The Role
The next Scrum Master at Public Affairs Institute will inherit a general team that respects Time Management and is allergic to busywork. The thing worth noting is how much Public Affairs Institute trusts you here — $73,000 - $103,000, general ownership, and a long runway, all from 5 years in.
Key Responsibilities
- Chase down the root cause instead of slapping on a patch
- Catch the small playfully-serious details that derail general launches
- Ensure compliance with company policies and applicable SC regulations
- Keep skills current through ongoing training and self-directed learning
- Earn the trust to make customer-obsessed judgment calls without a committee
What You'll Bring
- Comfort being accountable for an oddball-friendly outcome in a full-time role
- Curiosity and a continuous drive to sharpen your general craft
- 5 years of learning when to trust the process and when to break it
- A team player who lifts up colleagues and shares credit
- Customer-focused outlook with strong interpersonal skills
- The kind of listening that makes the other person feel heard
