Are you a highly skilled Business Architect with experience of working effectively with others in the delivery of large-scale business change?

If so, then this could be the role for you.

We are seeking an experienced Business Architect to join the Programme Team.

You will work collaboratively with colleagues and key stakeholders within the Programme Team, Student Education Service and across the wider university and will ensure alignment of process and system designs with design principles and broader university strategies.  

To be successful you will need to have the skills, experience and confidence to make an immediate impact and thrive on working in a complex environment.
