In this role, you will function as a ‘servant‑leader’ for team members to remove impediments at the team‑level and in scaled agile frameworks to shield the teams from interferences.

- Provide regular, concise status updates to managers and stakeholders.
- Identify and drive process improvements to increase efficiency and project quality.
WHAT YOU BRING
- Proven ability to lead successful projects and work cross‑organisationally.
- Ability to manage through ambiguities while being innovative and collaborative.
- Ability to be an active listener and employ various levels of listening as required by the needs of those you coach.
- Ability to build trusted relationships with key stakeholders.
- Cultural awareness, intercultural competencies, and ability to influence without authority.
- Ability to think strategically, delivering services to meet stakeholders’ demands on a timely basis.
- Problem‑solving, presentation, communication, and interpersonal skills.
- Technology skills and the willingness to learn new topics quickly.
- Strong driver mentality: you proactively move topics forward and keep teams focused on outcomes.
- Excellent organisational and coordination skills.
- Structured and reliable working style.
- Willingness to work flexible hours to accommodate time differences when working with internationally‑based colleagues.
- Willingness to travel (less than 10 %).
- Fluent in written and verbal English required.
WORK EXPERIENCE
- Experience with agile ways of working (e.g. Scrum, Kanban) required.
- Confident user of JIRA and Microsoft 365 (Teams, Planner/Tasks, SharePoint, Excel, PowerPoint) required.
- Basic understanding of modern IT architectures (e.g. cloud, APIs) preferred.
- Experience managing compliance teams preferred.
