This is a senior appointment with real strategic weight - you will own the target architecture for the Group, shape multi-million-pound platform decisions, and bring coherence to a technology landscape built across more than seven acquisitions.\nThis is not a governance or advisory role. We are looking for someone who combines architectural vision with the credibility to work alongside engineers, technology teams and strategic vendors to see decisions through to delivery. If you thrive on simplifying complexity, making consequential choices and building something that endures, we would welcome a conversation.\nWhat you'll be doing\nDefine the single target enterprise architecture for the Group and a practical roadmap to rationalise a technology landscape created through 7+ acquisitions\nShape major strategic technology decisions, including the future client portal, SIPP SaaS platform and the long-term future of core platforms such as Xplan\nEstablish architectural patterns and integration standards that allow AI - including emerging agentic capabilities - to work safely with core systems, data and business workflows\nDefine and embed pragmatic architecture principles, governance and technology standards adopted consistently across the Group\nWork hands-on with engineering teams, technology partners and strategic vendors to guide implementation and ensure delivery follows architectural intent\nCommunicate complex technology choices clearly to the CIO, ExCo and senior business leaders, including supporting technology due diligence for future acquisitions\nWhat we're looking for\nProven experience leading meaningful architecture and simplification in a complex organisation, ideally one shaped by acquisitions\nThe ability to combine long-term strategic direction with delivery credibility - equally comfortable setting a multi-year roadmap and getting into a platform or integration discussion when needed\nStrong capability across business, application, integration, data, infrastructure and AI architecture, with the breadth to make good decisions across each domain\nExperience in regulated financial services or another complex regulated environment; wealth management background is advantageous but not essential\nSufficient understanding of modern AI architecture - including APIs, agents, data access, security and vendor landscape - to make sound enterprise architecture decisions\nA pragmatic, decisive approach: someone who simplifies rather than elaborates, makes clear recommendations and drives them through to completion\nWhy join us\nMattioli Woods presents a genuinely unusual architecture challenge: a business with real scale, continued acquisition activity and a clear mandate from the CIO and ExCo to rationalise and modernise. You will not be maintaining someone else's blueprint - you will be defining one from the ground up, with the authority and sponsorship to make it stick.\nThe scope of the role is broad by design. From AI integration standards to platform strategy to acquisition architecture, you will be involved in the decisions that shape the Group's future operating model. As the business grows, so does the opportunity to build an architecture capability around you and develop the practice beyond your own individual contribution.\nPerks and benefits\ncompetitive salary\nfull-time hybrid working\n4x salary life assurance and group income protection\nhealth cash plan (Core Level 1)\n25 days' holiday plus statutory (increasing with service)\nongoing CPD support and training\na senior technology leadership environment with direct access to the CIO and ExCo\nBenenden Healthcare (company-funded; includes 24/7 GP access, mental health support, medical diagnostics, and access to selected surgical treatments)\n5% Employer and 5% Employee minimum Group Pension contribution (if you choose to contribute 6%, we will match this)","description_format":"text","description_chars":4077,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Hybrid work"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United Kingdom","iso":"GB","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Financial Services","Wealth Management & Financial Advisors","Human Resources"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-07T10:01:54Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"GB","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"Licensed UK visa sponsor (Skilled Worker)","filings_12m":null,"filings_prev_12m":null,"green_card_filings_12m":null,"median_offered_wage_usd":null,"route":"Skilled Worker","cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-27T06:21:15+00:00","sources":["UK Home Office: register of licensed sponsors (workers)"],"filings_for_role_12m":0}],"liveness":{"score":57,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.756,"p_room":0.75,"age_days":35,"expected_fill_days":41,"reasons":["conf:25","win:late"],"computed_at":"2026-10-27T05:46:45Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/mattioli-woods-enterprise-architect","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/mattioli-woods-enterprise-architect.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-27T12:57:43Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":915,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-28T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":3064480},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=3064480"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fmattioli-woods-enterprise-architect"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fmattioli-woods-enterprise-architect"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fmattioli-woods-enterprise-architect"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/mattioli-woods-enterprise-architect\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fmattioli-woods-enterprise-architect"}]}
