Overview: We are looking for an experienced SFIA Level 5 Scrum Master with a background in software development and testing. This role requires a delivery-focused Scrum Master who understands the end-to-end delivery life cycle and can apply agile pragmatically to ensure work is delivered successfully. Ideally, we are looking for somebody that has delivered across heavy development projects matching the HMRC Environment (Java, AWS, Kubernetes etc). This is not a purely facilitative role; the successful candidate will bring a technical lens to delivery, enabling them to identify risks early, challenge constructively, and adapt ways of working to keep delivery on track.
Key Responsibilities
- Act as Scrum Master across multiple engineering delivery teams, facilitating all Scrum ceremonies
- Drive delivery outcomes while applying agile principles pragmatically
- Identify and remove delivery impediments, risks, and dependencies
- Use technical experience to assess delivery health, quality, and readiness
- Work closely with Developers, Testers, Product Owners, and Delivery Leads
- Provide clear delivery updates to stakeholders and align with governance requirements
