Agile Coach

Purple Drive

Overview:

Agile Coach

  • The Agile Coach is a cornerstone role in building and shaping a new Agile Center of Excellence from the ground up. This is a rare opportunity to help define how Agile comes to life across IT, working alongside teams as they take their very first steps on their Agile journey and experience the power of great execution.
  • Rather than operating from the sidelines, this role embeds directly with delivery teams to make Agile real. The Agile Coach brings sprint ceremonies to life, strengthens delivery discipline, and partners closely with product owners, scrum leads, engineers, and IT leaders to drive meaningful progress. Through hands on coaching, the role removes blockers, addresses Agile anti patterns, and builds strong, resilient team dynamics in real time.
  • This position is ideal for someone who thrives in the early stages of transformation, and is excited to influence mindsets, establish working norms, and help teams achieve their first wins while navigating early challenges. The Agile Coach will have a visible and lasting impact by setting the foundation for consistent delivery, scalable practices, and a shared understanding of what "great Agile" truly looks like, starting from day one.
Responsibilities
  • Provide hands-on Agile coaching by embedding with delivery teams and leaders to strengthen execution, reinforce effective Agile practices, and improve delivery outcomes.
  • Coach teams, Product Owners, and Scrum Leads to improve flow, clarify roles, maintain healthy backlogs, and consistently deliver usable working outcomes.
  • Identify and address delivery blockers, Agile anti-patterns, and team or leadership behaviors that negatively impact predictability and throughput.
  • Support Agile adoption efforts by coaching teams and leaders through onboarding, launch, and stabilization phases, and helping the organization transition to Agile ways of working.
  • Reinforce consistent use of Agile tools and practices to ensure work remains visible, current, and aligned to agreed execution standards, enabling reliable insights and data driven improvement.
  • Partner with the Agile Center of Excellence to share lessons learned, support lightweight standards and training, and continuously improve Agile enablement approaches across IT.
Qualifications:
  • 8+ years of related experience in Project Management or similar field.
  • Previous leadership experience preferred.
  • Intermediate knowledge of general Financial Services or Banking is preferred.
  • Intermediate knowledge of applicable regulatory and legal compliance obligations, rules and regulations, industry standards and practices.
  • Intermediate to advanced experience in IT project management managing large, complex projects with a proven track record of delivering projects on time, within budget, and to quality standards.
  • Advanced experience working with project management tools (e.g., Workfront, MS Project, or similar).
  • Strong understanding of IT systems, software development life cycles (SDLC), and cloud technologies while also demonstrating strong organizational and interpersonal skills with the ability to build relationships with team members, stakeholders, and external partners.
  • Advanced speaking and writing communication skills.
  • Project Management Professional Certification, Certified Scrum Master (CSM), Professional Scrum Master (PSM), or equivalent certification
  • May require up to 25% travel.
