• Lead Scrum activities such as daily stand-ups, backlog refinement, sprint planning, and other team meetings with a high level of ownership and initiative.
• Coordinate project activities across teams, track progress, and help remove obstacles that could affect delivery timelines or outcomes.
• Review existing workflows and data processes to identify gaps, recommend improvements, and support solution planning.
• Work with internal teams and external partners to communicate updates, confirm requirements, and align on project expectations.
• Provide additional analytical or coordination support as needed to meet changing business priorities.• Bachelor’s degree in a related discipline or an equivalent combination of education and relevant experience.
• At least 5 years of experience in business analysis, Scrum leadership, project coordination, or a closely related function.
• Demonstrated experience supporting the design, development, and implementation of software systems, products, or technology solutions.
• Strong practical knowledge of Agile and Scrum methods, including running ceremonies, managing backlogs, and writing user stories.
• Proficiency with business and documentation tools such as Word, Excel, Visio, and Outlook, along with experience using a work management platform.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills with the ability to present information clearly in both one-on-one and group settings.
• Proven ability to analyze documents, solve problems efficiently, and work collaboratively with team members, customers, and third-party partners.
• Background in financial services, including investments, life, or annuity environments, is preferred but not required.
