Senior architecture leadership role within a large global technology organisation undergoing major transformation.

This is not a traditional Enterprise Architecture/governance role.

We need someone who has directly led and transformed a Solution/Platform Architecture function and can bring infrastructure, cloud, applications, integration, data and workplace architecture together into coherent enterprise solutions.

Key experience:

• Led a sizeable Solution/Platform Architecture team or function.

• Strong infrastructure, cloud and platform architecture background.

• Credible applications/integration architecture breadth.

• Built or matured an architecture capability and retained ownership.

• Cloud transformation and modernisation.

• Agile/product-led delivery.

• Automation and modern engineering practices.

• Architecture standards/design authority without creating delivery bureaucracy.

• Measurable architecture outcomes around cost, resilience, simplification or delivery.
