At Hapag-Lloyd, we’re not just doing Agile—we’re building a Lean and Agile , high-performing IT organization that delivers real value, fast. We’ve got the basics in place. Now we’re scaling what works—and cutting what doesn’t. That’s where you come in. We’re looking for a Lean-Agile Coach who can roll up their sleeves and work hands-on with IT and product teams, while also coaching leaders to think differently. If you're passionate about flow, focus, and continuous improvement, and know how to apply LEAN thinking in Agile software delivery, this is your stage. Why this role? - Global exposure—work with teams across Gdansk, Hamburg, and Chennai - Real transformation—not just Agile compliance - Hybrid work, flexible mindset, and a culture that values impact over fluff

  • Use tools like Value Stream Mapping, A3 problem solving, Kaizen, and Flow Metrics to help teams and clusters spot bottlenecks and fix them
  • Coach People and Product Leaders on working smarter
  • Teach teams to track and act on meaningful metrics—think Cycle Time, Throughput, Flow Efficiency—not just burn-downs
  • Drive continuous improvement from the ground up, and help leaders clear the way
Qualifications
  • You’ve spent 8+ years in real Agile software delivery, not just facilitating events
  • You have serious LEAN transformation experience, especially in IT, software, or digital
