Data Architect – London (Hybrid, 2 days in the office)

We’re looking for a Data Architect who can take ownership of enterprise‑wide data governance and shape the future of data architecture across a complex, fast‑moving financial services environment. If you’re passionate about building scalable, compliant, cloud‑ready data ecosystems, this role puts you right at the centre of transformation.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Developing and embedding governance frameworks covering ownership models, metadata strategy, lifecycle policies, and retention standards.
  • Leading cross‑functional governance activity, including chairing a Data Governance Council and driving stewardship across the organisation.
  • Defining and enforcing data quality standards while ensuring alignment with GDPR, CCPA, and wider regulatory expectations.
  • Designing and delivering modern data platforms, supporting cloud adoption, and shaping architecture across data lakes, warehouses, and content systems.
  • Promoting a data‑first culture through training, awareness, and best‑practice enablement.

What You’ll Bring

  • Strong experience in data architecture and modelling (conceptual, logical, physical).
  • Background working with data lakes, warehouses, and master data management.
  • Hands‑on skills in ETL/ELT, integration, and orchestration.
  • Familiarity with Azure, Fabric, PowerBI, SQL Server, and PostgreSQL.
  • 5+ years’ recent experience in financial services or fintech.
  • Certifications such as Azure/Fabric Data Engineer Associate or SnowPro Advanced Architect.
  • Experience designing analytics platforms in regulated environments.

Personal Qualities

  • Confident communicator with strong stakeholder engagement skills.
  • Analytical, detail‑driven, and structured in your approach.
  • Collaborative leader who enjoys influencing and enabling others.
  • Commercially aware with a customer‑centric mindset.

If you’re ready to lead data governance and architecture in a high‑impact role, get in touch for a confidential conversation.
