This is a hands on role and will involve requirements gathering, process mapping, organising/running workshops and identifying and managing stakeholder relationships combined with a focus on how operational/business processes can be improved. Experience of working in an Agile environment would be helpful. The role is based in York and there will be some requirement (maximum 2 days per week) to be in the office so you must be within a reasonable commuting distance.
