Opportunity to Develop & Implement Delivery Processes | Progression & Shares Opportunity | 2pdw in office | Flexible Culture | Agile Scrum

Ada Meher is partnered on a search with a leading FinTech business with offices on Deansgate as they recruit an experienced Agile Delivery Manager to join them as they look to redefine and improve their delivery processes as part of a wider Digital Transformation. This would be the first role of this kind in the business and would offer the right candidate the opportunity to work directly with the Senior Leadership Team to implement best practice in Agile/Scrum Delivery and grow out that department in their own image as the business scales.

The tech team is made up of 3 squads working across 2 main products, so they are looking for a candidate who enjoys working across multiple projects at once and is comfortable with key Agile/Scrum concepts such as Fibonacci/Story Point base estimations, running Scrum ceremonies & taking accountability for delivery of projects. In return, there is both a real ownership and autonomy over these processes and a natural progression path for this role as the Delivery function grows in tandem with the technical teams.

As a hybrid employer, this business is set up to support remote and flexible working allowing their employees to get the most out of home life whilst also contributing to the ongoing success of the team. They ask for an office presence 2dpw, to collaborate with the team in person.

To Be Considered:
  • Strong experience with Agile / Scrum Delivery in a Software Development team
  • Experience working on delivery across multiple squads & products simultaneously
  • Experience working with established estimation techniques (eg Fibonacci / Story Point based estimation)
  • Comfortable covering project planning, acting as Scrum Master & assisting Lead Developers in writing tickets
  • Whilst not a necessity, if a candidate has prior experience implementing Agile/Scrum into a business that would be a bonus

The client are at the very start of an exciting new chapter in their development, following the acquisition of the business by an equity group. They are looking to overhaul the current platforms & processes to the latest standards before then progressing their products down a strategic roadmap into a full SaaS offering and growing out the teams.

As such, they are looking for individuals who seek a long-term opportunity to grow with the business as they achieve this, with progression pathways into Lead and Head of roles as well as Share Options available longer term for the right candidate.

We are expecting a strong response to this Agile Delivery Manager role, so please apply within or send a CV to matthew.coney@adameher.com today for consideration.
