Scrum Master
Hybrid – Swindon or London
Competitive Salary + Bonus
Reporting to – Senior Scrum Master
The Scrum Master I role is the start of an Agile career.
The Scrum Master role at Edenred PayTech closely follows the definition in the Scrum Guide. Additionally we ask our Scrum Masters to gain and practice skills from wider Agile disciplines such as Kanban, Disciplined Agile, and Better Value Sooner Safer Happier, as we realise that one-Scrum-size does not fit all team contexts.
The Scrum Master does not govern nor manage the Product Backlog for the team. This is done jointly by the Product Manager/Product Owner, and the team (via pulling work into the Sprint Backlog each sprint). The Scrum Master facilitates, and encourages such backlog grooming and refinement.
Importantly a key aspect of the Scrum Master’s role is to champion early detection and removal / mitigation of cross-team dependencies. Such can create bottlenecks, ie: constraints that left unresolved will slow throughput of value to zero.
The Scrum Master I role also has specific responsibility to undertake professional development, ie: self-learning about Agile and Scrum.
Lastly, the Scrum Master acts as enabler, and encourager, an enthusiast for Agile and agility across team and organisation to help deliver Better Value Sooner Safer Happier as part of Gift Wrapping Our Services
