Duties and Responsibilities: • Collaborate with project sponsors and stakeholders to define scope, goals, success criteria, key deliverables, and required resources. • Support teams in structuring and managing work—whether through project plans, visual work management tools, or iterative delivery frameworks. • Facilitate key Agile events (e.g., sprint planning, reviews, retrospectives, and daily stand-ups) and/or project meetings as appropriate. • Coach teams on Agile best practices and help optimize workflows using Scrum, Kanban, or scaled agile frameworks. • Identify and manage risks, dependencies, and blockers across projects or workstreams. • Maintain alignment and transparency through tailored reporting and clear, proactive communication with stakeholders. • Engage with external vendors or partners and coordinate across cross-functional teams to ensure seamless delivery. • Foster a continuous improvement mindset by helping teams reflect, learn, and adapt regularly. • Champion a focus on value-driven delivery and help stakeholders prioritize efforts that contribute most to business outcomes. • Identify opportunities to streamline or redesign workflows by applying technology and automation in a pragmatic, results-oriented way. • Adjust approach and cadence as needed to align with team maturity, business urgency, or sponsor expectations. Required Skills: • Proven track record of leading or supporting delivery efforts in cross-functional or matrixed environments. • Familiarity with a range of delivery methods, including Waterfall, Scrum, Kanban, and hybrid models. • Experience facilitating Agile events and applying Agile principles within or across teams. • Strong interpersonal and consultative skills, with the ability to influence without authority. Previous consultant experience is a plus. • Comfortable navigating ambiguity and shifting priorities while keeping teams focused on value delivery. • Effective communicator with the ability to synthesize and share information with technical and non-technical audiences. • Proficiency with visual work and project management tools such as the Atlassian suite (Jira, Jira Plans, Jira Align), Smartsheet, or similar platforms. • Ability to translate complex data into clear, actionable insights through data storytelling. • Experience using data visualization and reporting tools (e.g., Power BI, Tableau). Education and Qualifications: • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience; advanced degrees are a plus. • Certifications such as PMP, PSM, CSM, and SAFe are valued. • 5+ years of experience supporting or managing technology, business process, or cross-functional project work, with demonstrated project management and agility experience.
