11247SR1£90k – 110k per year + + £7k car allowance + benefits Senior Architect – API Hybrid This is a career-defining role for an architect who wants to make a real impact. You’ll join an innovative architecture team at the forefront of AI adoption, platform modernisation, and API-led transformation within the insurance industry. As Senior Architect, you’ll provide technical leadership on complex, business-critical systems — guiding the design and delivery of scalable, secure, and future-ready solutions. Your expertise will be key to driving a shift towards services-based architectures, automation through APIs, and asynchronous, event-driven integration models. What You’ll Do Shape and execute architectural strategies and roadmaps aligned to a major enterprise transformation programme. Champion an API-first design approach, guiding the development and governance of services-based architectures and reusable integration patterns. Define and evolve event-driven architectures and messaging strategies to power automation and connectivity across the enterprise. Provide technical leadership for large-scale, complex applications — from conceptual design to performance optimisation. Influence strategic decisions across cloud-native, SaaS, and on-premises environments. Collaborate with senior stakeholders, delivery teams, and other architects to ensure alignment with business objectives. Support proof-of-concepts, vendor evaluations, and the introduction of new technologies into the architecture landscape. What We’re Looking For Extensive experience in enterprise and solution architecture, ideally within large-scale, regulated environments. Proven track record designing API-centric solutions (REST, SOAP, GraphQL) and implementing event-driven patterns. Strong understanding of integration architectures, microservices, and services-based delivery models. Solid knowledge of Java, .NET, SQL, and SOA environments, plus experience with modern frameworks (Spring, Hibernate, etc.). Hands-on experience with middleware technologies (WebSphere, JBoss, Datapower) and cloud-native platforms. Familiarity with SaaS platforms and asynchronous messaging solutions. Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence at all levels. Insurance or financial services experience (including London Market) is a plus. Why Join? Shape the architectural direction of a major digital transformation programme. Work with the latest AI, automation, and API technologies in a global business. Collaborate with a forward-thinking, supportive architecture community. Enjoy a flexible hybrid working model and a comprehensive rewards package. Senior Architect – API Due to the volume of applications received for positions, it will not be possible to respond to all applications and only applicants who are considered suitable for interview will be contacted.  Proactive Appointments Limited operates as an employment agency and employment business and is an equal opportunities organisation
