Job description

Overview

We are looking to recruit an experienced enterprise solution architect who has practical experience of creating a consistent application architecture using the process of migrating from a mainly on premise architecture to a Cloud first architecture. The role aims to create a clearly focused enterprise architecture that aligns with the business's strategy and ambitions. The organisation currently lacks architectural maturity. It is likely that your role will involve both enterprise and solutions architecture elements as the enterprise architectural maturity and governance frameworks evolve.

In this position you will be working closely with key stakeholders in the business to gain a clear understanding of the As-Is architecture. We need a person who can work with key stakeholders across the business to create a Target Architecture that is aligned with the business strategy to enable the business to create the capacity and opportunity to achieve their business objectives.

Responsibilities

• Shape the development architecture to improve productivity and alignment with the needs of the business.
• As the architectural lead you will work with partners to ensure that their services are aligned with the business and IT strategy and integrate with in-house developments and core business architecture.
• Ensure the solutions are compatible with the overall strategy and roadmap, enabling the removal of duplication and silos of data to create a clearly focused application architecture that addresses the current and future needs of the business.
• Develop the architecture roadmap that is integrated with the business, data and infrastructure architectures to enable the business to have the capacity to achieve their planned expansion ambitions.

Opportunity

This is a key role within a growing organisation. You will join an organisation with an excellent reputation as an employer in a role where you can make a real difference and be a key part of creating an architecture to take the business forward.
