About you.

You realise that you on an ‘Agile journey’ and have a growth mindset. You have supported projects working alongside an Agile PM, Product Owner, Iteration or Scrum Masters, as part of an Agile delivery framework. You have stepped up more than once to act in a leadership role, leading the ceremonies, providing sponsor briefings and wider guidance on how agile delivery works.

You have now decided that you are ‘all in’ and can’t see yourself delivering business outcomes in any other way. You describe yourself as having an Agile mindset and this allows you to make a real difference and deliver value to an organisation. In fact, you have started to read more and more about what Agile might be and with some hands-on experience in Agile techniques and methodologies (Scrum, XP, Lean, Kanban, LeSS, SAFe) plus some certifications under your belt, it is time to find an organisation that where you can learn and grow.

Lastly, you are confident in your abilities, and can work autonomously on client sites, using Agile methodologies to lead and drive teams towards innovative solutions that satisfy business needs and deliver value.
