What does a successful Implementations Delivery Lead do at Fiserv?

 

As a successful, Implementations Delivery Lead, you will serve as a senior delivery leader for implementation teams, helping to bring structure, visibility and accountability across a high volume of small to medium projects.

• Coach and train teams on Agile, Scrum, Kanban and waterfall practices, and train team members in organization, time management, progress communication and effective use of Jira and related tools.
• Establish, monitor and analyze delivery metrics—including throughput, cycle time, milestone attainment, capacity utilization, backlog health, project aging and delivery predictability—to support data-driven decisions.
• Improve delivery processes, visibility and consistency across the organization, and provide the management with delivery-related input on Implementation Analyst skill gaps, execution patterns and coaching opportunities.

 

What you will need to have:

• 6+ years of experience in project delivery, implementation, Agile delivery, program coordination or related roles
• Strong knowledge of Agile, Scrum, Kanban and waterfall methodologies
• Experience managing multiple concurrent projects and competing priorities
• Experience coaching, mentoring or training team members
