Imagine...

You being at the helm in the future design of the Agile organisation and the Agile design principles within Rabobank. You being in charge to direct the Agile (re-)design of a Tribe or Domain within the Bank. In a world full of rapidly developing markets, changing customer needs and fast innovations, joining one of the leading banks when it comes to Agile transformations and definitely a frontrunner in the Agile transformation of the Finance and Risk domain.

Are you comfortable when facing resistance, conceptually strong and are you the solution-oriented team player we are looking for?  

You and your job

On behalf of group management you are in charge of one or more workflows within the Agile Transformation program Simplify@Scale. This program focuses on the (re)design of the operating model for our Agile Tribes (departments). The design principles contain the design of the areas and squads, steering, processes and way of working (target operating model). As a Transformation Consultant, your responsibilities include:

• Co-writing the new organization design or optimization of the design of an existing organization
• Securing processes within the organization that support the Agile way of working
• Refining what has already been rolled out. Topics you can think of are: roles and responsibilities and how we set up the management
• Use Agile organizational design principles smartly in the interest of the organization, instead of the other way around
