About the Opportunity

We are seeking an experienced Delivery Manager/Scrum Master to join our team at Yolk Recruitment Ltd. This role is a key part of our digital transformation journey, and we're looking for someone with a strong track record in leading cross-functional teams.

As a Delivery Manager/Scrum Master, you will oversee agile delivery across cross-functional teams, applying methodologies such as Scrum and Kanban to achieve project objectives. You will also be responsible for communicating effectively with stakeholders, providing progress and resource reporting, and empowering technical teams by promoting skill development and supporting a culture of continuous learning.

This role requires a proven experience in leading teams that deliver modular, componentized solutions within a broader delivery program. You should have a background in working with automated delivery methodologies, including continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines, automated testing, and operations. Strong communication skills and the ability to engage technical and non-technical stakeholders effectively are essential.

The ideal candidate will have extensive experience in Agile methodologies, team leadership, and delivery of componentized solutions as part of a larger program. You should also be familiar with tools such as Azure DevOps, Project Online, and other Microsoft delivery tools to manage project schedules, resources, and reporting.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead Agile Delivery Teams: Oversee and facilitate agile delivery across cross-functional teams, applying methodologies such as Scrum and Kanban to achieve project objectives.
  • Stakeholder Communication: Communicate effectively across all levels of the organization, adapting to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, and navigate political boundaries to ensure alignment.
  • Progress and Resource Reporting: Provide accurate and timely updates on project progress, resourcing, and any potential impediments, enabling informed decision-making across the organization.
  • Team Empowerment: Empower technical teams by promoting skill development and supporting a culture of continuous learning, ensuring the delivery of flexible, innovative technologies.
  • Cross-functional Influence: Act as a key influencer within the Digital, Data, and Technology departments, as well as across other organizational areas, to promote agile delivery practices.

About You:

  • Proven experience as a Delivery Manager or Scrum Master in an agile environment, with a solid understanding of Agile methodologies, including Scrum and Kanban, and knowledge of DevOps practices.
  • Experience in leading teams that deliver modular, componentized solutions within a broader delivery program.
  • Background in working with automated delivery methodologies, including continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines, automated testing, and operations.
  • Strong communication skills with an ability to engage technical and non-technical stakeholders effectively.
  • Demonstrated ability to influence and collaborate across organizational boundaries to support project delivery.

What We Offer:

We offer a competitive salary of up to £52,592 per annum, depending on experience. As a valued member of our team, you will also receive access to training and development opportunities, a generous pension scheme, and a range of employee benefits.

Yolk Recruitment Ltd is an equal opportunities employer and welcomes applications from all qualified candidates. We are committed to diversity and inclusion and aim to create a workplace that reflects the diversity of our clients and the communities we serve.
