You'll work at least two days a week (40%) away from home, moving to three days a week (60%) in the future.

  • Partnering with solution architects and global product management to define standardised solution and services baselines to meet strict security targets and converging platform principles
  • Demonstrate innovations through prototyping and proof of concept work
  • Building strong relationships with key stakeholders such as the Enterprise Information Architect, Solution and Enterprise Architects as well as delivery teams

Due to the number of applications, we expect to receive for this role, we reserve the right to close this advert earlier than the listed closing date to ensure we’re able to effectively manage interest. Therefore, if you’re interested in joining us at AXA, please don’t hesitate to apply.
