Solution Architect

As a Solution Architect, you'll partner with government, financial services, and private sector clients to design solutions that solve their most complex digital challenges. You'll bring together technical capabilities, user needs, and business objectives through critical thinking that breaks down problems and identifies practical approaches, considering non-functional requirements from the outset.

Working closely with delivery teams, you'll tackle diverse solution challenges across the full lifecycle - from conducting options analysis for major system modernisation programmes and helping clients understand complex problems, through to facilitating design sessions with multi-disciplinary teams, creating solutions that balance user needs with business constraints, and presenting your recommendations to architectural review boards and senior stakeholders.

Whether that's evaluating options for a government department's citizen portal, designing integration approaches for a bank's digital transformation, or guiding development teams through implementation decisions, you'll bring both solution design expertise and practical problem-solving skills to every situation.

• Your background designing and implementing enterprise-scale digital solutions means you can credibly advise clients on what architectural approaches work in practice, understanding the technical complexities and implications of different options.
• You'll bring systems thinking that connects architectural decisions across broader service and business contexts, combined with proven experience collaborating with diverse teams including user researchers, product managers, software engineers, and senior business stakeholders.
• Your approach balances strategic architectural thinking with hands-on implementation experience, taking a user-centred perspective that considers different viewpoints while meeting technical requirements and supporting business objectives.

As part of our central architecture team, you'll work alongside experienced Technology Principals and other Solution Architects who share your passion for solving complex challenges. This gives you a strong support network to collaborate with, learn from different perspectives, and tackle problems together.

We recognise that architecture is as much about continuous learning as it is about applying existing knowledge - you'll bring your proven experience while staying current with industry trends, modern practices, and emerging technologies. Your architectural expertise helps our clients deliver digital services that create meaningful outcomes for the people who use them
