* Guide architects on security principles, practices, and assurance
* Contribute to architecture governance, standards, and documentation
* Collaborate with various teams to ensure secure system design
* Champion emerging security technologies and practices
Skills and Experience
* Proven experience as an Enterprise or Security Architect in complex environments
* Strong understanding of security frameworks, governance, and risk management
* Experience with secure architectures in cloud, hybrid, and legacy systems
* Knowledge of modelling tools (UML, ArchiMate, Bizz design)
* Broad technical knowledge across infrastructure, data, CRM, HR, and finance systems
* Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
* Experience working in regulated or high-compliance environments
* Experience with large enterprise transformation programmes
* Familiarity with architectural assurance and governance
