Solution Architect - Payroll Programme - 12 Month Contract

Collada is looking to add another experienced Solution Architect to our associate network.

We've got a 12-month programme coming up centred around payroll and enterprise systems. The environment is already established and needs someone who can come in, understand what's going on, work with both business and technology stakeholders, and help move things forward.

This isn't a role for someone who wants to stay at the conceptual level. We're looking for an architect who is comfortable talking strategy one minute and discussing technical design decisions the next. Someone who can engage with vendors, delivery teams, business leaders and subject matter experts without getting lost in process.

The programme involves a mix of architectural direction, design review, stakeholder engagement, decision making, and helping delivery teams navigate a complex landscape. There is already plenty of work underway, so the ability to quickly get context and add value is important.

We're particularly interested in people with experience across:

• Payroll, HRIS, HCM or workforce-related systems
• Enterprise applications and integration
• Solution Architecture within large organisations
• Complex transformation programmes
• Vendor and stakeholder management
