Principal Solution Architect Manchester – Hybrid (2 Days Per Week) Occasional Birmingham Travel Up to £100,000 Base + £6,300 Car Allowance + 20% Bonus The Opportunity This is a rare opportunity to join our client - a major enterprise SaaS organisation at a pivotal stage of modernisation and growth. The business operates a suite of highly scaled digital platforms used across multiple international markets, supporting millions of transactions, complex integrations, and mission-critical customer journeys every single day. Their technology estate is extensive, their ambitions are significant, and architecture sits at the centre of that transformation. As Solution Architect, you will play a key role in shaping the future technical direction of several enterprise-grade platforms, working closely with engineering, product, and senior technology leadership to define scalable, modern, cloud-native solutions capable of supporting long-term commercial growth. This is not a governance-only architecture role. The environment demands somebody capable of operating strategically while remaining technically credible and close to engineering teams. The successful person will influence architecture decisions across distributed systems, cloud infrastructure, integrations, APIs, and modern software delivery practices while helping teams solve genuinely complex technical problems at scale. The organisation is investing heavily in platform evolution, engineering maturity, customer experience, and operational scalability. Architecture is viewed internally as a business-critical capability rather than a support function. Why This Role Stands Out You will be joining a business where architecture has genuine visibility and influence. The engineering landscape includes modern cloud-native platforms, high-volume transactional systems, large-scale integrations, distributed services, and evolving product ecosystems across multiple business domains. You will work directly with senior technology leaders and high-performing engineering teams to: • Define enterprise architecture strategies aligned to long-term business goals, • Shape cloud-native application and platform design, • Drive modern engineering standards and architectural governance, • Influence API, integration, and event-driven architecture strategies, • Support scalability, resilience, performance, and security initiatives, • Guide engineering teams through architectural challenges and modernisation efforts, • Partner closely with product and delivery functions to align technical direction with commercial priorities, • Evaluate emerging technologies and identify opportunities for innovation and optimisation, • Contribute to technical roadmaps spanning multiple product platforms and customer journeys This role offers the opportunity to influence systems that operate at genuine enterprise scale while still remaining close enough to delivery teams to see architectural decisions translate into real-world impact. Technology Environment The broader technology landscape includes: • .NET / C#, • AWS cloud infrastructure, • Microservices and distributed systems, • API-first architecture, • Event-driven systems, • Kubernetes and containerisation, • CI/CD and modern DevOps practices, • Enterprise integration platforms, • High-availability SaaS environments What They Are Looking For The business is looking for a technically credible architect who combines strategic thinking with practical engineering understanding. You will likely come from a strong software engineering or technical leadership background before moving into architecture and will feel comfortable operating in complex enterprise SaaS environments. The ideal profile will demonstrate: • Strong experience designing scalable enterprise SaaS solutions, • Excellent understanding of cloud-native architecture principles, • Experience working within modern distributed systems environments, • Ability to influence engineering teams and senior stakeholders alike, • Strong communication and stakeholder engagement capability, • Commercial awareness and understanding of how architecture impacts business outcomes, • Passion for modern engineering practices and continuous improvement, • Ability to balance strategic direction with pragmatic delivery The Environment The culture is collaborative, ambitious, and engineering-led. This is an organisation undergoing significant technology evolution, with strong investment into modern architecture, platform capability, and engineering excellence. The scale of systems, complexity of integrations, and commercial importance of the platforms create genuinely interesting technical challenges. The role operates on a hybrid basis from Manchester, typically two days per week onsite, alongside occasional monthly travel to Birmingham for leadership and collaboration sessions. Package • Up to £100,000 base salary, • Bonus scheme, • £6,300 car allowance, • Hybrid working, • Large-scale enterprise SaaS environment, • Significant architectural ownership and influence, • Long-term progression opportunities within a growing technology organisation

In House Real Estate Solicitor, (4 years PQE+) - Cheshire A rare pathway into a full‑time in‑house role This is a genuinely uncommon opportunity for an experienced commercial property solicitor who is looking to move closer to an in‑house role, without giving up the security, support or quality of private practice. The position has been created to support a well‑established international food and drink business with a significant UK property presence. The business manages a substantial owned and leased property portfolio, and the volume and complexity of work has reached the point where having dedicated, consistent in‑house legal support is now essential. The role is hybrid by design, initially combining time spent embedded within the business in Cheshire with access to a supportive private practice environment. Importantly, this is not a secondment and not a short‑term fix — there is a clear and realistic intention for the role to evolve into a full‑time in‑house commercial property position. Why this role is different • True in‑house exposure from day one, working closely with commercial stakeholders, • A rare chance to move towards in‑house without stepping away from private practice support too quickly, • The role already exists in practice — you’re stepping into a well‑established relationship, not building one from scratch, • Long‑term progression into a dedicated in‑house position is genuinely on the table You would remain employed by the firm initially, with full access to: • Established precedents, systems and knowledge support, • A highly regarded commercial property team, • Hands‑on support from the Head of Commercial Property What the role looks like day to day • Acting as the primary commercial property point of contact for the business, • Supporting approximately 20 live commercial property matters at any one time, alongside ad‑hoc project work, • Working closely with internal teams to track progress across transactions and portfolio matters, • Assisting with the organisation and migration of property documents, deeds and schedules, • Developing a deep understanding of the business’s property strategy and assets This is a role where you gain real commercial insight, visibility over decision‑making, and influence over outcomes — while still being backed by the structure of private practice. Who this will suit This opportunity will appeal to someone who: • Has 4+ years’ PQE in commercial property, • Is curious about in‑house, but wants a measured, credible transition, • Values continuity, long‑term relationships and strategic involvement, • Wants to step away from purely transactional, fee‑led work Interested to apply?
