Leadership, architecture practice and mentoring: Support the growth and maturity of the architecture practice by mentoring Domain and Solution Architects and fostering a culture of collaboration, continuous learning, and architectural excellence. Promote best practices and knowledge sharing across architecture, security, operational, and business teams, while contributing to capability uplift and continuous improvement initiatives. Provide quality assurance and constructive feedback on architecture deliverables to ensure alignment with governance requirements, standards, and strategic objectives. Partner with the Head of Architecture to measure and demonstrate the business value delivered through architecture, leveraging metrics and insights to drive continual improvement and informed decision-making.
Stakeholder Engagement and Influence: Build and maintain strong, trusted relationships across technology and business teams to understand organisational priorities, influence decision-making, and ensure architecture outcomes are aligned with business needs. Effectively communicate complex architectural concepts and domain strategies to a broad range of stakeholders, translating technical detail into clear, actionable insights for both technical and non-technical audiences.
You are an experienced Enterprise Architect with a track record of shaping technology strategy and delivering architecture outcomes within large, complex organisations. You bring deep expertise across multiple architecture disciplines, such as business, information, solution, or technical architecture, and have a strong understanding of how technology can enable organisational transformation and business value.
You have experience developing and delivering enterprise architecture capabilities, ideally within a public sector or similarly complex environment, and are comfortable balancing strategic planning with practical delivery outcomes. Your background includes working within modern cloud environments, particularly AWS, and you have a strong appreciation for security, governance, integration, and operational requirements in enterprise-scale environments.
You are a trusted advisor who can partner effectively with senior stakeholders, technology leaders, delivery teams, and security professionals to solve complex problems and influence strategic decision-making. Experience supporting digital transformation initiatives, mission-critical services, complex integrations, and enterprise security capabilities will be highly regarded.
A degree in Business, Computer Science, Engineering, Information Technology, or a related discipline is desirable, although equivalent experience will also be considered. Industry certifications such as TOGAF, COBIT, AWS Certified Solutions Architect, CISSP, or similar architecture, cloud, and security credentials will be highly regarded.
To attract, retain and develop talented people, we provide genuine flexibility, a culture that supports people to be their best and on top of that - great opportunities for career development. We embrace diversity and inclusion and are proud our workforce reflects the community we serve.
