# Kevinjohn Gallagher > Kevinjohn Gallagher is a Programme Director (Digital Delivery). He's the person you phone when a digital programme is firefighting, stalled, or needs a steady hand at the wheel. He rescues stalled programmes, builds delivery capability, and leads digital transformation — from embedded Scrum Master engagements to board-level change leadership. Title varies by client (Senior Project Manager, Agile Delivery Lead, Agile Coach, Programme Manager, Scrum Master, Advisor) but the work is the same: showing up when the stakes are high. YunoJuno's Programme Manager of the Year. Kevinjohn has nearly 30 years of hands-on experience in digital delivery, with management and delivery leadership roles since 1998, across public sector, financial services, creative agencies, and big tech. Career engagements include AKQA, R/GA, McKinsey, Accenture, Microsoft and Google. He works at the intersection of Agile practice, organisational change, and technical delivery — coaching teams to self-sustain, not just survive a transformation. His background includes programme recovery, large-scale Agile adoption (Scrum, Kanban, Lean, SAFe), programme finance, digital accessibility (WCAG), and open source advocacy. He is equally comfortable as an embedded practitioner or a strategic advisor. ## Hero positioning World class digital delivery, without the drama.
