Description
Job Introduction
Handelsbanken combines a long-established relationship banking model with secure, resilient, and customer-focused technology. Our technology teams enable the Bank’s decentralised way of working, delivering systems built for stability, trust, and long-term value.
We are on a multi-year technology and digital transformation journey to enhance customer experience and improve how colleagues work together. By modernising platforms, simplifying processes, and better connecting data and systems, we help relationship teams focus on customers and less on complexity.
Our decentralised culture extends to technology. Teams are trusted to take ownership, make informed decisions, and deliver sustainable, high-quality solutions. We value engineering excellence, pragmatic problem-solving, and strong collaboration across technology, business, and risk.
We offer technologists the opportunity to build lasting careers, deepen their expertise, and contribute to meaningful change. We look for people who care about quality, security, long-term impact, and who want to shape the future of a relationship-led bank.

As the Scrum Master (Delivery) you will work with established agile teams using agile methodologies and practices, which may include Scrum and Kanban as well as other approaches, and act as coach, guide, and facilitator to ensure the team’s optimal performance and focus on delivery of value. You will drive continual improvement and support the team’s learning and ever-increasing maturity in agile practices and strong value delivery. Generally, one Scrum Master (Delivery) will work with up to three agile teams.
