It’s an opportunity to work with cutting‑edge technology, alongside talented professionals, on challenges that genuinely matter.

    • Act as a servant‑leader, supporting Agile teams in the day‑to‑day operation of Lean‑Agile practices
    • Facilitate team‑of‑teams events such as Program Increment Planning, and support roadmap development to achieve shared objectives
    • Identify, surface and help remove impediments to team progress and delivery
    • Lead the identification of training and development needs for teams and individuals
    • Improve team and individual performance through coaching, mentoring and facilitation
    • Provide Agile coaching, advisory support and assurance across multiple teams where required

    What You’ll Bring

    • Practical experience applying servant‑leadership within Agile delivery teams
    • Strong knowledge of Agile principles, practices and frameworks, particularly Scrum
    • Excellent facilitation, communication and organisational skills
    • An advanced Scrum Master certification such as PSM II or III, or SAFe Advanced Scrum Master (SASM)
    • Experience in Agile Coaching, or relevant qualifications such as ICP‑ATF, ICP‑ACC or ICE‑AC

    We know that not everyone will meet every requirement. If this role excites you and you feel you can make an impact, we’d love to hear from you.
