- Simplify legacy architecture, reduce complexity and support technology modernisation.
- Translate business requirements into clear technical designs and actionable delivery plans.
- Work directly with senior stakeholders to balance technical decisions against cost, risk and business value.

- Strong retail and/or eCommerce experience is essential, ideally within a complex omnichannel environment.
- Broad architecture experience across customer-facing digital platforms and back-office enterprise systems.
- Strong understanding of cloud technologies, API architecture, integration and modern software engineering.
- Proven ability to take solutions from initial discovery and design through to implementation and go-live.
- A genuinely hands-on, commercially minded architect who can investigate technical challenges and make decisions independently.
- Someone who thrives in a lean, fast-moving environment, communicates clearly and takes ownership.
