• Proven experience implementing improvements that demonstrably increased team effectiveness, delivery predictability, transparency or overall delivery flow.
• Strong coaching and facilitation skills, with the ability to build self-managing teams, address conflicts constructively and challenge established ways of working.

We are looking for someone who brings positive energy, proactively identifies opportunities for improvement and follows through to achieve tangible results.
• Ability to influence Product Owners, developers, stakeholders and management, and promote Agile principles beyond Scrum events.
• A Scrum Master certification (e.g. PSM I/II or CSM) is welcome, but practical knowledge and demonstrated experience are more important than certification alone.

• Willingness to travel to Vienna occasionally

• Facilitate Scrum events effectively: Ensure Sprint Planning, Daily Scrums, Sprint Reviews and Retrospectives have a clear purpose and lead to meaningful outcomes and actionable improvements.
• Coach and develop the team: Foster self-management, shared ownership, cross-functionality and a continuous improvement mindset, helping the team embrace Agile principles rather than simply follow ceremonies.
• Remove impediments and improve delivery flow: Address blockers, dependencies, conflicting priorities and unnecessary interruptions to enable the team to focus on delivering value.
• Partner with the Product Owner and Solution Manager: Improve backlog readiness, prioritisation and delivery transparency, while contributing to end-to-end improvements of the demand management process in close collaboration with the Solution Manager.
• Drive continuous improvement and Agile adoption: Identify opportunities to improve team effectiveness, delivery predictability and stakeholder collaboration, using evidence and feedback to implement sustainable changes across the team and the wider organisation.
