Job Description:

Enterprise Architect - Banking Transformation, Cloud & AI

About the Role

We are undertaking a significant transformation of the Bank and are reimagining how we build a genuinely modern, intelligent banking platform for the future. This transformation spans Payments, FX, Data, Cloud, and AI, and will redefine both our technology landscape and future operating model.

This is a high-impact leadership role for an experienced Enterprise Architect who has successfully led large-scale banking transformations and can bridge the gap between strategic vision and practical execution. We're not seeking someone who governs architecture from the sidelines. We need a hands-on architectural leader who can shape the future direction of the Bank, challenge traditional thinking, and work closely with engineering and transformation teams to deliver tangible outcomes.

A key aspect of this role is helping to define how emerging technologies, including AI, agentic architectures, intelligent orchestration, and automation, can be leveraged to create the next generation of banking capabilities.

Key Responsibilities

• Define and own the Bank's end-to-end enterprise architecture strategy and roadmap.
• Establish architectural principles, standards, and target-state technology architectures across business and technology domains.
• Align technology investments with strategic business objectives and regulatory requirements.
• Proven experience leading enterprise architecture functions within banking or financial services.
• Demonstrated success delivering large-scale technology transformation programmes.
• Deep domain expertise in one or more of:
• Banking platforms
• Payments
• FX and Treasury systems
• High-volume transaction processing environments
• Strong understanding of both legacy and modern technology estates.
• Significant experience designing and implementing:
• Event-driven architectures
• Distributed systems
• Cloud-native solutions
• API ecosystems
• Experience working within highly regulated environments.
• Track record of influencing and partnering with executive-level stakeholders.
