Here at Beyond Essential Systems (BES) we make awesome technology and put it to good use in the world. Our aim is to improve decision making in low resource settings by providing meaningful data that results in well informed decisions, and better outcomes for individuals. Our services and products have impact across health, education, supply chain and disaster management, and we are proud to be able to provide innovative and collaborative solutions, while working closely with local partners in the Asia / Pacific region.
As a Scrum Master in the BES team, you’ll be working on projects that directly impact our overall mission. Our software suite includes Tupaia and Tamanu and we also implement and support mSupply and DHIS2 systems, all of which you’ll contribute to.

Ideally, you’ll have previous experience as a Scrum Master but there’ll be plenty of overlap with our outgoing Scrum Master so it’s also a good opportunity to learn the ropes if you are looking to transition across.
Existing skills in coaching, project management, or people management would be an advantage, as would experience in the fields of software/technology, healthcare, or international development.

Right now, we're working remotely until restrictions ease but the office is on Nicholson St in Brunswick East - close to Lygon Street with its Cafés, restaurants and bars - and there is a big park just behind our building.
