The opportunity

At Valtech, you’ll find an environment designed for continuous learning, meaningful impact, and professional growth. Whether you’re pioneering new digital solutions, challenging conventional thinking or building the next generation of customer experiences, your work will help transform industries.

The Role:

You’ll work alongside multidisciplinary teams of strategists, architects, engineers, analysts, designers and consultants, helping enterprise organisations modernise business operations through low-code technology, workflow automation and intelligent digital solutions.

Our capability spans the full transformation lifecycle; from discovery and solution design through to implementation, optimisation and continuous improvement. We work across sectors including financial services, retail, healthcare, automotive, media and the public sector, delivering enterprise platforms that simplify complex business processes and create measurable business value.

As a Senior Appian Consultant, you’ll play a key role in designing and delivering scalable Appian solutions that improve operational efficiency, automate manual processes and enable organisations to respond faster to changing business needs.

This is a hands‑on consulting role requiring strong technical expertise, client engagement skills and the ability to translate business requirements into robust enterprise applications.

Role Responsibilities:

You are a hands‑on Appian specialist who enjoys solving complex business challenges through modern low-code technology. You combine strong technical capability with a consulting mindset and enjoy working closely with clients to understand problems before designing scalable solutions.

You will lead the design, configuration and development of enterprise Appian applications, ensuring solutions are secure, maintainable and aligned to Appian best practices. You’ll contribute throughout the delivery lifecycle, from technical design and sprint planning through to testing, deployment and production support.

Working collaboratively with architects, product managers, business analysts and engineering teams, you’ll help shape technical solutions that balance business requirements with implementation practicality.

You’ll be comfortable leading technical discussions with clients, providing guidance on solution design, integration approaches and delivery best practice while mentoring junior developers and helping elevate engineering quality across delivery teams.

You’ll actively contribute to Agile delivery ceremonies, supporting backlog refinement, estimation, sprint demonstrations and continuous improvement initiatives. You will also play an important role in maintaining delivery quality through technical reviews, unit testing, deployment management and performance optimisation.

As technology continues to evolve, you’ll remain curious and committed to continuous learning; embracing new Appian capabilities and identifying opportunities to improve delivery through automation, reusable components and emerging AI capabilities.

Must have Qualifications:

• Proven experience delivering enterprise-scale Appian solutions within complex client


• Strong experience developing Appian applications using Records, Record Types, Relationships, SAIL Interfaces, Process Models, Sites, Reports and CDTs, with the ability to manage a single application through its full lifecycle.


• Strong understanding of relational databases, SQL, data modelling and enterprise data structures.


• Comfortable working day-to-day within blended teams of client staff and third-party vendors, building good working relationships and adapting to the client’s tools, processes and team culture.


• Experience designing and implementing integrations using Connected Systems, Web APIs and external services, including REST and SOAP-based integration patterns, exercising sound judgement on when to use built-in objects, expressions, rules and plug-ins versus custom development.


• Experience identifying performance bottlenecks, applying caching strategies, and using the Appian Health Check report and process monitoring tab to maintain production stability within an application.


• Experience implementing Appian’s security model and managing Appian deployments, release pipelines, and troubleshooting production issues within a single application or workstream.


• Experience producing technical design documentation, unit testing and delivering high‑quality solutions against defined acceptance criteria.


• Strong understanding of Appian development best practices and enterprise application design principles.


• Experience working within Agile Scrum delivery teams, including sprint planning, refinement, estimation and demonstrations.


• Excellent communication skills with experience working directly with business stakeholders, Product Owners and technical teams.


• A proactive mindset with a passion for continuous learning and emerging Appian capabilities.
