Summary
How will you make change happen? As a Supply Chain Solution Architect, you will drive transformational change across a major retail organisation by defining strategic outcomes and end-to-end roadmaps that align product direction with business goals.

- Create high-level and detailed solution designs that connect business processes, applications, data, and integration requirements
- Work closely with engineering and delivery teams to ensure solutions are scalable, secure, supportable, and aligned to architecture standards
- Evaluate solution options across buy, build, and integrate scenarios, clearly articulating trade-offs, assumptions, and business value
- Support technical governance, design assurance, and decision-making throughout discovery, design, build, test, and implementation phases
