About the Company
Davidson has partnered with Barwon Water to appoint an Agile Delivery Lead to play a pivotal role in driving the successful delivery of strategic technology and transformation initiatives across the organisation.
About the Role
We are seeking an experienced Agile Delivery Lead to drive a business-wide Agile capability uplift program. This is not a traditional Scrum Master role.

Key responsibilities:

- Define, implement, and continuously improve Agile ways of working aligned to organisational objectives.

- Drive Agile adoption, maturity assessments, and continuous improvement initiatives.
- Work closely with senior stakeholders to establish scalable delivery frameworks and operating models.
- Design, build, and optimise Jira workflows, dashboards, reporting structures, and metrics.
- Consolidate and integrate reporting across Jira, Power BI, and existing presentation/reporting processes.
- Develop meaningful delivery insights and portfolio reporting to support leadership decision-making.
- Support teams in planning, prioritisation, dependency management, and delivery execution.
- Champion a culture of collaboration, transparency, accountability, and continuous improvement.
About You
You are a pragmatic Agile practitioner who can balance coaching, change leadership, and hands-on delivery execution. You have successfully helped organisations embed Agile practices beyond individual teams and understand how to drive sustainable adoption.
Relevant skills & experience:
- Demonstrated experience leading Agile transformations, capability uplift programs, or organisational Agile adoption initiatives.

- Excellent facilitation, communication, and change management skills.
- Experience delivering Agile transformations in large enterprise environments.
- Experience with Power BI reporting and data visualisation.
- Exposure to portfolio management, PMO functions, or enterprise delivery frameworks.
- Relevant Agile certifications (SAFe, Certified Scrum Professional, ICAgile, Scrum Master, etc.).
The Benefits
This is an opportunity to join an organisation undertaking one of regional Victoria's most significant transformation agendas while playing a key leadership role in shaping delivery capability and performance.
