You're the Perfect Fit If You Have:

• Minimum 10 years of work experience; at least 8 years plus in an architecture advisory or establishment services role.
• Proven and relevant past consulting experience; alternatively global technology services firm or seasoned industry position focused on Enterprise Architecture (and demonstration of intrinsic consulting skills).
