At Slalom, personal connection meets global scale. Our vision is to enable a world in which everyone loves their work and life. We help organizations of all kinds redefine what's possible, give shape to the future-and get there.

What You'll Do

• Own end-to-end delivery for a client solution, serving as the day-to-day delivery lead and key liaison between product, technology, business, and governance stakeholders.
• Establish and operate within an Agile delivery and governance framework (team cadence, ceremonies, backlog refinement, dependency management, issue/risk management).
• Translate business needs into clear, actionable user stories that development teams can estimate and deliver against.
• Lead a cross-functional Agile delivery team by role and influence (often flexing across delivery leadership, Scrum facilitation, analysis, and quality activities).
• Collaborate closely with engineering leadership (especially the Solution Architect) to define/validate technical approach, strategy, and delivery milestones.
• Drive quality and release confidence by partnering on test planning, sprint verification, and supporting UAT and business acceptance.
• Identify delivery/process inefficiencies and champion continuous improvement across team ways of working.

What You'll Bring

• 10+ years of experience spanning software development and project/delivery management roles with increasing responsibility (building, shipping, and leading teams delivering software).
• Agile certification required (e.g., CSM/PSM, SAFe, or equivalent).
• Demonstrated success facilitating large client groups-confident leading workshops, steering conversations to decisions, and aligning diverse stakeholders.
• Deep knowledge of Agile software delivery (Scrum/Kanban), including running ceremonies, backlog refinement, estimation, and iterative planning.
• Proven program/project management fundamentals-status, scope, budget awareness, RAID management, and dependency coordination.
