Job Description

The Role: Data Architect

Location: Remote / Birmingham
Salary: Up to £85,000 + bonus + generous pension

VIQU have partnered with a leading organisation undergoing a large scale brownfield transformation, replacing an existing SAP platform with a modern, scalable solution (with technologies yet to be decided).

This role would suit a pragmatic Data Architect who has previously designed and built a greenfield or brownfield platform with a high level of autonomy. The organisation is currently relatively immature from a data architecture perspective, so the ideal candidate must be comfortable operating with ambiguity and shaping direction. Experience within a highly regulated industry would be advantageous.

Key Responsibilities of the Data Architect:

  • Own and shape the enterprise data architecture vision, strategy and maturity roadmap.
  • Design the end-to-end data platform, including data models, data lakes, warehouses and integrations.
  • Define data standards and establish a robust data governance framework, developing data quality and security standards in line with regulatory requirements.
  • Ensure readiness for AI/ML integration.
  • Evaluate emerging tools, cloud platforms and analytics technologies.
  • Work with external partners to establish a “single version of the truth” across the industry and enable secure data sharing.

Requirements

  • Proven experience as a Data Architect, having previously shaped or matured an organisation's data landscape.
  • Experience within a regulated industry (e.g. utilities, finance, defence). Energy/utilities experience (gas, water, power, electricity) would be highly desirable.
  • Broad knowledge of modern data platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP, Snowflake, Databricks).
  • Experience working within SAP environments/modules (e.g. S/4 HANA, RISE) would be advantageous.
  • Strong data modelling expertise.
  • Comfortable working through ambiguity and able to communicate architectural decisions at a senior level.
