Scrum Master Nottingham, England
Job description
Who are Experian?
We are the world’s leading global information services company. During life’s big moments – from buying a home or a car, to sending a child to college, to growing a business by connecting with new customers – we empower consumers and our clients to manage their data with confidence. We help individuals to take financial control and access financial services, businesses to make smarter decisions and thrive, lenders to lend more responsibly, and organisations to prevent identity fraud and crime.
We have 20,000 people operating across 44 countries and every day we’re investing in new technologies, talented people, and innovation to help all our clients maximise every opportunity. We are listed on the London Stock Exchange (EXPN) and are a constituent of the FTSE 100 Index.
Our approach to flexible working
We care about work that works, whether that’s about where you work or adjusting your hours to fit better with your life. Our flexible working practices, including our hybrid working model where you can split your working time between the office and your home, support our belief that this balance brings long-lasting benefits for our business as well as ensuring that our people can balance successful careers with their commitments and interests outside of work. So that you can love where you work, please discuss what works for you with your recruiter during the hiring process.
Accepting you, for you.
We want you to feel accepted for who you are and to feel safe, valued and to help us build a culture of true belonging. Experian is proud to be an equal opportunity employer and we take affirmative action to create a more inclusive and equitable world of work. We are committed to equal employment opportunities regardless of age, disability, gender identity, marital status, race, ethnicity, faith or belief, sexual orientation, socioeconomic background, Veteran status or whether you’re pregnant or on family leave.
We're looking for a Scrum Master to join our engineering team.
You will act as the servant-leader for our one or more of our engineering teams, helping teams in Agile principles, practices and frameworks appropriate to the team's context.
You will have a relentless focus on continually improving the performance of the team and the environment they are operating in, fostering an inclusive, safe environment in which all team members can thrive and be their best.
Where organisational barriers are found, you will constructively challenge these and work with the wider community to ensure we are solving system-wide problems and not just local ones.
Key Responsibilities:
- Educates teams on self-organisation and fosters an environment for high-performing team dynamics, continuous flow, and relentless improvement
- Coaches the team on their chosen framework and agile ways of working.
- Ensures appropriate facilitation of meetings.
- Provides coaching and assistance to the team's Product Owner to ensure effective product backlog management and goal definition.
- Helps facilitate a good relationship between Engineering and Product to ensure a healthy balance between engineering excellence and customer value delivery.
Ideally you will possess a relevant certification (CSM, PSM SSM or equivalent) but this is not essential – just a passion for servant leadership will suffice!
Everyone has different experience, and so please don’t rule yourself out if you cannot ‘tick’ all of the qualities mentioned above. Talk to us about the experience that you do have.
