Agile Transformation Coach

There isn’t a more exciting time to be a part of the journey with the Geo-MCAPS HRC team. Our overall mission is to evolve our model into the next phase so we can bring greater consistency and simplicity to how we work, innovate the way we deliver our global programs and ensure we are investing our time in proactive and predictive experiences.

We are pioneering a new way of working to help us to this. Agile isn’t new but it is new for us as a HR team. Using our new ‘Agile methodology’ in how we work, we will bring discipline, transparency, and accelerated ways of designing & delivering inclusive HR solutions together across the globe.

Being able to deliver rapid change across our HR processes and products in this way will be a key enabler to our overall HR transformation. The Agile HR team and ‘squads’ within HRC will have very clear ‘missions’ which will be aligned to our quarterly priorities.

The team will bring diverse perspectives to re-imagining our work, from across HR through their global & multi-disciplinary construct and will work full time to solve for some of our most important and complex challenges/priorities.

To help each of the squads adjust to this new way of working they will be supported by an ‘Agile Transformation Coach’ (this role), ‘Product Owners (PO’s)’ and ‘Scrum Masters’, who will support, guide and coach them during each phase of the work.
