About this role

Job Description

We aspire to be the premier research-intensive biopharmaceutical company. We're at the forefront of research to deliver innovative health solutions that advance the prevention and treatment of diseases in people and animals. We are looking for a senior, highly adaptable Agile Lead with strong strengths in delivery leadership, stakeholder communication, and team coaching, and solid technical awareness of AI‑enabled and custom AI product development. Join our team and help us use the power of leading-edge science to save and improve lives around the world.

Responsibilities

  • Take active ownership of delivery outcomes, partnering closely with Product, Tech Lead, and Engineering Manager.
  • Act as a delivery leader, supporting teams in meeting commitments, managing dependencies, and addressing risks early.
  • Operate as part of a tight delivery triad with Tech Lead and Engineering Manager, aligning delivery plans, technical direction, capacity, and team health.
  • Coach teams to own delivery outcomes, balancing speed, quality, technical sustainability, and learning.
  • Adapt agile practices (Scrum, Kanban, hybrid) to optimize flow.
  • Support teams through change and complexity while maintaining focus, accountability, and psychological safety.
  • Support teams delivering AI‑enabled products and custom AI engineering solutions.
  • Maintain working knowledge of current AI trends, including LLM‑based systems and AI‑augmented workflows.
  • Partner with engineers and AI specialists to ensure ways of working support experimentation and learning.
  • Serve as a key interface between teams and senior stakeholders, grounding discussions in clear delivery metrics and evidence.
  • Establish and evolve meaningful delivery metrics (e.g., flow, predictability, quality, risk signals) to support transparency and decision‑making.
  • Translate delivery data into clear, actionable insights, avoiding vanity metrics or reporting for its own sake.
  • Use metrics to enable better conversations around trade‑offs, priorities, capacity, and risk.
  • Shape and evolve organizational ways of working as technology and delivery models change.
  • Promote learning, inspection, and adaptation at team and system level.

Requirements

  • Extensive senior‑level experience as an Agile Lead, Scrum Master, or Agile Coach.
  • Strong track record in delivery ownership, team coaching, and stakeholder engagement.
  • Experience in complex, enterprise, or regulated environments.
  • Solid understanding of AI‑enabled product development, particularly custom AI solutions.
  • Ability to engage confidently with technical teams without being a hands‑on engineer.
  • Ongoing curiosity about recent AI developments and their delivery implications.
  • Highly adaptable and comfortable with change.
  • Clear, credible communicator at both team and leadership level.
  • Strong coaching mindset with the ability to challenge constructively.

Nice to have

  • Experience in global projects and international environments.
  • Familiarity with hybrid working models and flexible role patterns.
