About the Job you are considering:
We are seeking an experienced Scrum Master with strong expertise in the Banking and Finance domain who will oversee the planning, execution, and successful delivery of projects.
Hybrid working:
The places that you work from day to day will vary according to your role, your needs, and those of the business; it will be a blend of company offices, client sites, and your home. You will be unable to work at home 100% of the time.
Your Role:
* Lead Agile squads through Scrum ceremonies (stand‑ups, refinement, planning, demos, retrospectives) with disciplined execution.
* Drive predictable sprint delivery, ensuring clear sprint goals, prioritised backlogs, capacity planning, and high team velocity.
* Maintain and track delivery metrics (burndown, cycle time, throughput, flow efficiency) and identify improvement opportunities:
o Customer data ingestion pipelines
o Master reference data layers
o Data quality, profiling and validation services
o Data APIs and customer identity resolution features
o Data lineage governance, metadata and cataloguing (e.g. Collibra, Atlas)
* Ensure alignment with data architecture, information security, and regulatory obligations (GDPR, CDE, BCBS239).
* Work with Technical Leads and Architects to ensure definition of done (DoD) and non‑functional requirements. NFRs and acceptance criteria are consistently met.
* Stakeholder management and communication.
* Collaborate closely with Product Owners, Programme Managers, Data Architects, Engineers and Business SMEs across multiple streams.
* Clearly communicate sprint progress, impediments, capacity constraints and risks to senior stakeholders.
* Facilitate alignment across squads and shared components (platform, data governance, cloud engineering, DevOps).
* Continuous improvement, team development.
* Embed Agile best practices and coach teams on Scrum, Kanban and scaled Agile ways of working.
* Identify inefficiencies and help teams adopt better working patterns around data modelling, ETL development, automated testing and CI/CD pipelines.
* Mentor teams to become self‑organising and reinforce Agile principles such as transparency, inspection, adaptation and value delivery.
* Risk controls and compliance.
* Ensure delivery processes adhere to Barclays controls framework, change management and audit expectations.
* Support teams in maintaining artefacts for model data governance compliance reviews and operational readiness.
* Proactively manage risks, RAID logs, dependencies and technical blockers.
