Senior Scrum Master / Agile Delivery Lead

Responsibilities:

• Own the execution rhythm from planning through delivery to release, ensuring predictability and focus on business outcomes

• Drive delivery execution by maintaining momentum, resolving blockers, and ensuring commitments are met

• Identify, track, and actively manage cross-team and cross-ART dependencies, aligning scope and timelines with key stakeholders

• Build and maintain a clear impediment and risk log, removing blockers by navigating the organization and escalating early when needed

• Lead continuous improvement by maintaining an actionable backlog and driving tangible improvements in flow, collaboration, and quality

• Coach teams to become more effective, self-organising, and outcome-driven while strengthening stakeholder communication

• Partner closely with Product Owners to improve backlog readiness, refinement quality, and clarity of scope and acceptance criteria

• Facilitate Agile ceremonies where needed, with a strong focus on delivery effectiveness rather than process adherence

• Excellent facilitation and coaching skills, including conflict resolution, team dynamics, and decision facilitation

• Experience working with distributed and multi-location teams, with strong focus on clarity, transparency, and alignment

• Strong practical knowledge of Agile ways of working and building high-performing teams (self-organization, empowerment, sustainable pace)

• Solid experience with tools such as Jira and Confluence, with a strong delivery-focused mindset

• Fluency in English (both written and spoken)

Nice to have:

• Experience working in scaled Agile environments (e.g. SAFe), including PI planning and collaboration with RTEs and PMs

• Strong focus on actionable metrics (flow, predictability, quality signals) and using them to improve delivery outcomes

• Relevant certifications such as PSM II, A-CSM, SAFe ASM or SPC

• Ability to influence senior stakeholders and operate effectively in a "lead without authority" model

Offer:
