords (monitoring, coordination, alignment, escalation, capacity, variance) indicate a profile focused on execution and control, not design or development. Budgetary responsibility is described first and in detail, making it a selection criterion on par with delivery coordination.
  
• This role is neither a single-project manager, nor a Scrum Master or Agile Coach, nor an architect: it is a delivery coordinator with ongoing financial responsibility.
