  • Work closely with Solution Architects to prioritise work, whilst managing risk and dependencies, and communicating impacts to internal customers and stakeholders
  • Monitor Squad performance and identifies opportunities for improvement, ensure the squad is compliant with appropriate governance and practices
  • Perform Squad level reporting and manage RAID
  • Communicate and embody the Momentum mindset

 

What you’ll bring:

  • Minimum of 5 years’ Scrum Master experience within enterprise organisation(s) OR Project Manager with Scrum Master Certification
  • Min 1 year exposure/experience to infrastructure and/or Platform based technology
  • Strong Jira experience (2+ years) including designing and managing Jira boards to develop ways of working

  • Exceptional leadership and stakeholder management capability
  • Ability to rapidly develop trust and credibility with senior stakeholders; developing excellent working relationships and rapport with project stakeholders, including Delivery leaders, business subject matter experts, technology teams and others.

 

 

What we can offer you:

  • Discounts and offers on a range of retail favourite stores as well as insurance products.
  • A range of flexible working and leave options, including 20 weeks paid parental leave, 4 weeks paid secondary carer parental leave and unlimited paid emergency response leave.
