The Role
We're looking for an experienced Enterprise Architect to lead the technical direction and delivery of large-scale Digital Experience and Digital Marketing transformation programmes for global enterprise organisations.
This is a senior, client-facing position combining enterprise architecture, technical consultancy and delivery leadership. You'll work with business and technology stakeholders to understand complex requirements, develop architectural strategies and translate business objectives into scalable technology solutions.
The role will involve working across a broad range of enterprise MarTech platforms, with a particular emphasis on the Adobe Experience Cloud ecosystem. You'll need to understand how different technologies work together across customer data, analytics, marketing automation, content management, personalisation and digital commerce.
Alongside the architectural responsibilities, you'll take ownership of technical delivery, working with geographically distributed teams, managing technical dependencies and ensuring solutions are delivered in line with agreed scope, timelines and business objectives.
What You'll Be Doing

- Develop end-to-end architecture strategies covering customer data, marketing automation, personalisation, content management and digital commerce
- Define technical approaches, integration patterns and platform architectures across complex enterprise technology environments
- Work across APIs, cloud infrastructure, structured and unstructured data, security and data ingress/egress
- Lead technical discovery, architecture workshops and stakeholder presentations, communicating recommendations to both technical and non-technical audiences
- Define project scope, delivery estimates, resource requirements and implementation timelines
- Work closely with delivery teams to ensure technical solutions align with customer requirements, licensing considerations and wider business objectives
- Identify delivery risks and technical challenges, developing remediation plans to keep programmes on track
- Coordinate cross-functional and multi-region teams, providing architectural direction and ensuring consistency across delivery
- Provide technical oversight throughout implementation, ensuring solutions meet agreed architectural standards and quality expectations
- Identify opportunities to introduce emerging technologies, including Generative AI and Agentic AI, to improve digital experiences and business processes
What We're Looking For
We're looking for someone with a strong enterprise consulting background who can operate at both a strategic and technical level.
You'll ideally have:

- Strong understanding of enterprise MarTech ecosystems and how different platforms integrate to support end-to-end customer experiences
- Experience translating complex business requirements into technical architecture and delivery strategies
- Demonstrable experience working with enterprise platforms such as Adobe, Salesforce, Oracle or Microsoft
- Strong understanding of REST APIs, cloud storage, enterprise integrations, structured and unstructured data, and security
- Experience defining project scope, technical estimates, resource allocation and delivery plans
- Proven ability to lead cross-functional, geographically distributed technical teams
- Experience managing technical dependencies, resolving delivery challenges and keeping complex programmes aligned with scope, budget and timelines
- Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to engage technical teams, marketing leaders and C-suite stakeholders
- Willingness to travel internationally when required, potentially up to 20%
