Solutions Architect - Windows 11 & Workplace Technology

We’re seeking an experienced Solutions Architect to join a large-scale workplace technology transformation program, supporting the delivery of an enterprise-wide Windows 11 upgrade and engineering workstation modernisation initiative.

This is a high-impact role within a complex, critical infrastructure environment where you’ll work alongside project teams, vendors, cyber security specialists, engineering stakeholders and operational teams to deliver successful technology outcomes.

If you’ve delivered large-scale endpoint, workplace technology, EUC or Windows transformation programs and enjoy operating in environments where architecture, governance and delivery intersect, we’d like to hear from you.
  
The Opportunity
You’ll play a key role in shaping and assuring vendor-led delivery across:

• Enterprise-wide Windows 11 transformation
• Engineering and specialist workstation modernisation
• Endpoint management, identity and security initiatives
• Technology rollout, transition and operational readiness activities

  
This is not a hands-on engineering role and it’s not a pure enterprise architecture position.
  
Instead, you’ll provide architectural leadership, technical assurance and design governance, ensuring solutions are secure, supportable, fit for purpose and aligned to business requirements.
  
This engagement is initially 6-7 months, covering a key secondment within the program, with strong potential for extension.
  
Key Responsibilities

• Provide architectural oversight across endpoint and workstation solutions
• Review, challenge and approve vendor-led designs and technical decisions
• Work closely with project teams, suppliers and stakeholders to resolve technical risks and delivery challenges
• Ensure solutions align with security, operational and support requirements
• Support deployment, rollout and transition planning activities
• Drive alignment across infrastructure, cyber security, engineering and operational teams
• Produce architecture artefacts and documentation to support delivery and ongoing BAU ownership
• Act as a trusted technical advisor across multiple workstreams and stakeholder groups

What We’re Looking For
You will bring proven experience as a:

• Solutions Architect
• Infrastructure Architect
• Workplace Technology Architect
• End User Computing (EUC) Architect

Along with:

• Strong experience delivering Windows endpoint and workplace technology programs
• Experience with Windows 11, SOE, EUC or Modern Workplace transformation initiatives
• Proven ability to govern and assure vendor-led delivery
• Strong stakeholder engagement and influencing skills
• Experience reviewing and approving complex technical designs
• The ability to balance architecture, risk and delivery outcomes in fast-moving environments
• Experience working alongside project managers, vendors, cyber security and operational teams

Candidates who have only worked at a conceptual enterprise architecture level, or who lack vendor-facing delivery experience, are unlikely to be a suitable fit.
  
Technical Experience
Experience in the following areas will be highly regarded:

• Windows enterprise architecture
• Endpoint lifecycle management
• SOE design and deployment models
• Microsoft Intune / Endpoint Management
• Identity and access management
• Endpoint security and compliance
• Application compatibility and remediation
• Engineering or specialist workstation environments
• Vendor-led transformation programs
• Multi-supplier delivery environments

Industry Experience
Experience within one or more of the following sectors will be highly regarded:

• Utilities
• Energy
• Mining
• Operational Technology (OT)
• Critical Infrastructure
• Industrial or asset-intensive organisations

Candidates who understand the unique operational, security and compliance requirements of these environments will be particularly well suited to the role.
  
Personal Attributes
We’re looking for someone who is:

• Pragmatic and delivery-focused
• Comfortable challenging vendors and stakeholders when required
• Decisive and solutions-oriented
• Calm under pressure
• A strong communicator who can engage with both technical and non-technical audiences
• Outcome-focused and commercially aware
• Able to balance technical excellence with delivery realities

Why Apply?

• Major Windows 11 and workplace technology transformation program
• High-profile initiative with strong stakeholder visibility
• Complex technical and operational environment
• Opportunity to work closely with cyber security, engineering and operational technology teams
• Initial 6-7 month engagement with strong extension potential
• Significant opportunity to influence the successful delivery of a critical business transformation
