ServiceNow Architect - Hybrid (UK-wide, once/month office + client travel) - 75k + bonus We're on the lookout for a ServiceNow Architect who knows their way around the platform and isn't afraid to get stuck in. You'll be joining a solid team working with big-name clients on proper transformation projects, not just tweaking forms or fiddling with workflows. You don't have to have bags of experience, but ideally you'll come from a consultancy background and have done some work in the ServiceNow Architecture space. If you're someone who enjoys solving chunky problems, building slick solutions, and having a real say in how things get done, this could be right up your street. What You'll Be Doing: You'll be front and centre when it comes to shaping how ServiceNow fits into the wider business and tech landscape. That means working closely with clients to understand what they actually need, mapping out the journey, and designing the architecture to get them there. You'll be hands-on with the platform - building, configuring, and making sure it all runs like clockwork. Whether it's ITSM, ITOM, GenAI, or UI Builder, you'll know how to get the best out of it. You'll also be guiding developers, consultants, and PMs to make sure everyone's pulling in the same direction. And it's not just about the tech. You'll be helping clients rethink how they work spotting opportunities to automate, streamline, and improve. You'll also get involved in internal innovation, shaping new ideas, writing the odd whitepaper, and helping win new work. What We're After: You might already be an Architect, or you're a strong Developer ready to step up. Either way, you've got solid platform experience, a few certs under your belt (System Admin, Implementation Specialist, etc.), and you're comfortable talking both tech and business. You've worked across different modules and know how to tie it all together into something that delivers real value. You're confident leading teams, working with clients, and making decisions that stick. Bonus points if you've worked in agile setups, used modelling tools like BPMN/UML, and have a decent handle on scripting and integrations. But more than anything, we want someone who's curious, collaborative, and up for a challenge. What's In It For You: Up to 75k base + performance bonus Flexible benefits tailored to your lifestyle Mental health and wellbeing support Fancy it? I'm looking to get CVs out for this ASAP so send your CV in for immediate consideration on this one.
