Your role and responsibilities   

As an Agile Coach your work will include leading Energy Technology ‑level planning and delivery cadences, owning and evolving the Agile Delivery Model, coaching leaders and teams in product thinking and outcome‑driven delivery, enabling alignment and flow across teams by removing blockers and dependencies, strengthening the use of Jira and Miro to support transparency and execution, and facilitating communication, learning, and continuous improvement during the Product Operating Model transformation.

• Support and evolve the Agile Delivery Model to support portfolio‑level governance, predictable execution, and outcome‑driven delivery across teams and products. 

• Enable value stream alignment and transparency by strengthening the use of Jira and Miro for portfolio planning, dependency management, and execution visibility. 

• Support data‑driven portfolio decisions by leveraging planning, flow, and delivery metrics to improve OKR progress, prioritisation, and delivery outcomes. 

• Coach leaders and teams in product thinking, outcome‑oriented delivery, and OKR‑based planning suited to a mature product and value‑stream‑oriented organisation. 

• Act as a core member of the Agile Office, ensuring Technology‑level ways of working are aligned with enterprise governance, strategy execution, and operating model principles. 

• Build strong networks and collaborate across Technology, Product, value streams, and internal stakeholders to reduce dependencies, improve flow, and drive continuous improvement at portfolio scale. 

To be able to succeed in the position, we expect you to have:  

• Relevant education: BSc or MSc in technology, business, design, or another field that supports systems thinking.

• Strong facilitation & coaching: Ability to coach leaders and teams and confidently facilitate complex, cross‑team discussions. 

• Agile product mindset: Positive and resilient attitude, focused on customer value, outcomes over outputs, OKRs, and learning through experimentation. 

• Hands‑on tools & ways of working: Practical experience with Jira and Miro, and interest in AI and data‑driven work. 

• Transformation experience: Experience leading change and transformation in hybrid software‑hardware environments, with design thinking or service design as a bonus.
