Job Description

What is the opportunity?

RBC is in the process of changing how people think about and interact with the bank on a daily basis. No longer do we want to be transactional and episodic, but instead find interesting ways to be a part of everyone’s daily lives. To achieve this, RBC Ventures operate like startups to find interesting new ideas that will be in many cases, unrelated to traditional banking products.

The Agile Delivery Manager leverages agile and traditional project management frameworks and practices to lead the delivery of value-driving initiatives. This individual will work with business and technology stakeholders to mobilize roadmaps into execution; communicate risks, assumptions, highlight team and project impediments and champion a culture of continuous improvement within the delivery practice in a fast-paced environment.

  • Engage in and facilitate requirements, user experience and technical conversations across platforms and multiple levels of influence

  • Provide proactive coaching to individuals on the business and technology teams to help mature the agile delivery practice

Cross-Functional Communication and Reporting

  • Communicate cross functionally, ensuring transparency of progress and outcomes, report team progress and accomplishments up and across the organization

  • Drive stakeholder meetings to ensure transparency and accountability across the organization & facilitate cross functional communication by documented status updates, sprint/product demos and team retrospectives

What do you need to succeed?

Must Have's:

  • 4-5 years of experience as a Scrum Master/Delivery Manager  – where agile and project management principles, practices and theory were diligently applied

  • Minimum of 5 years of experience in working within software development and/or project management and/or business (system) analysis
