Shape the Enterprise Data Landscape for a National Organisation
We’re partnering with a major UK infrastructure and services business undergoing significant digital and data transformation. With millions of customers and complex operational environments, data is central to how they drive efficiency, safety and customer experience.
This is a rare opportunity to own and define the enterprise-wide data architecture for a truly large-scale organisation, shaping how data is governed, structured and leveraged for years to come.
The Opportunity
As the Enterprise Data Architect, you’ll be the strategic lead for data architecture across the business — setting vision, standards and direction, while still remaining hands-on with modelling and solution design.
You’ll work at the intersection of technology, business and engineering, ensuring that data is high-quality, trusted, secure and accessible across the enterprise. Your influence will directly support major transformation programmes and the organisation’s journey towards becoming fully data-driven.
This is the ideal role for someone who wants to build and own an enterprise data function with real breadth, visibility and impact.
Key Responsibilities
- Define and deliver the Enterprise Data Strategy and Roadmap, aligned to business goals
- Own and evolve the Enterprise Data Model, driving consistency and standardisation
- Design modern, scalable architectures including data lakes, warehouses, real-time and streaming platforms
- Lead frameworks for data governance, MDM, metadata, lineage, quality, security and retention
- Chair enterprise data forums, ensuring alignment across programmes and technology teams
- Provide architectural leadership, assurance and direction across major transformation initiatives
- Act as the organisation’s senior data authority, influencing decision-makers and shaping best practice
About You
You’ll thrive here if you enjoy both strategy and hands-on architecture and want to drive real enterprise change.
We’re looking for someone with:
- Significant experience as an Enterprise Data Architect in a complex or regulated environment
Why Apply?
- Competitive salary + bonus + car allowance
- Highly attractive pension contributions
- Hybrid and flexible working
- Private healthcare
- 32+ days annual leave including public holidays
- Lifestyle, wellbeing and volunteering benefits
- You’ll join an organisation that is genuinely investing in data, with leadership support and the scale to do meaningful, enterprise-level architectural work.
Our Commitment
We’re committed to building an inclusive, diverse and supportive technology community. If you’re excited by the impact you could make — even if you don’t meet every requirement — we encourage you to apply.
