Role: Enterprise Architect Contract Location: UK-based home working with travel to MOD, defence industry, and secure customer sites as required Duration: Initial 3-month contract with extension options available Clearance: SC clearance required Rate: £(Apply online only)/day Outside IR35 Key skills Working with ambiguity that comes from an R&D environment, Enterprise Architecture, TOGAF, MODAF, Secure Cloud, Cyber Security, Defence Digital Transformation, AI-enabled Systems You ve spent your career looking at the bigger picture. You understand how strategy, technology, operations, security, and business objectives all need to come together to create solutions that actually work. You can see beyond individual systems and projects, understanding how organisations evolve their technology landscapes over time and how architecture decisions today can impact operational effectiveness for years to come. If that sounds like you, this is the sort of role that doesn t come around very often. I m working with a defence-focused technology and R&D environment looking for an Enterprise Architect to help shape the future direction of large-scale defence and digital transformation programmes. This is a genuinely strategic architecture position where you'll have the opportunity to influence how complex defence capabilities are designed, integrated, governed, and delivered across operational, information, cyber, cloud, and mission systems domains. You'll be helping define architecture principles, governance models, target-state architectures, and long-term technology roadmaps that support some of the most important transformation initiatives taking place within the defence sector. A major area of focus is around the adoption of emerging technologies and how they can be integrated safely and effectively into operational environments. Artificial Intelligence, Data Fabric, Data-Centred Security, autonomous systems, and modern data exploitation platforms are all key areas of investment. They're looking for someone who can assess these technologies from both a strategic and practical perspective, helping determine where they can create genuine operational advantage while ensuring solutions remain secure, resilient, and supportable. This is very much an architecture leadership role. You'll be responsible for aligning business capabilities, operational requirements, information flows, security controls, and technology delivery across multiple programmes and stakeholders. You'll help ensure architectural consistency across complex environments that span cloud, on-premise, classified, and multi-domain systems. A large part of the role will involve working with senior stakeholders across MOD R&D delivery teams, technical design authorities, security specialists, industry partners, and programme leadership teams. You'll need to be comfortable presenting recommendations, influencing decision-making, and helping organisations navigate complex technical and strategic challenges. From a technical perspective, they're looking for experience across areas such as: Enterprise Architecture frameworks including TOGAF, MODAF, NAF, or ArchiMate Enterprise-wide transformation and architecture governance Hybrid cloud, on-premise, and secure environments Cyber security architecture and resilience Data architecture, integration, and governance API and event-driven architectures DevSecOps and modern delivery models Large-scale systems integration Experience within R&D in defence, national security, government, or other highly regulated environments would be particularly valuable, especially where you've supported digital transformation, secure technology adoption, cyber resilience programmes, or complex stakeholder environments. You'll probably enjoy this role if you like balancing strategic thinking with practical delivery, working across multiple domains, and helping organisations make better long-term technology decisions. The work is varied, highly visible, and closely connected to future defence capability development, making it an excellent opportunity for someone who wants to influence programmes at an enterprise level rather than focusing purely on individual solutions. If you're looking for an architecture role where you'll help shape strategy, influence major transformation programmes, and work with emerging technologies that are changing the future of defence, this is definitely one worth exploring. Apply now or get in touch to find out more. We welcome diverse applicants and are dedicated to treating all applicants with dignity and respect, regardless of background.
