Job Purpose
The SIAM Architect is responsible for defining and maintaining the architectural blueprint that underpins the Service Integration and Management (SIAM) function. This role ensures that service, process, and tooling architectures are designed to enable seamless integration, governance, and performance across internal teams and external service providers. Operating at the intersection of service design and enterprise architecture, the SIAM Architect ensures that all architectural decisions support ITIL‑aligned service management, operational efficiency, and strategic transformation.
Responsibilities
* Define and maintain the high‑level service and solution architecture for the SIAM function, ensuring alignment with enterprise architecture principles and ITIL best practices.
* Lead the design of technology and process architectures that support end‑to‑end service integration. Ensure that all designs promote standardisation, automation, and interoperability across the service ecosystem.
* Develop and maintain the business and process architectural principles for SIAM, ensuring that service management processes are clearly defined, scalable, and aligned with business objectives.
* Define the architectural framework for all SIAM tooling, including IT Service Management (ITSM) platforms and Business Workflow Frameworks (BWF). Ensure tooling is integrated, scalable, and supports the full lifecycle of service delivery and integration.
* Establish and govern design standards for service architecture, including integration design principles and data architecture.
* Define the data architecture for service management, with a strong emphasis on Configuration Management Database (CMDB) centricity.
* Collaborate with enterprise architects, service owners, process leads, and third‑party partners to ensure architectural alignment and adoption.
* Engage and influence key stakeholders to ensure the solution addresses both functional and non‑functional needs of the business, working with Security and Information Risk functions to meet security standards and principles.
Personal Profile
* Extensive experience in IT architecture, with a focus on service management, integration, and tooling within a SIAM or multi‑supplier environment.
* Strong understanding of ITIL processes and their architectural implications.
* Proven ability to define and govern architectural standards across complex service ecosystems.
* Experience with ITSM platforms (e.g., ServiceNow, BMC Remedy) and integration frameworks.
* Familiarity with CMDB design, data modelling, and service mapping.
* Demonstrable ability to understand complex technical processes/challenges and create pragmatic solutions is critical to success in this position.
