Overview
We are seeking a senior Engineering Lead / Technical Delivery Lead to drive delivery across a strategic portfolio of enterprise risk and compliance platforms. The role spans a mature RegTech (Obligation to Control) implementation entering build, alongside an earlier‑stage Third Party Risk Management (TPRM) initiative focused on prototyping and roadmap definition.
This is a non‑hands‑on leadership role, requiring strong delivery discipline, the ability to translate complex regulatory and business requirements into executable scope, and confidence operating as the primary UK‑based engineering contact in a regulated, enterprise environment.

Rate - up to £750/day Inside IR35 via Umbrella

Duration – Initially until year-end (multi-year project)

Key Responsibilities
  • Act as the single engineering lead across risk and compliance delivery initiatives
  • Translate high‑level regulatory and business requirements into clear technical scope and delivery plans
  • Lead end‑to‑end delivery governance covering design, build, implementation, and readiness
  • Define feasibility, scope boundaries, and delivery approach for TPRM prototype / POC
  • Orchestrate architects, BAs, engineers, risk, compliance, and vendor teams
  • Engage senior UK‑based stakeholders and drive progress with minimal direction

Key Skills & Experience
Essential
  • Experience as an Engineering Lead, Technical Delivery Lead, or Senior Technical Project Manager
  • Strong understanding of the full software development lifecycle
  • Proven ability to assess feasibility, scope, and delivery approach
  • Experience delivering workflow, case management, or integration‑led solutions
