Data Architect

London | Hybrid – 2 days per week
£90,000–£110,000 + 20–25% bonus

We’re working with a leading global bank that is continuing to grow its EMEA Data Architecture function, with two opportunities available for experienced Data Architects.

This is a business-facing architecture role, working across key areas of the bank to understand the current data landscape, define future-state architecture and help shape how data is managed across the organisation.

The role

• Own current and target-state Data Architecture across business areas and domains.
• Define data domains, flows and conceptual/logical data models.
• Work closely with senior business and technology stakeholders.
• Support Data Governance, architecture standards and frameworks.
• Contribute to significant transformation programmes across EMEA.
• Collaborate with Data Architects globally to drive consistency and best practice.

What we’re looking for

• Strong Data Architecture experience.
• Banking experience is essential, ideally within a large/global bank.
• Strong Data Governance and Data Management knowledge.
• Experience with current/target-state architecture and data modelling.
• Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills.
• A genuinely business-facing approach, rather than purely technical architecture.

Experience within Corporate or Investment Banking, including areas such as Risk, Finance, Lending, Transactions or Compliance, would be particularly valuable.

A great opportunity to join a growing EMEA Data function and play a key role in shaping the data architecture of a major global bank.
