The opportunity

We are seeking an Enterprise Integration Director to join our Chief Data Office team.

This crucial leadership role will optimize data integrations across major programmes, evolve Client’s enterprise view of data and our strategic approach to integrating data across major platforms, and reduce complexity in our approach.

This role has several core elements:

• Collaborate with architects and engineers to ensure integration capabilities evolve over time
• Strategic management of data integrations at Client. The successful candidate will govern and approve data integration architecture. They will need to have experience with a variety of design patterns and understand the pros and cons of selecting a pattern for a given use case or set of requirements.
• Continually improve key elements of integration design and delivery:
  • Integration reference architecture
  • Integration patterns & best practices
  • Integration architecture design templates
  • Roadmap to improve integration services overtime
• Ensure integration delivery proceeds according to integration design. This includes leading a governance forum
• This work will reduce the time and cost of technology transformation programmes by optimising integrations across Client.
• The ideal candidate will have experience managing data and application integrations within a large enterprise, of promoting good governance through data contracts or a similar approach, and of leading cross-functional initiatives to realise value through unlocking data.

Key responsibilities

You will:

• Evolve Client’s integration reference architecture and design templates
• Lead, develop and ultimately deploy the approach for integration management and governance across enterprise programmes
• Work with integration platform owners to develop a scalable platform that meets the evolving needs of Client
• Develop and implement a strategy to swiftly identify critical data elements using conceptual models and data designs provided by project teams
• Identify and monitor data interdependencies across enterprise platforms to optimise and reduce complexity

About you

• This role is as much about collaboration and communication as it is about technology – it will require working across multiple project and stakeholders to achieve the best outcome for Client, ultimately ensuring data integrations are delivered in the optimal way for programme success. It will require substantial experience of integration architecture and of data governance across large, complex programs.
• Above all you’ll be a leader in the data space – adept at managing conflicting needs and multiple points of view to gain the best possible outcome for the organisation, and further the value gained from data.
