Job Description

At TrueLayer, we want the financial system to work for everyone — so we've made it our mission to open up access and put fintech at people's fingertips.

We’re looking for Agile Delivery Coaches who thrive on enabling others to succeed. Working with multi-disciplinary teams, you’ll focus on the process of product delivery, helping us become more effective through the application of agile practices and facilitating better communication and collaboration both within and between teams.

Our challenges:

  • We want to scale in a healthy way, identify the traits of high performing teams and establish repeatable patterns for product delivery
  • We want to empower our teams to operate autonomously and give them the support they need to execute effectively
  • We recognise that the process of agile delivery is a discipline in itself and cannot assume that all of our team leads (product and engineering) have had first-hand experience of implementing and/or working in an effective agile environment
  • We want to ensure all teams are getting the most out of our agile delivery tools, specifically JIRA
  • We are still working in a largely remote fashion and need to remain effective regardless of the location of our teams
  • We want TrueLayer to be an exceptional place to work. We want our processes and interactions to stay honest, genuine and human as the company grows.

What we expect from you, as an Agile Coach:

  • Get the best from everyone to achieve our strategic goals
  • Create a frictionless working culture, driving a collaborative work culture
  • Evangelise agile ways of working and best practices with department leads
  • Develop autonomous teams.
  • Lead with a continuous improvement mindset
  • Work side by side with Product Managers and Engineering Leads to effectively plan the delivery of work within your teams against strategic roadmaps
  • Share your knowledge to encourage continued learning and application of best practice
  • Communicate progress of delivery and manage expectations with all key stakeholders

What you can expect from us:

  • Competitive salary and meaningful equity in the company 💰
  • Flexible hours and hybrid working — work from home🏡 and our incredible offices in London 🇬🇧 Milan 🇮🇹 Sydney 🇦🇺 and Dublin 🇮🇪
  • A remote-working budget to help set up your home office 💺
  • Flexible holiday policy, with 24 days as standard ✈️
  • Generous parental leave, above and beyond statutory requirements and with no minimum tenure 👩‍👩‍👦
  • Enhanced pension contribution at 4% & 4% 👵🏽 👴🏽
  • Private Health Insurance from the day you start 🧑🏽‍⚕️
  • 12 fully-paid Wellbeing Days a year (on top of the holiday allowance) 🕊️
  • Membership of mental wellbeing platform Spill 🧘🏽‍♀️
  • £1,000 to spend on learning & development each year 📚
  • £500 per quarter (outside of required business travel) to visit our hub cities around the world 🌎

Compensation

£65,000 - £75,000 + equity

Requirements

Requirements

  • Experience working in a product-centric environment that often requires multiple teams working together to achieve company objectives
  • Thorough understanding of JIRA, from configuration to day-to-day planning and execution
  • Comprehensive knowledge of agile practices and methodologies, and when to apply them
  • Understand what success looks like and how to measure it

We’d be particularly excited if you have:

  • Knowledge of the roadmapping tools
  • Experience coordinating complex cross-team projects

Inclusion & Diversity

At TrueLayer, we embrace people that have different perspectives and personalities. We believe that by seeing the world from all sorts of angles, we can make life better for all the people who live in it. So we want you to know that the things that make you, you — like your age, background and identity — are things that we celebrate and support. All we ask is that you believe in what you do.
