In this role, you will lead the alignment of agile and application development practices across SAS, working closely with product owners, developers, scrum masters, and transformation teams.
To be successful, we believe you have:
* Deep understanding of agile frameworks (SAFe, Scrum, Kanban) and scaling agile in large organisations.
* Strong leadership, coaching, and facilitation skills.
* Ability to influence and align diverse stakeholders.
* Strategic thinking with hands-on delivery mindset.
* Excellent communication and change management capabilities.
* Strong grasp of software development lifecycle, engineering principles, and agile technical practices.
