About the role 

TwinStream is seeking a Software Project Manager who can operate confidently across both project and programme-level delivery. This role blends agile, flow-based delivery practices with the ability to coordinate multiple workstreams, align stakeholders, manage complex risks, and maintain visibility across broader initiatives. 

You’ll work closely with Technical Leads, engineers, and senior stakeholders to ensure that software delivery is predictable, well-governed (lightly), and aligned to programme objectives. This role is ideal for someone who can zoom out to see the bigger picture while still helping teams maintain a healthy delivery flow. 

  

Responsibilities 

 Programme-Level Coordination & Planning 

• Coordinate delivery across multiple related projects or workstreams to ensure alignment with programme goals. 

• Maintain a clear, high-level view of progress, risks, dependencies, and resource needs across the programme. 

• Support roadmap shaping and programme-level planning with Technical Leads and product/strategy stakeholders. 

• Facilitate alignment discussions across teams to clarify priorities, architectural considerations, and sequencing decisions. 

Agile Delivery Management 

• Lead delivery activities using Kanban and flow-based agile practices across one or more teams. 

• Maintain visibility of work-in-progress, blockers, throughput, and upcoming priorities. 

• Support teams in balancing feature delivery, technical debt, architectural improvements, and research/activity spikes. 

• Encourage continuous flow, reducing bottlenecks and ensuring smooth transitions between stages of delivery. 

Lightweight Governance & Reporting 

• Provide structured but concise reporting suitable for programme sponsors and senior leadership. 

• Track progress against objectives, milestones, and commitments across multiple workstreams. 

• Capture key decisions, risks, issues, and actions in a lightweight but traceable way. 

• Help define and mature TwinStream’s delivery governance model — ensuring it remains agile and value-driven. 

Risk, Issue & Dependency Management 

• Identify and manage programme-level risks, ensuring they are surfaced early and escalated appropriately. 

• Coordinate cross-team and cross-vendor dependencies with clarity and urgency. 

• Use a pragmatic, simple RAID process to maintain visibility and drive mitigation actions. 

• Support teams in resolving blockers that span across technical or organisational boundaries. 

Stakeholder & Cross-Functional Engagement 

• Act as the central coordination point for engineering, Technical Leads, internal stakeholders, and (when relevant) customers.
