Scrum Master Internship

We are adding a Scrum Master Internship to our team to support a project with a major British infrastructure consultancy. This role centers on helping project teams maintain their pace and focus through simple, consistent organization. As a fully remote member of the team, you will learn how to apply agile methods to complex consulting environments, ensuring that work moves forward without unnecessary friction.

About the Role

The Scrum Master Internship exists to bridge the gap between high-level strategy and the actual daily work. At Olive Tree Consulting, we see many teams struggle not because they lack talent, but because their meetings and decision cycles have become cluttered. In this role, you will help our consultants and the client maintain a clear rhythm of work. You will learn to identify where projects are stalling and help the team return to a predictable, productive pattern. This is a chance to see how agile principles work in a professional services context while building your skills as a coordinator.

What You Will Do

  • Organize and hold daily check-ins to keep the team aligned on immediate tasks.
  • Write and distribute plain, clear notes that capture decisions and specific ownership.
  • Maintain the project backlog by ensuring every task is clearly defined and assigned.
  • Help the team prepare for weekly reviews and planning sessions.
  • Observe team interactions to spot where habits might be slowing down progress.
  • Update shared digital boards to reflect the current status of all work items.
  • Support the consultants in drafting simple documentation that replaces long, vague emails.
  • Track bottlenecks and report them to the project lead to ensure hurdles are removed quickly.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

About Olive Tree

Olive Tree Consulting Group is a focused advisory practice that helps leadership teams solve recurring management issues. We typically work on the space between strategy and daily execution. A team can have very capable people and still find that decisions keep reopening, priorities stall, or responsibility remains unclear. These are rarely personality problems: they are structural habits that have not kept up with the company growth.

We favor practical changes over large-scale transformation programs. Our work involves looking at how decisions are made, how meetings are run, and how ownership is recorded. We prefer useful written notes and clear ownership over polished presentations and vague alignment. Good advisory work should make things plainer and leave the team with a rhythm they can continue on their own. The firm is built on the principle that memory is not a management system. We help teams create the smallest possible written record to support their work so that important follow-up does not depend on who was in the room or who has the best memory. The goal is a quieter management pattern that makes the existing work easier to lead.
