About this opportunity
In the Economic Crime Prevention Platform we’re evolving our technology and data landscape to have the best systems and controls in place to detect and disrupt criminal activity - Delivering at pace and being able to adjust our focus and looking at how we can relentlessly improve is key to this, and we strive to do this in a safe and inclusive environment where colleagues can be their absolute best.
We believe that people don't always fit neatly into roles, and we value everyone's individual skills, experience, and knowledge — it's what makes you unique!
As a Scrum Master you’ll operate at Team level as a change agent with a passion for working with people and teams to help them reach their best and deliver their best for customers and the group.

Here’s where you’ll make a difference:
- Serve & Support the Team and Lab to utilise Agile frameworks (Scaling, Scrum, Kanban etc) and Agile events (Scrum of Scrums, PI planning, retrospectives etc) to understand the value and purpose of them.
- Help the Product Owner to manage an effective Product Backlog
- Promote best practices in refinement, prioritisation, customer engagement and introducing tools and techniques.
- Coach and empower your team to self-manage, utilise feedback for continuous learning and improvement in efficient and incremental value delivery.
- Enable the team to understand and visualise the optimal sequence of work, measure and understand their performance through metrics (throughput, cycle time, happiness etc) and use this as the basis for their improvement activity.
- Have a learning/curious mind set. Show energy, and enthusiasm for creative disruption and to continuously strive to improve the organisation, team, and your knowledge and skills
