Scrum Master II
Hybrid – Swindon or London
Salary - £50,000 to £65,000 + Bonus

From The Scrum Guide 2020:

“The Scrum Master is accountable for establishing Scrum as defined in the Scrum Guide. They do this by helping everyone understand Scrum theory and practice, both within the Scrum Team and the organisation.

The Scrum Master is accountable for the Scrum Team’s effectiveness. They do this by enabling the Scrum Team to improve its practices, within the Scrum framework.

Scrum Masters are true leaders who serve the Scrum Team and the larger organisation.”

Source : https://scrumguides.org/docs/scrumguide/v2020/2020-Scrum-Guide-US.pdf (contains full description.)

The Scrum Master II role is the continuation of an Agile career.

The Scrum Master role at Edenred PayTech closely follows the definition in the Scrum Guide. Additionally we ask our Scrum Masters to gain and practice skills from wider Agile disciplines such as Kanban, Disciplined Agile, and Better Value Sooner Safer Happier, as we realise that one-Scrum-size does not fit all team contexts.

The Scrum Master does not govern nor manage the Product Backlog for the team. This is done jointly by the Product Manager/Product Owner, and the team (via pulling work into the Sprint Backlog each sprint). The Scrum Master facilitates, and encourages such backlog grooming and refinement.

Importantly a key aspect of the Scrum Master’s role is to champion early detection and removal / mitigation of cross-team dependencies. Such can create bottlenecks, ie: constraints that left unresolved will slow throughput of value to zero.

The Scrum Master II role typically covers two teams, and a person in this role demonstrates the 8 Stances of the Scrum Master. The Scrum Master as a:

Servant Leader Coach Facilitator Teacher Mentor Manager Impediment Remover Change Agent

1. Scrum/Kanban Team

9. Discovers and commits Objectives and Key Results at the team level to measure success of WoW changes; uses metrics-as-feedback (eg: via LinearB) to establish a culture of evidence-based continuous improvement.
10. Coaches and influences the Scrum Team towards improving WoW while taking into account, and balancing all aspects of Better Value Sooner Safer Happier.
11. Proactively identifies, triages, unblocks, and escalates impediments impacting the Scrum Team. Establishes a culture of preventing impediments from occurring in preference to mitigating after-the-event.
