Delivery Manager / Scrum Master to join our Research, Data and Digital Directorate. This is a
dual role that blends delivery leadership with hands-on agile coaching—perfect for someone who thrives in dynamic environments and wants to help shape how agile is embedded across digital and data programmes.
As we continue to mature our agile capability, you’ll play a central role in guiding teams, facilitating agile ceremonies, and ensuring delivery is aligned with organisational priorities.

- Translate complex technical concepts into accessible language for stakeholders.
- Promote agile best practices and foster a culture of continuous improvement.
- Engage with senior leaders and cross-functional teams to ensure alignment and transparency.
