- Review supplier designs and support technical workshops throughout delivery
- Enable successful handover to support teams through strong documentation and knowledge transfer

- Experience reviewing supplier designs and governing architectural standards
- Knowledge of testing, deployment, cutover and transition-to-support activities
- Excellent stakeholder management skills across business and technical teams
- Experience managing technical risk, governance and architectural decision-making
Desirable

✅ Pragmatic and delivery-minded
✅ Confident challenging assumptions and driving best-practice solutions
✅ An exceptional communicator with both technical and non-technical audiences
