This role is critical to the success of complex, high-volume integration programmes, where external platform constraints (e.g. Oracle) must not only be designed and assured but strategically aligned and operationalised within enterprise-owned integration environments.

The Integration Solution Architect is responsible for defining and shaping the integration architecture strategy, while ensuring the design, delivery, and assurance of robust, scalable integration solutions across complex enterprise landscapes. The role plays a pivotal part in enabling seamless data and process flows between core platforms (e.g. ERP, ServiceNow, Amazon Connect, and integration hubs), ensuring alignment with business objectives, security requirements, and operational outcomes.

Operating at both a strategic and hands-on delivery level, the architect will work closely with business stakeholders, technical teams, and third-party partners to define integration direction, make and assure technical design decisions, and provide active guidance through build, test, deployment readiness, and transition to BAU. The role ensures that integration approaches not only meet immediate programme needs but are sustainable, reusable, implementable, and aligned to long-term enterprise architecture principles, while maintaining compliance with relevant standards and best practices.
