Agile Coach

FCC / FAC•Regina, SK

3d•CA$94,620 - CA$128,020•Hybrid

About The Position

As an Agile Coach at FCC, you will be an Agile champion, supporting teams as they reflect, adapt, and continuously improve. You will use facilitation and coaching to deepen their understanding of Agile principles through discussions, training, and day-to-day guidance. Your role will involve simplifying complex concepts and fostering a culture of learning, encouraging creativity, transparency, and teamwork in a fast-paced environment. You will also remove obstacles and enable teams to self-organize and collaborate effectively. This is a hands-on role for someone who has helped established Agile teams continue to evolve. You will bring strong coaching and Scrum Master experience, guiding teams that already understand Agile practices to apply them more effectively, strengthen collaboration, and elevate how they deliver value. This is not a Project Manager role focused on timelines, budgets, or delivery tracking; it’s about coaching beyond the basics to help teams grow and perform at their best.

Requirements

Minimum five to eight years of experience in Agile environments, with a focus on team-level coaching and training
Proven experience with Scrum and Kanban, deep expertise in Agile principles and strong understanding of product-centric delivery models

Practical experience facilitating core Scrum events, including daily scrums, sprint planning, reviews/demos and retrospectives, with documented outcomes
Experience coaching teams with daily delivery work, strengthening maturity, collaboration and value delivery (this is not project coordination focused on timelines or budgets)
Experience coaching well-established Agile teams, helping them deepen their agile mindset, collaboration methods, and delivery maturity
Experience using metrics and maturity indicators to identify opportunities, measure progress and clearly link coaching actions to improved team outcomes

Nice To Haves

A degree in business administration, computer science, education, social science or psychology

Supplemental training on Agile delivery or coaching, and advanced facilitation experience leading workshops such as story mapping, design thinking, root cause analysis or value stream mapping
Knowledge of FCC business processes and agriculture lending practices
Experience in long-term Agile coaching engagements where the focus was on elevating mature teams, not only introducing tools or practices such as Jira, PI planning or backlog creation
