Agile Coach

We’re looking for
talented coaches

Agility in Mind is a business agility transformation company.

We’re looking for permanent agile coaches, consultants and trainers who want to help a wide variety of organisations move from traditional ways of working to survive and grow as agile organisations.

We believe that the best coaches have plenty of stories to share from their vast experience in a variety of organisations . Our coaches enjoy working as part of a team, with the freedom to make decisions in the best interests of our clients. In return, we expect our coaches to epitomise the values we prescribe: commitment, courage, focus, openness and respect. Practical experience is crucial. Teamwork is key.

Coaching with Agility in Mind

At Agility in Mind we believe in helping organisations, teams, and individuals improve their delivery of long-term value – using agile principles and practices as an enabler for change.

The majority of our coaching engagements follow a simple model:

  • Discovery – finding out what the client’s issues are and formulating a roadmap.
  • High impact training – ensuring everyone understands the basics and has a common vocabulary.
  • Coaching delivery – using a combination of tools, such as workshops, coaching, leading by example, and mentoring, we help teams put their skills into practice.

Ultimately, we’re aiming to take the client on a journey to become self-sufficient so they can continue to drive improvements and adoption without dependence on a long-term agile coach.

There is no such thing as a typical week at Agility in Mind. One day you might find yourself delivering a BDD training course for a start-up, the next a Story Mapping workshop for a blue-chip organisation. One thing is certain, there’s plenty of variety. We have a healthy internal culture of sharing lessons learnt and new ideas through our quarterly team days and regular meet-ups.
