Delivery Manager - Remote

Join us as a Director of Delivery in our growing Product – Services team! At Alliants, we’re on a mission to transform every customer engagement into something exceptional. We believe in working smart together to push the boundaries of company culture and create future-proof customer experiences.

Our Services organisation plays a critical role in executing complex, client-facing initiatives while supporting the evolution of our platforms and delivery models.

As Director of Delivery within our Product – Services team, you will own the end-to-end operational performance of Alliants’ deployment and training function from contract signature through to successful customer go-live. Your core mission is to build a global deployment engine capable of delivering the Alliants Experience Platform (AXP) at scale, with precision and repeatability. You will line-manage a global team, set the automation agenda, act as the senior escalation point for complex customer and partner issues, and establish the governance that ensures pre-sales commitments are always deliverable.

Deployment Automation Execution

You will own and execute the two-stream deployment automation agenda, focusing on technical data flows and workflow automation triggers. You will establish deployment visibility tooling that surfaces pipeline status, active blockers, and root causes at any moment, eliminating the need for manual chasing.

Training Commercialization

You will transform our training offering from an operational necessity into a commercial asset. You will improve online content, align updates to product release cycles, and build a contractor network for external commercial delivery.

By building trusted relationships with Sales VPs, you will ensure everything sold is actually deliverable before contracts are signed, bringing the credibility to say “no” and have it respected.
