Our end‑to‑end platform gives companies a best‑in‑class Stories experience in days with native iOS, Android, and Web SDKs, publishing tools, analytics, and ad support.

Responsibilities
As a Delivery Manager at Storyteller, you will be responsible for the seamless delivery of projects from post-sale through to launch and the initial period of live operation – plus the active improvement of our delivery processes to improve client satisfaction.
What you can expect:
Grabbing hold of projects and making them your own – being the person who knows and cares the most about the clients you are delivering for
Initiating delivery projects, aligning plans with client expectations and business objectives
Running onboarding and discovery calls, helping to define requirements and leading clients through the process of integrating our product
Controlling schedules, tracking milestones, and adjusting timelines as necessary using tools such as Jira and Airtable
Maintaining transparent client communication, managing stakeholder expectations, and negotiating scope changes effectively
Reviewing client integrations to ensure they are to spec, and feeding back issues clearly to client integrators and internal engineering teams
Running CMS training with clients to ensure they can use the platform effectively
Managing post-launch support and ensuring a smooth handover to Customer Success
Working cross-functionally – most projects blend tech, product, and content
Proactively identifying problems, generating options, and driving decisions to keep delivery moving
Using AI and internal tools to accelerate delivery (e.g., summarising calls, drafting specs and tickets, analysing integration behaviour, and improving documentation and playbooks)
Contributing to continuous improvement in how we deliver Storyteller – processes, templates, documentation and standards
Qualifications
What's important to us:
Experience delivering or managing web- or app-based projects (ideally in B2B SaaS, sports, media, or a fast-moving agency/startup environment)
Excellent oral and written communication skills, including the ability to communicate with technical and non-technical stakeholders
High ownership mindset – you grab hold of things, figure them out, and drive them to completion
Strong problem-solving skills and comfort making decisions with imperfect information
A real interest in technology and AI, with experience using AI tools and effective prompting to speed up workflows and improve outcomes
Detail-oriented, with a high bar for quality and clear documentation
Comfort juggling multiple projects and priorities at speed
Familiarity with project management methodologies and tools (Jira, Airtable, Linear, Asana, Monday, etc.)
Reliable internet for remote work
What’s nice to have:
Experience with SDK, API, or mobile app integrations
Experience running requirement/specification processes with external stakeholders
Experience working with US and UK clients across time zones
