Junior Scrum Master - #304292
Braun Management
Date: 1 day ago
City: Chicago, IL
Contract type: Full time
Braun Management works with executive teams to solve complex organizational problems that have become too internal to fix. We analyze organizational friction and clarify decision rights, delivering evidence-backed structure to client teams when their committee setups have stalled.
About the role
This entry-level coordination position exists to support a major corporate engagement with a global logistics firm headquartered in Chicago. As we help this partner resolve operational friction and clarify team accountability, you will coordinate our agile ceremonies and keep details updated with high precision. This is a permanent, full-time hybrid position, combining structured home-based work with regular in-person collaboration sessions to maintain alignment across our delivery teams.
What you will do
We believe that writing is thinking. Instead of endless unstructured calls, we rely on highly structured, written documents to make decisions and track our progress. Our hybrid model splits time between independent remote tasks and focused, in-person coordination sessions because we know that resolving organizational friction requires both deliberate thinking time and direct personal calibration.
