Job description

About the job you’re considering

Capgemini is seeking a Solution Architect with deep telecoms experience to lead the design and delivery of secure, scalable, and high-performance network and IT solutions. This is a hands-on, client-facing role where you’ll shape technical direction, ensure architectural integrity, and drive value across complex programmes. You’ll work across the full delivery lifecycle—from early engagement and requirements definition through to assurance, integration, and operational handover—partnering with stakeholders across Capgemini, client organisations, and third-party suppliers.

This is an opportunity to influence strategic outcomes, contribute to national-scale programmes, and work at the intersection of technology, compliance, and innovation.

Hybrid working: The places that you work from day to day will vary according to your role, your needs, and those of the business; it will be a blend of Company offices, client sites, and your home; noting that you will be unable to work at home 100% of the time.

If you are successfully offered this position, you will go through a series of pre-employment checks, including: identity, nationality (single or dual) or immigration status, employment history going back 3 continuous years, and unspent criminal record check (known as Disclosure and Barring Service)
