Job description
What if your most rewarding experiences couldn’t be captured by a resume?
At EY we believe that whoever you are, your uniqueness helps us stand apart.
We bring together extraordinary people, like you, to build a better working world.
What’s in it for you?
We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Agile Scrum Master at the Manager level. You will play a crucial role in guiding teams through the implementation of Scrum practices, ensuring effective project management, and fostering a culture of continuous improvement.
In line with client requirements you will already be living, or willing to relocate to Adelaide.
Some of your responsibilities will include:
- Facilitate and support all scrum events: Sprint Planning, Daily Stand-ups, Sprint Reviews, and Sprint Retrospectives.
- Act as a servant leader and coach for the Scrum Team, helping them to work together effectively and to continuously improve.
- Work with Product Owners to ensure the backlog is well-maintained, prioritized, and visible to all stakeholders.
- Remove impediments to the Scrum Team’s progress and protect them from external interruptions.
- Foster an environment of collaboration, transparency, and commitment to delivery.
- Ensure metrics and project progress reports are communicated to stakeholders.
- Guide the organization in its Scrum adoption and in the scaling of Scrum across teams and departments.
- Lead and mentor other Scrum Masters in the organization.
What we’re looking for:
Here’s our ‘wish list’ but don’t worry if you don’t tick all the boxes. We’re interested in your strengths, what you want to learn, and how far you want to go.
- 4+ years of experience in a Scrum Master role, with at least 2 years at a managerial level.
- ICAgile Certified Professional (ICP), Professional Scrum Master (PSM), SAFe, or similar certifications.
- Demonstrated experience in leading Agile transformation initiatives.
- Proven track record of successfully delivering complex projects using Agile methodologies.
- Proven ability to lead and motivate teams to improve their agility and deliver value.
- Proficiency in agile tools such as JIRA, Azure DevOps and other similar tools.
