Do you want to own the vision and oversee overall data architecture for a brand-new ERP implementation?
If so, this Lead Data Architect position at a Midlands based Housing Association could be just the thing for you!
As Lead Data Architect, you will introduce a clearly defined overall data architecture, introducing best practices and leading the Data architecture team. You will act as a bridge between non-technical stakeholders and technical practitioners to deliver the group’s data architecture vision.
The key aim of your role will be to collaborate with business stakeholders, data scientists, analysts and IT teams to understand business needs and translate them into effective data architecture solutions. You’ll be the technical expert on group data architecture strategy and roadmap development, so there’s loads of scope for you to influence the direction of travel.

As Lead Data Architect you will:
- Translate business needs into effective data architecture solutions
- Be the technical and strategic lead for group data architecture strategy and roadmap development.
- Deliver architectural standards and principles, product-specific guidelines and usability design standards.
- Design and implement scalable data architectures to support business goals, including data warehousing, data lakes and real-time data processing.
- Lead the evaluation, selection and integration of new data technologies and tools to optimise data management processes.
- Provide leadership and guidance to the data architectural and engineering teams, ensuring they follow architectural best practices and design principles.
You’ll be an excellent fit as Solution Architect if you have:
- Proven experience as a Data Architect or in a similar technical leadership role for complex ERP solution deployments.
- Proven experience designing and implementing complex data systems like data warehouses and reporting and analytics solutions.
- Knowledge of TOGAF principles and have experience designing value-led architectures, translating logical architecture into physical implementations.
- Extensive experience on data warehouse.
- Experience of tailoring an architectural framework to meet specific organisational requirements.
You will be reporting into a Technical Director and partner with stakeholders across the entire business, so this is an amazing opportunity to set the data architectural foundations for this Housing Association to better serve their tenants.
A salary of £90,000 is on offer with a great benefits package. The position can be hybrid at the office in the Midlands.
