Responsibilities- Be a trusted partner, challenger, and catalyst - helping organisations and the people within them to think and work differently
- Bring a rare combination of deep expertise and genuine human warmth: the ability to build lasting relationships, navigate complexity with a positive can do attitude, and inspire those around you through authentic passion for continuous improvement
- Lead by example, challenge the status quo constructively, and foster a culture of experimentation, innovation, and psychological safety.

- Coach squads, leaders, and business/technical stakeholders at all levels, adapting style and approach to context.
- Launch and sustain teams across short and long term engagements - supporting vision creation, forecasting, prioritisation, and self organisation.
- Facilitate the full range of team and programme/scaled agile events, ensuring they are purposeful, time boxed, and genuinely valuable.

- Support the resolution of interpersonal conflict through coaching on collaborative problem solving and decision making.
- Champion personal development and a continuous learning mindset across individuals and teams.
- Cultivate agile and growth mindsets - not just as process compliance, but as a genuine shift in how people think and act.
- Coach product managers and product owners to embed a genuine product culture and build customer driven, outcome oriented roadmaps.
- Facilitate technical and strategic discussions to achieve clarity, alignment, and actionable outcomes on complex problems.
- Apply visualisation techniques and methods to make work, flow, and decisions visible at every level.
- Leverage delivery tooling (e.g. Jira, PPM platforms) to support flow, predictability, and continuous improvement.
- Understand and map an organisation's business and technical processes across IT and non IT domains, including Value Streams and Business Capabilities.
- Guide outcome oriented transformations that support organisational maturity, robustness, and reinvention - including Operating Model and Organisational Design considerations.
- Scale lean agile practices beyond individual teams, driving enterprise wide agility with sustainable cultural change.
- Educate teams and leaders on methods beyond Scrum - including SAFe, Kanban, Flow, Built in Quality, Team Topologies, and emerging frameworks.
- Provide thought leadership on Business Agility trends, industry practices, and next generation approaches.
- Use data, metrics, and delivery signals to create transparency and drive evidence based decision making at team, programme, and portfolio levels.
- Support teams and leaders with data collection practices, metrics hygiene, and outcome focused reporting.
- Create and interpret dashboards and visualisations that enable continuous improvement and honest conversations.
- Apply AI assisted analysis and tooling to augment coaching, sense making, and delivery insight - staying at the forefront of how AI is reshaping the practice of agility.
- Demonstrate a genuine interest in AI and data analytics as strategic levers for transformation, not just operational tools.
- Proven experience in complex agile programme management, product management, or Release Train management.
- Knowledge of DevOps practices and Continuous Delivery Pipeline implementation.
- Familiarity with Design Thinking and Human Centred Design principles.
- A track record of navigating ambiguity and delivering value in imperfect, real world transformations.
- SPC Certification (SAFe Practice Consultant) and experience in large scale training design and facilitation.
- Demonstrated ability to contribute to a high performing practice team - sharing knowledge, supporting colleagues, and building on each other's strengths.
