Role Description The Scrum Master is a critical delivery enablement role responsible for ensuring the effective flow of work through the delivery team. The role exists to support predictable, high‑quality delivery by applying Agile and Scrum practices while actively enabling the team through strong coordination, clarity of work, and removal of impediments. The Scrum Master acts as the front door for new work entering the team, ensuring requests are triaged, understood at an appropriate level of detail, and ready for delivery. The role requires sufficient technical and delivery context to coordinate dependencies, support sizing and sequencing of work, and actively unblock the team. This role is embedded within the team and focuses on team‑level delivery rather than programme or train‑level orchestration. The team operates using an Agile methodology, drives continuous improvement and is highly collaborative with IT and business stakeholders. The ideal candidate will be highly collaborative, a self-starter, a champion for the team, and passionate about delivering quality solutions. Qualifications - Extensive experience as a Scrum Master and in Agile project delivery, including scaled Agile frameworks (e.g. SAFe). - Proven delivery of complex technology, cloud, and data‑driven solutions in enterprise environments. - Strong team‑level delivery management experience, including backlog readiness, prioritisation, dependency coordination, and use of Agile tools such as Jira. - Effective coordination across cross‑functional, global, and remote teams, with strong stakeholder management, communication, and diplomacy skills. - Solid technical understanding to work credibly with engineering teams across software, IT, and product lifecycles, without acting as a solution designer. - Demonstrated change management capability, continuous improvement mindset, and ability to deliver under pressure with strong organisational and time‑management skills. - Relevant qualifications in software engineering, engineering, or project management. Requirements - Work closely with Data & Analytics team members and business functions to ensure alignment and successful delivery of products and projects. - Enable consistent, predictable delivery through effective sprint execution, flow management, and Agile best practices. - Act as the front door for new work, ensuring a clear, controlled, and standardised intake process. - Maintain sufficient understanding of requests to support prioritisation, sizing, dependency coordination, and delivery planning. - Proactively identify, manage, and resolve impediments, risks, and dependencies impacting delivery. - Establish and facilitate Agile ceremonies and delivery forums, including sprint planning, stand‑ups, reviews, retrospectives, and post‑implementation playbacks. - Drive continuous improvement by implementing Agile and delivery best practices and measuring team performance through relevant KPIs. - Ensure delivery transparency and stakeholder confidence through accurate progress tracking, risk management, and regular reporting. - Manage change management activities and ensure required reporting, governance, and approval frameworks are followed. - Coach and guide the team in Agile practices and tools, and support the wider adoption and scaling of Agile ways of working across the organisation. Benefits - Be part of a global organization dedicated to building a better future. - An opportunity to grow your own way with support and freedom to tailor-make your career. - Feel empowered to be yourself and belong in a welcoming, inclusive workplace.
