• Strong background in Azure and on-prem IT infrastructure (VMware, Cisco, Microsoft Entra, M365, Intune, MS Security Suite, Telephony Systems, etc.).
• A track record of stability and long-term impact in previous roles.
• Excellent stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to bridge the gap between technical teams and business leaders.
• ine management experience or the willingness to lead a small team of Solution Architects.
• Familiarity with enterprise architecture tooling (eg, Ardoq) and frameworks such as TOGAF (preferred).

• Be part of a transformational journey to modernize infrastructure and drive strategic change.
• Work in a highly flexible, remote-friendly environment with a strong emphasis on work-life balance.
• Enjoy industry-leading benefits, including a generous pension and leave package.
• Collaborate with passionate professionals dedicated to making a real impact.
