About this Role

We are seeking a Senior Business Architect to lead the design, development and execution of business architecture frameworks across VOIS domains. This role plays a central part in shaping VOIS’ strategic direction, enabling enterprise transformation, and ensuring alignment between processes, technology, and organisational objectives.

• Develop business change implementation approaches that maintain stakeholder engagement and enable delivery against strategy.
• Analyse and design high‑level process flows and contribute long‑term strategy ideas aligned with the VOIS value framework.
• Act as a trusted partner to stakeholders by establishing strong relationships, facilitating workshops and strategy meetings, and moderating technical discussions in a way that is understandable for non‑technical audiences.
• Collect, analyse and define requirements, ensuring clarity on how each requirement drives value.
• Develop design options based on contextual analysis, identify hidden opportunities, and translate insights into actionable recommendations.
• Shape and scope projects while tracing, maintaining and prioritising requirements.
• Map processes using standard tools (Signavio experience is preferred) and promote VOIS best practices across the organisation.
• Support solution evaluation by analysing performance measures, reviewing organisational limitations and identifying ways to increase solution value.
• Contribute to strategy governance by capturing the maturity, implementation status, pain points and opportunities for enhancement across domains.
• Define and promote repeatable, tightly governed integration architecture aligned with Vodafone’s technical, security and process standards.
• Collaborate with vendor teams, providing feedback on needs, challenges and potential enhancements that can deliver greater value for VOIS.

Who you are

• Strong communicator with excellent presentation capabilities.
• Effective at time management, action tracking and cross‑functional leadership.
• Confident in facilitating workshops and guiding strategic discussions.
• Possess foundational knowledge or exposure to business analysis or business architecture practices.
• Familiarity with BABOK, TOGAF or SAFe is beneficial.
