Information Technology Recruitment Consultant

• Location: Remote-first, with occasional travel to client sites

We’re partnered with a leading digital transformation consultancy that’s redefining how organisations use technology to deliver meaningful change. They’re known for combining innovation with purpose — designing and building solutions that make a real difference to millions of users across both the public and private sectors.

This is an opportunity to step into a Principal-level leadership role — where you’ll shape technical strategy, set architectural direction across major programmes, and influence some of the UK’s most high‑profile digital transformations. You’ll have the autonomy to drive standards, mentor talented architects and engineers, and act as a trusted advisor to senior stakeholders.

It’s a perfect fit for someone who still enjoys being close to the technology, but wants to operate at a strategic level — leading through influence, guiding best practice, and ensuring that solutions not only work, but scale and last.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the design and delivery of complex, modern digital solutions across large-scale programmes.
• Define architectural principles, technical strategy, and design assurance across multiple teams.
• Partner with senior stakeholders to align business outcomes with technology direction.
• Provide leadership and mentorship to architects and engineers, helping them progress in their careers.
• Drive consistency and excellence through architectural governance and continuous improvement.
• Stay ahead of emerging technologies and help shape long‑term technical roadmaps.

What You’ll Bring

• Proven experience delivering enterprise‑scale software architectures and transformations.
• Strong technical foundation across cloud platforms (AWS or Azure), SaaS, and PaaS.
• Deep understanding of solution architecture, integration, APIs, and non‑functional design.
• Background in software engineering, with the ability to communicate credibly across technical teams.
• Skilled at engaging senior stakeholders, influencing decisions, and balancing technical and commercial priorities.
• Passion for coaching and developing others — with a genuine interest in building capability and culture.
• Experience shaping technology strategy or contributing to pre‑sales and account growth.
• Active contributor to the wider tech community or thought leadership initiatives.

Why Apply?

This is an exceptional opportunity for a senior architect who wants to make a tangible impact — driving architectural strategy on transformative digital programmes while helping shape the next generation of technical talent.

You’ll be part of a collaborative, people‑focused consultancy that truly values innovation, creativity, and growth.
