Role overview We are hiring an Agile PMO Consultant to support large-scale programs across our portfolio. You will run the project and portfolio rhythm: keeping Jira accurate, preparing executives for decisions, and keeping teams on track against integrated program timelines.
Key responsibilities Program management and agile delivery
Build and maintain the integrated program plan against a timeline: milestones, critical path and cross-team dependencies.
Run the program governance cadence, including program syncs, cross-team stand-ups, sprint reviews, and milestone readiness checkpoints.
Track progress, risks, issues, and dependencies. Escalate early with a recommended path forward when milestones are at risk.
Maintain program artifacts: integrated timeline, RAID log, resource and capacity views, and status reporting.
Help teams apply agile practices consistently while staying aligned to fixed program dates, and suggest improvements where the process slows delivery.
Jira administration and reporting
Own Jira tracking across teams: boards, epics, features, workflows, fields, and naming standards.
Build and maintain dashboards, filters, and JQL queries that give leaders a reliable view of progress.
Produce program metrics such as velocity, burn-up, flow, and progress against program milestones, and explain what they mean.
Executive engagement
Prepare and facilitate meetings with senior client leaders, including steering committees, portfolio reviews, and leadership syncs.
Turn complex delivery data into concise, executive-ready updates and presentations.
Drive decisions: frame the options, capture outcomes, and follow through on action items.
Consulting
Build trusted relationships with client stakeholders at every level.
Spot problems before they are raised and take ownership of solving them.
Contribute to firm initiatives, knowledge sharing and, where appropriate, new business opportunities.
Required qualifications
1–5 years of experience in project management, PMO, agile delivery, or management consulting.
Strong program management fundamentals: integrated planning, milestone and critical-path tracking, dependency and risk management, status reporting.
Hands-on experience working in an agile environment (Scrum and/or Kanban).
Strong knowledge of SAFe and scaled agile concepts, with the judgment to apply them in a program run on a fixed, integrated timeline.
Advanced Jira skills: board and workflow configuration, dashboards, filters and JQL.
Confidence leading meetings and discussions with senior leaders and executives.
Excellent written and verbal communication, with strong PowerPoint and Excel skills.
Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience.
Preferred qualifications
A project management or agile certification, such as CAPM, PMP, PMI-ACP, CSM, PSM, or a SAFe certification (e.g. SAFe Agilist or SAFe Scrum Master) preferred but not required.
Prior consulting or client-facing experience.
Familiarity with Confluence or other collaboration tools that pair with Jira.
Who thrives here
You will succeed in this role if you:
Bring polish and presence. You represent the firm with poise, professionalism, and attention to detail in every interaction and deliverable.
Lead with initiative. You are a go-getter who acts before being asked, owns outcomes, and follows through.
Thrive in consulting. You enjoy fast-paced, ambiguous work, adapt quickly to new stakeholders, and stay calm under pressure.
Collaborate with warmth. You build trust with teams and executives alike, listen well, and communicate with tact.
