We are currently seeking a highly skilled and experienced Architecture Leader, to join our team at Royal London. As the most senior Architect at Royal London, you will be instrumental in leading and coaching your team to create the technology strategies and roadmaps that underpin and enable the delivery of our business strategy.

You will be solely responsible for a team of technology architects as well as having matrix responsibility for ensuring alignment with other architecture disciplines (e.g., data, business, security) across Royal London so being an effective collaborator will be key. You will also operate in a multi-disciplinary environment so collaborating and problem solving with colleagues across business lines, technology, data, and change will be a daily occurrence and something you should enjoy.

You will be responsible for the overall architecture governance at Royal London to ensure that we strike a balance between designing for early value and designing for long term and groupwide use.
