This role is focused on delivery alignment, scoping accuracy, process optimisation, and delivery tools, ensuring customers' projects are delivered based on correct requirements and that projects move predictably from SOW to go-live.
While this is not a project management role, the Delivery Quality Manager will occasionally engage directly with customers during escalations or to help realign timelines and expectations.

Key Responsibilities
Program Oversight and Delivery System Management
Oversee the delivery ecosystem for Attrax implementations, managing intake and prioritisation to ensure every project moves smoothly from scoping through go-live.
Ensure that all Implementation and Managed Services delivery teams' scope of work is being delivered to SmartRecruiters and customer quality standards.
Continuously evaluate and improve delivery workflows, documentation, and templates to increase efficiency and predictability.
Identify recurring delivery challenges and work cross-functionally to drive systemic improvements.
Sales and Scoping Support
Collaborate with the Services Sales and Solution Consulting teams to ensure opportunities are scoped realistically and aligned to current delivery capabilities.
Support the creation and review of Statements of Work (SOWs) and implementation timelines to reduce delivery risk.
Act as the bridge between pre-sales and delivery, helping to establish appropriate expectations and documenting non-standard requirements that require special handling.
Provide early input on deals to flag risks around complexity, integrations, or design constraints.
Ensure that customer designs and career site goals are achievable, flagging risks and adjustments where needed.
Participate in forecast and pipeline reviews to inform capacity planning.
Cross-Functional Coordination
Act as the central liaison between Attrax Engineering and Attrax Delivery Leadership.
Lead weekly syncs to align on-site build quality and progress.
Support Attrax enablement by embedding best practices and sharing learnings across the network.
Ensure delivery teams and engineering teams adhere to quality standards and that project readiness criteria are met before key handoffs (for example, UAT).
Technical Delivery Alignment
Understand and manage dependencies across UX and design, front-end workflows (HTML, CSS, CMS configuration), and back-end integration workflows (API data flows).
Collaborate with engineering leads to track and resolve defects logged in BugHerd and Jira, ensuring they align with testing and launch timelines.
Document and codify recurring technical or process issues to feed into continuous improvement efforts.
Quality and Change Control
Monitor adherence to scope and SOW definitions, partnering with DSMs and project leads to address scope creep early.
Be the final internal sign-off before site launches to ensure the scope defined is delivered without discrepancies.
Support consistent quality assurance practices, ensuring deliverables meet technical and design standards.
