Job description

Are you a Senior Solution Architect ready to shape the future of enterprise technology at scale? Join UK Power Networks and play a pivotal role in modernising core platforms across Azure, M365 and the Power Platform, helping power millions of homes and businesses across the UK.

As a trusted technical authority within the Information Systems team, you'll define current and target-state architectures, modernise legacy 3-tier applications, and lead the adoption of cloud-native, data-driven and platform-led solutions.

You'll work closely with senior business stakeholders, architects, delivery teams and strategic partners-guiding architectural decisions across multiple customer journeys while influencing up to £5m of technology investment.

Requirements

You'll thrive here if you enjoy solving complex business problems with technology and can confidently translate architecture into value. You'll bring:

  • Proven experience as a Senior Solution Architect in a large, complex IT environment
  • Deep expertise in Microsoft Azure, M365, Dynamics and Power Platform
  • Strong knowledge of cyber security, identity, integration and data architecture
  • Experience with enterprise architecture frameworks (TOGAF / ArchiMate)
  • The credibility to influence senior leaders and diverse technical teams

Benefits & conditions

In return, UK Power Networks offers:

  • 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays
  • Generous pension contributions (up to 10% employer)
  • Hybrid working, discounted gym membership, cycle-to-work and green car leasing
  • Employee assistance, occupational health support, and wide-ranging lifestyle benefits

If you're ready to lead enterprise-scale architecture, influence technology strategy, and help keep the UK connected through innovation-we'd love to hear from you.
