About the team:

Working at the forefront of multiple industries, our Cloud First Advisory team leads the design and delivery of some of the largest, most complex, and highest-profile cloud enabled business transformations in the world. We bring together deep cloud technology, agility and business expertise to define strategy, architect scalable cloud solutions, and drive transformation at scale.

As a Business Agility Consultant you will:

• Be are a trusted partner, challenger, and catalyst — helping organisations and the people within them to think and work differently
• Bring a rare combination of deep expertise and genuine human warmth: the ability to build lasting relationships, navigate complexity with a positive can-do attitude, and inspire those around you through authentic passion for continuous improvement
• Lead by example, challenge the status quo constructively, and foster a culture of experimentation, innovation, and psychological safety.
• Critically you will bring genuine curiosity about the areas you haven't yet mastered — whether that's AI-augmented delivery, operating model design, or emerging thought leadership — and you actively invest in your own growth as much as your clients' and colleagues'

Coaching & Team Enablement

• Coach squads, leaders, and business/technical stakeholders at all levels, adapting style and approach to context.
• Launch and sustain teams across short and long-term engagements — supporting vision creation, forecasting, prioritisation, and self-organisation.
• Facilitate the full range of team and programme/scaled agile events, ensuring they are purposeful, time-boxed, and genuinely valuable.
• Develop rotating facilitation responsibilities as a core mechanism for team growth, maturity, and self-management.
• Support the resolution of interpersonal conflict through coaching on collaborative problem-solving and decision-making.
• Champion personal development and a continuous learning mindset across individuals and teams.
• Cultivate agile and growth mindsets — not just as process compliance, but as a genuine shift in how people think and act.

Product & Delivery Leadership

• Coach product managers and product owners to embed a genuine product culture and build customer-driven, outcome-oriented roadmaps.
• Facilitate technical and strategic discussions to achieve clarity, alignment, and actionable outcomes on complex problems.
• Apply visualisation techniques and methods to make work, flow, and decisions visible at every level.
• Leverage delivery tooling (e.g. Jira, PPM platforms) to support flow, predictability, and continuous improvement.

Scaling Agility & Organisational Design

• Understand and map an organisation's business and technical processes across IT and non-IT domains, including Value Streams and Business Capabilities.
• Guide outcome-oriented transformations that support organisational maturity, robustness, and reinvention — including Operating Model and Organisational Design considerations.
• Scale lean-agile practices beyond individual teams, driving enterprise-wide agility with sustainable cultural change.
• Educate teams and leaders on methods beyond Scrum — including SAFe, Kanban, Flow, Built-in Quality, Team Topologies, and emerging frameworks.
• Provide thought leadership on Business Agility trends, industry practices, and next-generation approaches.

Data, Insight & AI-Augmented Delivery

• Use data, metrics, and delivery signals to create transparency and drive evidence-based decision-making at team, programme, and portfolio levels.
• Support teams and leaders with data collection practices, metrics hygiene, and outcome-focused reporting.
• Create and interpret dashboards and visualisations that enable continuous improvement and honest conversations.
• Apply AI-assisted analysis and tooling to augment coaching, sense-making, and delivery insight — staying at the forefront of how AI is reshaping the practice of agility.
• Demonstrate a genuine interest in AI and data analytics as strategic levers for transformation, not just operational tools.

What will set you apart:

• Proven experience in complex agile programme management, product management, or Release Train management.
• Knowledge of DevOps practices and Continuous Delivery Pipeline implementation.
• Familiarity with Design Thinking and Human-Centred Design principles.
• A track record of navigating ambiguity and delivering value in imperfect, real-world transformations.
• SPC Certification (SAFe Practice Consultant) and experience in large-scale training design and facilitation.
• Demonstrated ability to contribute to a high-performing practice team — sharing knowledge, supporting colleagues, and building on each other's strengths.
• A visible commitment to thought leadership — through writing, speaking, community involvement, or active participation in emerging conversations around AI, operating model design, and the future of work.
