Solutions Architect

Solution Architect – Digital Transformation | £75k–£107k + Car Allowance + Bonus | Hybrid – UK-Wide (London/Belfast/Manchester/Bristol Preferred)

Good architecture is reasoning applied to complexity. It aligns intent with delivery and clarity with execution.

We’re hiring experienced Solution Architects who combine technical insight with architectural discipline — people who can reason through complexity, design systems that make sense, and guide them into delivery.

You’ll work on transformation programmes that redefine how major organisations operate — spanning digital platforms, payments, ERP, and integration at scale. The work is varied, the standards are high, and the results are visible.

What You’ll Be Doing

*

Designing end-to-end solutions — from conceptual models to implementation design.

*

Producing clear, defensible architecture artefacts (HLDs, patterns, roadmaps) that guide delivery, not hinder it.

*

Leading RFPs and vendor assessments with technical and commercial judgement.

*

Partnering with engineering leads to ensure solutions are realised as intended.

*

Engaging confidently with stakeholders, translating technical reasoning into business value.

*

Applying structured architecture methods (TOGAF or equivalent) with pragmatism.

What You’ll Bring

*

Proven experience designing complex, multi-system digital or cloud environments.

*

Strong architectural judgement across business, application, data, and infrastructure domains.

*

Experience in retail, payments, ERP, or integration programmes (advantageous).

*

Coding literacy – not daily hands-on, but an understanding of how systems are built, integrated, and scaled.

*

Breadth across modern architecture stacks: cloud (Azure, AWS, GCP), APIs, integration, CI/CD, and security.

*

Consultancy or client-facing background – able to present options and trade-offs with authority.

*

SC clearance eligibility – UK resident for 5+ years, British Citizen, ILR, or equivalent.

The Details

*

Location: Hybrid – London or Belfast preferred. Some on-site collaboration required.

*

Salary: £75k–£107k base + car allowance + bonus.

*

Clearance: SC-eligible only.

Why It’s Worth Your Time

This is architecture for those who enjoy reasoning across systems — not just designing them. You’ll join teams where logic, clarity, and delivery matter in equal measure, and where what you build genuinely shapes how the organisation runs.
