About the role
As an Enterprise Multi-Solution Architect, you will make an impact by shaping end-to-end digital experience and MarTech transformations for global clients, connecting business ambition, customer journeys and operating-model needs to pragmatic capability architectures, technology choices, transformation roadmaps and commercially viable service offerings.

In this role, you will
- Define current-state, target-state and transition architectures spanning experience, content, customer data, decisioning, analytics, workflow, integration, cloud and operations, and lead discovery and architecture workshops with business, marketing, data, product, security and technology stakeholders.
- Assess and architect platform-agnostic CMS/DXP, analytics, CDP, personalisation and journey orchestration solutions using objective business and technical criteria, remaining neutral across vendors.
- Design governed generative AI, retrieval-augmented generation, copilots and multi-agent workflows that integrate with enterprise platforms while preserving security, privacy, governance and human accountability.
- Create productized service offerings, accelerators, reference architectures and reusable assets that help account teams sell and delivery teams execute.
- Lead solution strategy for RFIs, RFPs, proactive proposals and executive client discussions, and provide architecture governance from discovery through production readiness.
