Delivery Leader - LAC
Location: Chile, Dominican Republic or Peru
Delivery Associates work with leaders in the public sector and impact organizations to solve problems, build consensus and implement policies and programs that impact millions of people. We use a clear methodology to solve problems and help our partners deliver results. We’re successful in part because we master our approach and in part because we are empathetic, resourceful, level-headed, and dedicated to our clients and the people they serve
As a Delivery Leader, you’ll work hand-in-hand with our partners (in government, in philanthropy, and at multilateral and nonprofit organizations). You’ll bring a strong combination of strategic leadership, client-facing delivery, and technical data fluency, including familiarity with emerging technologies such as AI tools, data visualization platforms, and digital solutions that support effective decision-making and performance management.
Delivery Associates is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion. We value the cultural and ethnic diversity of our team, and recognize the importance of having professionals with diverse trajectories.
Skill Sets.
We work closely in diverse, global teams, leaning on each other’s strengths. We don’t expect any one person to do all these things perfectly. Our Delivery Leaders should be able to:
● Ability to build capacity on data use for decision making: Support government partners to improve their data capacities and practices effectively.
● Engage with technology and AI: Demonstrate familiarity with or curiosity about emerging technologies, including the responsible use of AI tools, digital platforms, and data-driven solutions to improve public sector delivery and innovation.
● Build and lead relationships: Earn trust and influence among diverse stakeholders, especially in the public sector, philanthropy, or nonprofit world.
● Facilitate and coach: Run effective meetings and workshops that drive towards problem solving and consensus.
● Model and analyze data: Turn raw data into actionable insights and recommendations, whether through Excel or other platforms.
● Write and present clearly: Turn complex problems or insights into clear documents and well-structured slides; speak clearly and concisely in remote and in-person settings.
● Prioritize and manage workstreams: Bring clear structure and planning to day-to-day work and communication.
● Solve problems: Break down problems and identify root causes before developing hypotheses and solutions.
● Stay focused: Navigate complexity, especially in policy and program implementation, consistently steering large coalitions back to a single-minded focus on priority outcomes.
Mindsets.
We work well with people who are:
● Adaptable: Public sector work is dynamic. Our people are, too.
● Analytical: We identify, dissect, and solve complex problems, following the data and evidence.
● Accountable: We are a remote team. We work collaboratively but self-sufficiently; oversight is often minimal, while proactivity is essential.
● Driven: Our work is important, so it’s important we do it well.
● Collaborative: We are flexible, thoughtful and team players.
● Curious: We never stop learning from our clients, colleagues, and partners.
● Inclusive: We embrace all voices and backgrounds; it enriches our work.
