- Map processes, customer journeys, capabilities, stakeholders and dependencies using agreed methods and standard notation.
- Gather, structure and analyse qualitative and quantitative information, including incomplete evidence, to identify pain points, duplication, gaps and improvement opportunities and help develop early ideas into practical options, requirements, features and next steps, highlighting assumptions, risks, trade-offs and dependencies.
- Apply established business architecture principles, including capability mapping, value streams, customer journeys and target operating models.
- Support impact assessments across people, process, technology, data and controls, identifying implications for customers, colleagues and the organisation. Support and, where appropriate, facilitate discovery sessions; communicate findings through clear visualisations, structured artefacts and concise storytelling.
- Collaborate with business, technology, change, operations and customer-experience teams to test assumptions and build a shared understanding of the problem and potential options.
- Maintain architecture artefacts, traceability and agreed standards using relevant tools, ensuring outputs are accurate, current and reusable.
- Work iteratively, seek feedback early and adapt outputs as understanding develops, contributing ideas and learning to the wider business architecture practice.
To be successful you will:
- Experience in business architecture, business analysis, process improvement, transformation or a related discipline, with practical experience of structured discovery and analysis.
- An awareness of key business architecture concepts, including capabilities, value streams, customer journeys and target operating models and the ability to use interviews, workshops, observation, document analysis and process or journey mapping to understand a current state.
- Good analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to organize incomplete information, identify themes and dependencies, and draw evidence-based conclusions.
- The ability to help develop practical options from early ideas and consider impacts across people, process, technology, data and controls.
- Clear communication and facilitation skills, with the ability to present findings through accessible visualisations and concise written or verbal narratives.
- A collaborative approach and the confidence to work with colleagues across business, technology, change, operations and customer experience, asking questions and constructively challenging assumptions.
- Curiosity, systems thinking and commercial awareness, with a willingness to learn, seek feedback and adapt as understanding develops. An interest in building knowledge of the organisation, its customers, products, processes and regulatory environment.
- Experience of business architecture or modelling tools and standard notation would be advantageous, as would familiarity with Agile, Design Thinking or Lean methods.
