Akkodis are currently working in partnership with a leading transformation consultancy that helps organisations solve complex challenges and deliver meaningful digital change.

We are looking for a Digital Solution Architect to join a dynamic Digital Architecture team. If you enjoy combining technical depth with business insight - and want to influence how digital products and services are designed and delivered - this role could be for you.

The role

As a Solution Architect, you will play a key role in designing and shaping end-to-end digital solutions for a wide range of clients. You will work as part of agile, product-focused teams, helping define architectures that support innovative services, new digital products and large-scale technology transformation.

You will operate across the full life cycle - from early concept and experimentation through to delivery - providing both strategic direction and hands-on technical leadership.

What you'll be doing

  • Designing end-to-end digital solutions aligned to business goals and user needs
  • Defining architectural approaches, standards and patterns and ensuring consistent application
  • Working closely with clients in agile, customer-centric delivery teams
  • Providing technical leadership and guidance to scrum teams and product designers
  • Building and validating ideas through prototypes, MVPs, spikes and pilots
  • Assessing technical feasibility and translating complex ideas into practical solutions
  • Collaborating with UX designers, service designers and developers to enable rapid, iterative delivery

You will also have opportunities to:

  • Support business development activities such as proposals, bids and client pitches
  • Contribute to internal initiatives, propositions, campaigns and thought leadership
  • Develop your own skills through training, certifications and learning programmes

What we're looking for
  • We are seeking someone who can connect technology decisions to tangible business outcomes.
  • Experience delivering digital solutions on one or more cloud platforms (AWS, Azure or GCP)
  • Strong knowledge of cloud-native architectures, including PaaS, SaaS, serverless and microservices
  • Confidence working in agile environments, balancing speed, governance and quality
  • Hands-on experience building and testing applications or prototypes
  • Ability to communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • Experience designing solutions that are cost-effective, scalable and user-centred
  • Awareness of current and emerging technology trends, with experience across DevOps and waterfall delivery
  • Desire to develop others through mentoring, coaching or line management
  • Eligible for security clearance.

Why join?
  • You will work in multi-disciplinary teams alongside experienced architects, consultants and business specialists, helping clients achieve measurable outcomes through technology.
  • Opportunities to work on high-impact digital transformation programmes
  • A collaborative culture that values curiosity, innovation and professional growth
  • Clear investment in career development and progression
  • Hybrid and flexible working to support work-life balance
  • A strong focus on wellbeing, inclusion and employee support
