You will have the opportunity to build the agile practice from the ground up and then run it.As the team's Scrum Master, process architect, and cross-functional connector, you will design the workflows, configure the tooling, establish the ceremonies, and create the cultural habits that transform how our marketing team operates. Once built, you will own and continuously improve that system — ensuring our marketing function operates with the speed, transparency, and adaptability that today's AI-driven compliance market demands.This role will report to the Chief Marketing Officer and is designed for someone who is energized by a blank page, comfortable with ambiguity in the build phase, and disciplined enough to hold the system accountable once it is running.What You'll DoBuild the Agile System, Then Run ItAssess the current state of marketing operations and design a Scrumban framework tailored to Ncontracts' team

reviews, and retrospectives, keeping the team focused and unblocked.Manage and maintain the marketing backlog, ensuring stories and briefs are well-defined, prioritized, and sized before each weekly intake meeting.Track sprint velocity, capacity, cycle time, and throughput, using data to continuously improve team performance.Implement pre-commitment mapping, providing advance notification and lead time to stakeholders, to surface cross-team dependencies before they become sprint blockers.Serve as the primary liaison between Marketing and stakeholders in Sales, Product, Legal, and Compliance, proactively surfacing dependencies and clearing blockers before they impact sprint commitments.Build and maintain real-time visibility dashboards that align every team member with shared enterprise outcomes and pipeline KPIs.AI and Workflow InnovationLead the marketing team's adoption of AI tools across brief writing, content production, campaign operations, and workflow automation — evaluating new tools quickly and building team habits around the ones that deliver.Design and maintain automated approval workflows that run creative and brand reviews in parallel while preserving sequential compliance sign-off.Identify opportunities for multi-step workflow automation as the team's AI maturity grows, advancing from task-level tools toward more connected, autonomous processes
