Senior Enterprise Architecture Consultant
Join OneAdvanced
OneAdvanced serves customers who often have deeply embedded, on-premise or hosted systems that are integral to how they operate.
This is a senior, customer-facing architecture role that goes well beyond traditional pre-sales. You will act as the bridge between customer strategy, core business processes, technology design, and service delivery — working alongside sales teams to help organisations modernise their enterprise landscapes.
You will also play a meaningful role in how we approach this commercially, partnering with Revenue Enablement to shape the technical sales methodology we use across the business.
What You Will Do
Day to Day
- Work closely with customers to understand their current-state systems, data flows, and key processes, and map these to the capabilities of our workflows/applications and platform services
- Define integration and data flow strategies across internal and third-party systems, which may include ERP, HR, CRM, and risk and compliance platforms
- Advise on master data management approaches with a platform-first mindset, reducing architectural complexity and technical debt
- Assess customer data readiness for AI adoption — identifying quality, governance, and lineage gaps that need to be resolved before AI features can deliver meaningful value, and guide customers through a pragmatic path to readiness
- Help customers understand how AI and automation can be embedded within their workflows to improve decision-making and operational efficiency
- Engage substantively with responsible AI and governance questions, particularly with buyers in regulated environments such as health, care, and government — covering explainability, auditability, bias, and data subject rights
- Navigate sector-specific constraints — whether data residency and security requirements in health and care, procurement framework obligations in the public sector, or operational integration demands in transport, logistics, and manufacturing — and design solutions that address these without compromising platform simplicity
- Understand the outcomes the customer is trying to achieve, and architect the solution to move them from their existing tech stack to IQ, the intelligent system of work for their given sector
- Articulate how a move to OneAdvanced simplifies enterprise architecture — making the case clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
Beyond the Day to Day
- Contribute to the development of our technical sales methodology in partnership with Revenue Enablement and the broader Solutions team
- Subject matter expert for bid responses around architecture, security, and AI, working as part of a group of stakeholders to complete responses
- Partner closely with Sales, Product, and Services to ensure proposed solutions are executable, scalable, and aligned to customer outcomes
- Represent OneAdvanced at customer and industry events, sharing insight on data architecture, integration design, and digital transformation in enterprise software
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What You Will Have
- Please note, applicants must have the legal right to work in the UK at the time of application
Technical Depth
- Strong grounding in ERP architecture — data models, integration patterns, and business process dependencies. Comfortable with:
- Cloud platform design
- Multi-tenant SaaS
- Modern security models
Migration Literacy
- Experience assessing legacy, on-premise, or hosted environments. Ability to identify:
- Complexity
- Data integrity risk
- Dependency chains — and translate these into a coherent transition approach
Consultative Instinct
- Skilled at discovery — able to surface what is actually blocking a customer, not just what they say is blocking them
- Confident challenging assumptions
Commercial Awareness
- Understands the deal context. Capable of:
- Building a compelling total cost of ownership case
- Recognising when technical risk is genuine versus when it is customer anxiety in disguise
Methodology Thinking
- Desirable: has contributed to or built technical sales playbooks — including qualification criteria and discovery documentation
- Able to abstract patterns from deal experience and codify what good looks like
Cross-Functional Influence
- Comfortable working laterally without authority
- Influences sellers, enablement, and Solutions colleagues through credibility and clear reasoning rather than hierarchy
Applied AI Translation
- Ability to move a customer from:
- Vague curiosity (or vague fear) about AI to a concrete, credible adoption roadmap
- Understands how AI capabilities embed within existing workflows, not just what they are in theory
- Conversant in responsible AI, data readiness, and governance requirements, particularly in regulated environments
Sector Expertise
- Desirable: experience working in the sectors we serve, and an understanding of regulatory compliance our customers operate under
Beyond the Job Spec
- Stay current on platform evolution, competitor positioning, and sector trends
- Be methodical under pressure — don’t cut corners on rigour when a deal gets complex or timelines compress
- Be honest with customers — help them see where something is a genuine challenge, or assist in overcoming perceived challenges
- Understand that the biggest barrier to AI adoption in most organisations is not technology — but data quality, governance, and trust and you can have that conversation without losing the room
If you have spent your career sitting at the intersection of enterprise technology and the humans who rely on it — and you want a role where your architecture thinking directly shapes both customer outcomes and how a business sells — we would like to hear from you.
