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

Doctorcall is now moving from a respected service business into a technology-enabled healthcare business with growth beyond our current UK operations. We develop our own software, and are actively developing our platform into new areas which needs to marry operational needs with clinical concerns. We are a small team, so this is not a role for someone who wants to stay in a narrow lane. It is for someone prepared to roll their sleeves up, work with low ego, challenge constructively and help make things better every week. Key responsibilities You will: • Take day-to-day responsibility for core clinical governance processes, • Support CQC readiness and maintain governance evidence, action logs and risk registers, • Prepare, chair and minute clinical governance meetings, • Support safeguarding, medicines management, prescribing audits and clinical standards, • Help maintain practical SOPs, policies and clinical pathways, • Act as the clinical point of connection between operations, doctors and engineering, • Support non-clinical operational colleagues with clinical policy, escalation routes and practical advice, • Identify friction points in patient journeys, doctor workflows and operational processes, • Lead quality improvement projects from idea to delivery, • Help develop clinical KPIs and quality dashboards, • Support doctor onboarding, induction and consistent clinical standards, • Contribute to product development over time by translating clinical workflows into clear digital requirements What we are looking for Essential: • Full GMC registration in good standing, • Completion of UK Foundation training, typically FY1/FY2, or equivalent clinical experience, • Genuine interest in healthcare operations, clinical governance, quality improvement, service design or healthtech, • Strong written and verbal communication skills, • Highly organised, with the ability to manage several workstreams in parallel, • Sound clinical judgement and confidence knowing when to escalate, • Ability to challenge senior colleagues constructively and respectfully, • Low ego, high ownership and willingness to do hands-on work in a small team, • Curiosity about how healthcare works across regulation, operations, product, data and patient experience, • Comfortable working with non-clinical colleagues, engineers, suppliers and corporate clients, • Based in, or willing to relocate to, Manchester Desirable: • Experience in private healthcare, out-of-hospital care or clinical operations, • Experience completing audits, QIPs or service evaluations, • Familiarity with CQC, NHS quality improvement methods or clinical governance frameworks, • Exposure to digital health, EHR systems, product development or software teams, • Interest in moving into healthtech, consulting, operations, public health, leadership or entrepreneurship The kind of person who will thrive here You are clinically credible but not precious about hierarchy. You like solving messy, practical problems and are comfortable switching between a patient safety issue, a workflow question, a policy update and a product discussion. You care about detail but can keep moving at pace. You are confident enough to challenge, humble enough to listen and motivated by building something useful. You want to step away from a purely clinical path without wasting your clinical training. Why join Doctorcall? This is a rare opportunity for a doctor who wants to use their clinical training in a broader way and build a credible path into healthcare operations, clinical leadership, healthtech, consulting, public health or entrepreneurship. You will have real ownership, senior exposure and the chance to shape how a small, ambitious healthcare company builds for its next stage.

Title: Senior Graphic Designer / Creative Lead Location: Remote (Greater Manchester, UK) Salary: £40,000 per annum Type: Full-time, permanent About Us Bordeaux & Burgundy, headquartered in New York, is a B2B SaaS, content-first marketing firm. We work with the world's most ambitious SaaS and technology brands. Building GTM engines, we help our clients clarify their positioning, learn their audience and generate demand through content marketing and channel distribution. To date, we've driven over $10bn in acquisitions, $2bn+ in pipeline and thousands of new customers for our client brands across the FinServ, Healthcare Tech, and AI industries. Where we stand apart from a sector increasingly dominated by volume promises and short-term tactics, is our belief that an agency partner develops B2B growth through long-term consistency – not in 5-step packages or false guarantees. We do not sell lead quotas, growth hacks, or templated playbooks. We build credible go-to-market engines designed to withstand scrutiny from founders, sales teams, and investors. We fundamentally believe in creating sustainable, compounding results over the long-term. Today, we're partnered with the world's most prestigious VC/PE investor firms, government organisations, and leading technology companies, and are continuously recognised by the leading industry bodies: Forbes, The Drum, Campaign, Adweek, BIMA and more. We're known for world-class marketing ideas and execution. Our team comprises multidisciplinary B2B marketing experts, known in their respective fields for elite expertise and mastery of sophisticated GTM models across channels. To join this elite team, we now seek a Creative Lead – an expert designer and creative representative of the firm, ideating and building the visual assets of our clients’ GTM programmes. The Role This is a senior, execution-heavy, creatively led role for a graphic designer who deeply understands B2B marketing and is as confident crafting visual systems as they are applying them across real GTM environments. This is not a production-only design role. It is a creative ownership and leadership position designed for a visual strategist who understands how design defines positioning, sharpens narrative clarity, performs across channels, and compounds value across a company’s go-to-market engine. You will own creative and design delivery across our B2B SaaS client portfolio – designing high-impact paid social assets for LinkedIn and Meta, long-form content systems (whitepapers, guides, eBooks), landing pages, sales and pitch materials, and campaign visual identities. You will be expected to design and maintain scalable template systems in Figma, establish efficient creative workflows, and set the standard for how work is produced, reviewed, and evolved. You will use AI thoughtfully and selectively – as a tool to enhance ideation and accelerate exploration, not as a substitute for judgement and craft. In many cases, you will be establishing brands from first principles – working with early-stage SaaS companies executing their first GTM motion. In others, you will be responsible for elevating and re-articulating existing brand systems to meet new commercial ambition. You will be expected to push creative boundaries when the brief demands it, set creative direction with confidence, and balance originality with logic, clarity, and performance. You will be treated as the firm’s subject-matter expert in B2B creative and design. You will lead creative decisions with conviction, defend them logically, and uphold an exceptionally high bar for craft, detail, and accuracy. Location & Working Pattern • Remote role – a hybrid model is likely to develop in Manchester as the business grows, • Must be based in the Greater Manchester area or commutable, • Regular in-person working with Manchester-based colleagues, • Occasional client meetings (UK, with occasional international travel) Before You Apply We respect your time. And once you join us, you’ll learn that we operate transparently and value getting to the point efficiently. As such… This role is not for you, if any of these ring true: • You are not based in, or within commutable distance of, Greater Manchester, • You have not worked in a B2B environment, • You have limited experience designing for LinkedIn Ads, Meta Ads, long-form PDF content, or landing pages, • You are not proficient in Figma – it is essential to this role, • You are uncomfortable owning creative decisions or defending them with logic to senior client stakeholders, • You require fully formed briefs to begin work – this role requires ideation and collaboration, • You find fast-paced agency environments stressful rather than motivating We are being deliberately transparent and upfront. The care we take of our team is of utmost importance to us, and every new member is held to the same high standards we expect of one another. Working at Bordeaux & Burgundy Honesty, integrity, logic and humour. If you value these in your workplace, you’ll fit in perfectly. We take marketing very seriously – and the quality of service our clients receive, even more so. But we don’t take ourselves seriously. You’ll find no egos here. Every teammate will help you solve challenges, respond quickly, treat you with respect, and support your professional growth.
