The Role
A role like this does not come around very often, if at all! This is an opportunity to take ownership of the strategy and delivery, of the enterprise data architecture tooling and processes.
You will need to bring the following to the table:
- ExtensiveEnterprise Data Architecture or Enterprise Information Architectureexperience within banking. This means: You’ve been the enterprise level data architect and not a technology led or solution architect.
- You are comfortable in engaging and managing stakeholders to board level…
- …and equally comfortable working with solution architects, technical designers etc
- Experience and background in delivery enterprise scale data architecture the tooling around it and the best practice in terms of standards and processes.
- You'll be driving change and challenging with WHY?Enterprise Data Architecturehere starts with a business first approach.
- Data Architecture– This role is not a solution architect or technical architecture position, it is an enterprise architecture role with a data specialism and as such you should have experience or certification in delivering to best practice frameworks such as TOGAF.
This is literally and quite possibly a once in a lifetime opportunity for someone who wants to get their name to a huge transformation as this organisation move from chaos to order and build a world class enterprise data architecture including a conceptual data model and architecture that spans the entire business. Join a forward thinking collaborative organisation at the beginning of significant change. The future is certainly interesting here as well and I would love to explain more about the impact you will have as the Enterprise Data Architect.
n.b. Technology is not mentioned in this advert – that is because it is an Enterprise Architecture role with data specialism. However, from a technology perspective the organisation is moving from a legacy 'spaghetti' estate primarily to Azure, leveraging other data technology such as Collibra for data quality and governance.
