We are recruiting for a major UK organisation delivering essential infrastructure services and investing in the continued modernisation of its enterprise technology estate.
You will work across a varied environment encompassing operational platforms, work management systems, ERP, middleware, cloud services, business intelligence and data warehousing. You will help project teams understand the complete end-to-end solution, reduce delivery risk and make informed architectural decisions.

- Translate business requirements into clear, deliverable solution architectures
- Produce high-level designs, logical architecture models and technical decision records
- Design secure, scalable, resilient and cost-effective technology solutions
- Define application interactions, integrations, APIs, data flows and dependencies
- Assess current architecture and identify risks, gaps and opportunities for simplification
- Evaluate solution options and communicate the associated costs, benefits and trade-offs
- Guide delivery teams through design and implementation challenges
- Ensure proposed solutions comply with enterprise architecture and security standards
- Work alongside Enterprise Architects, Platform Architects and business stakeholders
- Promote reuse of existing capabilities, common services and proven patterns
- Present designs through architecture governance and review forums
- Contribute to future-state architecture and wider technology improvement initiatives
