The Scrum Master Industry

The Scrum Master and agile delivery industry has changed with the increased use of artificial intelligence. The role is certainly not redundant; it has evolved, particularly as agile delivery is now standard across banking, government, insurance, and telecommunications in Australia. A significant portion of these organisations have moved delivery into scaled agile, so there’s steady demand for Scrum Masters across the country.

Ignite has helped a variety of organisations fill agile coaching and Scrum Master roles across Sydney, Melbourne, and Canberra, with Canberra primarily focused on government-specific roles. As the industry continues to evolve, organisations are asking for more experience with running ceremonies, project management, domain knowledge, and scaled frameworks like SAFe. Backed by an extensive network of partners, Ignite is always on the lookout for senior Scrum Masters, agile coaches, and release train engineers.

For Employers:

While 94% of Scrum Master jobs have been contract based roles, Ignite fills both contract and permanent positions. We start by understanding the role, scoping the delivery environment, and confirming the framework required, so only the most suitable candidates are put forward. For government or specialised roles, we make sure candidates hold the baseline clearance levels required and have the relevant delivery management experience that government Scrum demands. In hiring an entire team, a single Scrum Master, a candidate with release train experience, or a SAFe program specialist, many of our recruiters have client-side experience working alongside these roles and can make sure every unique requirement is ticked off. We've helped countless organisations find the right people for agile coaching, product ownership, delivery management, and business transformation.

Our Specialisations

Ignite is an IT and technology specialist recruitment agency. We’re not a generalist agency, and we don’t hire for every role. We have a particular interest in government-specific roles, and we also work with public and private organisations across the country to fill niche and complex positions in technology and Scrum.

For many of our clients, the best person for the role isn’t trawling the job boards. They may already be in a position and will need to be headhunted directly. We have an extensive network of experts to draw on, and we make sure every candidate we put forward meets and exceeds the requirements for the role.
