About QV Systems

QV Systems is a market-leading fintech providing SaaS-based lending, leasing and financing products for asset and automotive finance businesses. Through our Accelerate platform, we serve a growing base of broker  and funder clients across the UK, helping them streamline their operations and grow their businesses.

We believe in change for good, because being future-ready means making lives better. This runs through every aspect of our business and culture, as we strive to give finance businesses the tools and technology they need to thrive.

As a close-knit team, we’re at an exciting stage of growth where everyone’s contribution matters. This isn’t a role where you’ll be siloed into narrow responsibilities – you’ll have the opportunity to get involved across the business, shape how we work, and make a real impact on both our customers and our company.

Job Purpose

A motivated mid-level Technical Delivery Manager with a solid technical grounding, capable of owning project delivery end-to-end while coordinating resources and communicating confidently across both technical and business teams. This is a hands-on role suited to someone who can bring the right people together, keep delivery moving, and ensure technical and business teams are aligned throughout.

Main Responsibilities

Project Delivery:

  • Own the full delivery lifecycle from initiation through to closure across multiple concurrent projects
  • Maintain accurate project plans, risk logs, and status reporting for internal and client-facing stakeholders
  • Run sprint ceremonies or project checkpoints depending on delivery methodology in use
  • Proactively manage scope, timeline, and budget — escalating issues early

Technical Facilitation:

  • Bring together developers, analysts, architects, and stakeholders to drive decisions and unblock progress
  • Facilitate requirements gathering and scoping sessions, ensuring the right voices are in the room and outcomes are clearly captured
  • Create the conditions for technical teams to do their best work — removing blockers, resolving ambiguity, and maintaining momentum
  • Act as a bridge between technical and non-technical stakeholders, translating effectively in both directions without being the technical authority

Resource Coordination:

  • Maintain visibility of team capacity across active delivery projects
  • Coordinate task allocation and flag conflicts or overloads to senior management
  • Support onboarding of contractors or new team members into live projects

Contribute to growth strategy by:

  • Constantly challenging the Status Quo to do things better
  • Encouraging and documenting process improvements
  • Championing our products to provide excellent after-care to all customers
  • Contribute to building and improving the QA standards at QV
  • Enhance knowledge of QA processes through independent and supported learning at QV

Information Security

  • Understanding and following the guidelines in the Information Security Policy and Company Handbook

Jobholder Requirements

Essential Qualities & Attributes

  • 3–5 years of delivery or project management experience in a technology-led environment
  • Demonstrable technical literacy — comfortable reading specs, user stories, and system documentation
  • Experience facilitating workshops, scoping sessions, and cross-functional meetings
  • Experience with both agile and structured (waterfall/hybrid) delivery approaches
  • Proven ability to manage stakeholders at multiple levels
  • Strong organisational skills with attention to detail under pressure
  • Self-starter who takes ownership without waiting to be directed

Technical Skills – Desirable

  • Background in a technical discipline (development, QA, business analysis, or systems)
  • Familiarity with tools such as Jira, Confluence, Azure DevOps, or MS Project
  • PRINCE2 Foundation/Practitioner or equivalent agile certification
  • Exposure to vendor or third-party resource management

Key Competencies

  • Clear communicator who can adapt their style for technical and non-technical audiences
  • Natural facilitator who draws out the best in a room rather than dominating it
  • Collaborative team player who builds trust quickly across disciplines
  • Pragmatic problem-solver — finds a way through rather than around
  • Calm under pressure and adaptable to changing priorities
  • Proactive in identifying risks and escalating issues before they become problems
  • Committed to delivering quality outcomes for the business and its customers

What You’ll Gain

This role offers excellent development opportunities:

  • Broad exposure to all aspects of running a SaaS business – not just your function
  • Real influence – in a growing company, your voice and ideas genuinely shape how we work
  • Hands-on SaaS experience in a fast-growing fintech with diverse customers
  • Mentorship from experienced leadership team
  • Industry expertise in automotive and asset finance technology
  • Visibility – direct access to senior leadership and involvement in strategic discussions
  • Professional development through £1,000 annual training budget

What We Offer

  • Pension with NEST
  • 25 days holiday + bank holidays
  • Hybrid working environment (Bedford office and remote flexibility)
  • Technology package: MacBook and AirPods Pro, plus any equipment needed for effective home working
  • £1,000 annual training budget for courses, certifications, and professional development
  • Quarterly company socials and team events
  • Volunteering opportunities for our chosen charity
  • Inclusive, collaborative culture where everyone’s contribution is valued and visible

Who Thrives at QV Systems

You’ll love working here if you:

  • Want to make a real impact and see the direct results of your work
  • Enjoy variety and the opportunity to get involved across the business
  • Prefer collaboration and open communication over hierarchy and silos
  • Are energised by growth and building something rather than maintaining the status quo
  • Value being part of a close-knit team where everyone knows and supports each other

This might not be the right fit if you:

  • Prefer highly structured roles with rigid boundaries
  • Want to focus narrowly on one specific area without broader involvement
  • Need constant direction and aren’t comfortable with autonomy
  • Prefer corporate environments with extensive resources and support structures
