Agile Scrum Master - 12-18 Month Contract
Bath, Somerset
£500 - £600/day
Posted 4 days ago
About the role
YT Technologies is currently representing a high-growth, multi-award-winning enterprise software provider delivering critical digital solutions across the healthcare and public sector ecosystems.
Unlike typical short-term, 3-month contract assignments, our client is seeking an experienced, high-calibre Agile Scrum Master for a long-term 12 to 18-month assignment. Joining a mature, cross-functional product environment (comprising Developers, Product Owners, UX Designers, and Agile Coaches), you will help guide and empower software engineering teams to deliver high-impact value.
The Role & Culture
Our client operates with a progressive, highly autonomous flat structure—there are no line managers or rigid corporate bureaucracies. Scrum Masters in this organisation act as true servant-leaders and agile coaches rather than traditional taskmasters.
Key Responsibilities:
*
Servant-Leadership: Guide, coach, and support cross-functional engineering teams in embedding agile values, principles, and scrum practices.
*
Outcome & Value Focus: Shift team focus towards delivering tangible customer outcomes and long-term value rather than simple output.
*
Impediment Removal & Facilitation: Facilitate core scrum ceremonies (timeboxing effectively) and proactively resolve blockers to keep delivery momentum smooth.
*
Backlog & Product Collaboration: Partner closely with Product Owners on backlog refinement, effective planning techniques, and establishing shared goals across squads.
*
Trust & Transparency: Build psychological safety within teams so conflicts are handled constructively and continuous improvement is championed.
*
Cross-Team Synergy: Collaborate with fellow Scrum Masters to align best practices across multiple delivery squads.
About You
We are seeking an empathetic, curious, and structured Scrum Master who views agile as a collaborative mindset rather than a rigid set of rules.
*
SaaS / Technical Environment: Proven track record scrum mastering within technical software engineering, SaaS, or complex digital product teams.
*
Facilitation & Coaching Skills: Outstanding communication skills with a passion for mentoring individuals, coaching teams, and driving sustainable delivery paces.
*
Long-Term Commitment: Fully comfortable committing to a 12–18 month contract, including an initial onboarding period working closely alongside existing squads to absorb domain context.
*
Autonomous Mindset: Comfortable navigating a manager-free environment where you take personal accountability for team enablement
