Engineering & Delivery Manager - Business Unit (all genders)

Why Valtech? We’re the experience innovation company - a trusted partner to the world’s most recognized brands. To our people we offer growth opportunities, a values-driven culture, international careers and the chance to shape the future of experience.

Context

Valtech is a strategic partner for a top luxury client operating model, operating as a Business Unit (BU) across multiple divisions. Under the new factory-based model, Valtech is accountable for standardized, industrialized delivery across coherent application territories, shifting from a supplier relationship to a strategic delivery partner responsible for transformation, performance, and scale.

This role leads both: the engineering vision and the multi-division delivery that turn the factory model into measurable outcomes.
