Are you an experienced Scrum Master / Agile Delivery Manager with the skills to help shape our growing Scrum teams to deliver against an ambitious and exciting roadmap here at the British Heart Foundation (BHF)?
If so, we have a great job opportunity for a Digital Scrum Master to join us and coach teams through competing priorities.
About the role
As our Scrum Master you'll work in collaboration with Product Managers to plan, deliver and maintain digital products and services, including online fundraising products, retail apps and cross–platform integrations.
You ll help our scrum teams to deliver against an ambitious and exciting roadmap, with scope to make positive changes to our processes and ways of working.
Please note this role will be know as a Digital Scrum Master internally.
Working arrangements
This is a dual location role, with your working time split between your home and approximately once a week in our London Office, dependent on projects and meetings.
We understand that you might need a little help balancing your work and home life. Many of our people work flexibly in different ways, from the hours or days they work, to their office or home location or a blend between the two. Please feel free to talk to us at interview about the flexibility you may need; we re happy to explore what s possible for you and the role in helping to deliver our cause.
About you
With a formal certified Scrum Master accreditation or extensive relevant experience you ll have working knowledge of Jira and Confluence for short– and long–term workflow management. You ll also have previous experience of User Story writing and an understanding of agile approaches to story refinement from requirements
Your strengths will include:
• Extensive experience delivering full product lifecycle in an agile environment, as well as knowledge of traditional project management methods
• Strong experience leading product–based approach to digital delivery and understanding its effect on traditional project management
• Experience of managing complex integration backlogs including managing relationships with third party suppliers
• Experience of managing long term, iterative improvement programmes of work with multiple internal and external stakeholders
• Strong experience of managing multiple scrum teams and sharing learnings from multiple teams across wider organisation
With strong analytical thinking, able to simplify complex problems into component parts and Sprint stages for delivery, you ll have effective influencing and negotiating skills, able to articulate strong and sound arguments and demonstrate credibility. You'll be able to draw on a range of techniques to influence positive behavioural change and consensus.
You ll be able to generate an atmosphere of trust, autonomy and collaborative working to shared objectives and will be adept at asking the right questions, actioning decisions and breaking down blockers for scrum teams, resolving issues and escalating where required.
