We're looking for a senior Enterprise Architect to play a pivotal role in shaping how technology supports the business. You will operate at an enterprise level, owning architecture governance, portfolio visibility, and maturity uplift across SAP and non‐SAP platforms. Leading a team of solution architects, guiding standards and decisions, and providing assurance to senior leadership.
Responsibilities
- Operate within and influence formal governance forums (Architecture Boards, Design Authorities, CABs, Working Groups)
- Ensure programs and projects align to enterprise standards, policies, and reference architectures
- Provide architectural assurance to senior stakeholders including IT leadership, cyber, risk, and portfolio committees
Portfolio & Demand Visibility
- Maintain visibility of initiatives and demand across global portfolios
- Help rationalise overlap across multiple PMOs and regional delivery models
Landscape & Capability Maturity
- Own and mature:
- Business capability models
- Reference architectures
- Reduce application sprawl and complexity over time
- Lift maturity where knowledge currently sits informally across teams
SAP in the Enterprise Context
- SAP is a critical part of the landscape but not the whole picture
- Ensure SAP (including S/4HANA) is positioned appropriately within the broader enterprise architecture
- Use tools such as Signavio and modelling platforms to connect SAP and non‐SAP processes end‐to‐end
What We're Looking For
- Senior experience in Enterprise or Platform Architecture
- Exposure to SAP environments at enterprise scale
- Ability to engage credibly with architects, vendors, and delivery partners
- Understanding of:
- SAP S/4HANA transformation programs
- Manufacturing or asset‐heavy environments (supply chain, procurement, operations)
Nice to Have
- Experience in global organisations grown through acquisition
- Background in governance‐heavy or federated delivery models
- Cloud migration oversight (on‐prem to cloud)
How You'll Work
- Partner closely with senior IT leadership, cyber and risk teams, and portfolio governance
- Influence without direct authority in complex environments
- Work with global delivery partners and regional teams
- Operate calmly and effectively in ambiguity and complexity
