Bristol, Bristol, United Kingdom TN United Kingdom Full time

Solution Architect – National Salary Circa £45,000.

At Aviva, we are looking to transform the way in which we engage with our customers, and we are looking for experienced software solution architects to work with IT projects to deliver that transformation.

This is a great job for someone who can build end-to-end designs that are fit for purpose from a functional, non-functional, service, and security point of view. Primarily application and integration focused, but with knowledge of the underlying technical infrastructure that supports the solutions.

The post holder will be a key part of a wider global architecture practice and will be passionate about driving, improving, and promoting the process and delivery of architecture (and its value) across the organisation.

The current team are located across our offices in the UK, and we operate a flexible working model, coming into one of our offices regularly (on average 2.5 days per week).

A bit about the job:
  1. Crafting solutions across Aviva's IT applications estate, defining the overall solution architecture and system integrations that meet Aviva's technology standards and our ambitions for availability, security, resilience, and performance.
  2. Providing coaching, mentoring, and training to less experienced Solution Architects as required.
  3. Providing leadership on key designs to ensure the long-term IT Roadmaps are followed as well as short-term project needs.
  4. Performing early triage and shaping of IT initiatives to support investment decisions and initial delivery planning.
  5. Ensuring design artefacts are produced to support service, security, architecture, and engineering.
Skills and experience we're looking for:
  1. Passionate about technology and how to exploit it for the benefit of our customers.
  2. Excellent design and architecture skills and experience of agile delivery methods.
  3. Experience in cloud technologies is desirable (esp. Amazon Web Services).
  4. Financial acumen to support the development of business cases and to inform key design decisions.
  5. Deep technical experience - this may be broad with the ability to apply it across a variety of customer and business scenarios, or strong domain specialisms to maximise the benefits of technology in key areas.
What you'll get for this role:
  1. National Salary Circa £45,000 (depending on location, skills, experience, and qualifications).
  2. Bonus opportunity - 8% of annual salary. Actual amount depends on your performance and Aviva's.
  3. Generous pension scheme - Aviva will contribute up to 14%, depending on what you put in.
  4. 29 days holiday plus bank holidays, and you can choose to buy or sell up to 5 days.
  5. Up to 40% discount on Aviva products and other retailer discounts.
  6. Up to £1,200 of free Aviva shares per year through our Matching Share Plan and share in the success of Aviva with our Save As You Earn scheme.
  7. Brilliantly supportive policies including parental and carer's leave.
  8. Flexible benefits to suit you, including sustainability options such as cycle to work.
  9. Make a difference, be part of our Aviva Communities and use your 3 paid volunteering days to help others.
  10. We take your wellbeing seriously with lots of support and tools.
Aviva is for everyone:

We're inclusive and welcome everyone – we want applications from people with diverse backgrounds and experiences.

Excited but not sure you tick every box? Research tells us that women, particularly, feel this way. So, regardless of gender, why not apply? And if you're in a job share just apply as a pair.

We flex locations, hours, and working patterns to suit our customers, business, and you. Most of our people are smart working – spending around 50% of their time in our offices every week - combining the benefits of flexibility, with time together with colleagues.
