This is an excellent opportunity to get involved early, influence the future solution and ways of working, and contribute to a strategically important transformation initiative.

What you´ll do

  • Act as Scrum Master for a new implementation project, facilitating the team’s agile delivery model and ensuring effective collaboration across an international project environment

  • Support the early A&D phase and project setup activities to help establish a strong delivery foundation from the start
  • Work closely with stakeholders across multiple functions and teams to ensure alignment and transparency
  • Help build and maintain the team’s agile operating model, including ways of working, progress visibility, and clear ownership of follow-up actions
  • Foster a collaborative, motivated, and focused team culture centered on continuous improvement and value delivery

What makes you a good fit

  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience, with 3–5 years of relevant professional experience in a Scrum Master and/or project coordination / PMO role
  • Proven track record of successfully facilitating delivery in complex, cross-functional environments, ideally with measurable improvements in delivery predictability, cycle time, or team throughput
  • Strong practical experience with Scrum events, sprint execution, backlog management, and agile team facilitation, combined with hands-on involvement in coordinating dependencies, risks, and follow-ups across multiple workstreams
  • Experience working in international, cross-functional project environments with diverse stakeholders, and the ability to drive alignment, transparency, and decision-making in ambiguous situations
  • Demonstrated ability to support early project phases (e.g., discovery, analysis & design, setup), including establishing ways of working, governance structures, and delivery foundations
  • Strong communication and facilitation skills, with confidence in leading workshops, resolving impediments, and engaging stakeholders across intercultural and organizational boundaries
  • Experience using delivery metrics (e.g., velocity, predictability, lead time, OKRs) to drive continuous improvement at team or program level
  • Agile certifications (e.g., PSM, CSM, SAFe Scrum Master) required or preferred; additional project management certifications (e.g., PRINCE2, PMP) are a plus
  • Proficient in Azure DevOps, Microsoft Office, and collaboration tools used in agile delivery environments (Miro, Conceptboard, etc.)
  • Familiarity with BPMN2.0 and Signavio is a plus
