Technical Architect

Your role

As our Technical Architect, you will shape and govern the organisation’s technology landscape, ensuring that systems, platforms, and integrations are secure, scalable, and aligned with long‑term strategic goals. Operating at the intersection of strategy and delivery, you will set technical direction, provide architectural leadership, and translate complex requirements into robust, future‑ready solutions.

You will work hands‑on across cloud engineering, development, integrations, and DevOps, driving best practice and empowering teams through consistent design standards, automation, and reusable delivery patterns. Your work will underpin the Institute’s digital transformation journey, enabling operational efficiency, business agility, and meaningful member and customer experiences.

Partnering closely with the Solution Architect, you will lead architecture reviews, embed governance and security principles, and support Dynamics 365, NAV, and CRM Administrators through advanced technical escalation. You will also champion innovation—horizon scanning emerging technologies, shaping technical roadmaps, and promoting continuous improvement across the digital function.

Key attributes

• You take a strategic view of technology while remaining highly hands‑on, comfortable moving between architectural design and practical engineering delivery.
• You enjoy collaborating with cross‑functional teams and act as a trusted technical advisor who brings clarity and direction to complex challenges.
• You naturally champion high standards, from coding quality to cloud governance, and take pride in creating solutions that are secure, resilient, and scalable.

• You communicate clearly and confidently, helping both technical and non‑technical colleagues understand the rationale behind architectural decisions.
