Enterprise Architect
Location: Shepherd’s Bush (4 days onsite – non-negotiable)
Salary: £110,000 + £4,800 car allowance + benefits
Leading UK retailer and hospitality client now undergoing a significant business and technology transformation.
This is a pivotal hire within a newly evolving architecture function, offering the opportunity to shape enterprise-wide strategy during a large-scale cloud and operating model transformation.
As Enterprise Architect, you’ll operate as a senior individual contributor, working across domains with tech leads and engaging closely with C-suite stakeholders.
This is a highly visible, commercially focused role—not hands-on engineering but defining how technology enables the business to grow and compete.
Key Responsibilities
- Define and drive enterprise architecture strategy across a complex, multi-site retail environment
- Partner with CIO, COO, and senior stakeholders to align technology with business goals
- Work cross-functionally with domain tech leads to deliver scalable, future-proof solutions
- Shape supplier strategy and technology investment decisions
- Support large-scale cloud transformation initiatives (Microsoft ecosystem)
- Ensure architecture supports customer experience, operational efficiency, and revenue growth
What We’re Looking For
- Proven experience as an Enterprise Architect or Head of Architecture in a retail, hospitality, or multi-site environment
- Strong commercial acumen—able to understand and articulate business models, cost drivers, and customer behaviour
- Experience delivering or supporting large-scale cloud migration programmes (ideally Microsoft stack)
- Ability to operate cross-domain and influence at C-suite level
- Strong understanding of omnichannel retail and customer engagement strategies
- Self-starter mentality—comfortable in a fast-moving, evolving environment with minimal red tape
If you’re a commercially minded Enterprise Architect looking to make a tangible impact in a dynamic environment, this is a rare opportunity to step into a genuinely strategic role.
