Agile Coach | Outside ir35| £430p/d | Bedford

Opus are currently working with a key client on an Agile Coach role. This will be a key role in the development of the team.

Essential skills:

• Initially work alongside the Senior Delivery Manager, coordinating delivery across squads, then move into a stronger coaching and enablement role as the programme matures.
• Embed pragmatic ways of working: backlog, a shared Definition of Ready and Done, a common sprint cadence and managing dependencies between squads, without unnecessary governance.
• Support and coach Delivery Leads and BAs, client Product Owners and teams, using flow metrics (throughput, cycle time) so plans rest on measured delivery rather than assumption.
• Must have: coaching multiple teams on one programme; a Delivery Manager or Scrum Master background; flow metrics and evidence-based forecasting.
• Nice to have: lightweight scaling approaches (e.g. LeSS); teams using AI-assisted delivery; retail or hospitality.
• Looking for someone hands-on and pragmatic, comfortable moving between direct delivery support and Agile coaching.
