Big things are happening at Riverside and we want some truly outstanding people to join us on the next phase of our Digital Business journey. We've created exciting new roles to build on our programmes to drive customer benefit through our Salesforce digital presence and our growing colleague capability through Oracle HCM and Microsoft 365. And as well as our strong focus on data with our enterprise Snowflake data warehouse, we're focused on moving our maturing cyber security posture with our SIEM partner to the next level of certification. We're focused on rationalising our technology, securely and sustainably, as we continue to move to Cloud services, looking to consolidate our position with leading Microsoft enterprise cloud services, remote device management and an empowered DevOps approach. We operate smart working here at Riverside which focuses on outcome rather than location, so we're flexible on where our colleagues are based. So if you want to be part of our digital transformation, you could make a difference, wherever you're based.

The difference you'll make

As the role holder, you will own the high level IT technical solution designs for often complex or large applications with high profile, critical or strategic implications, across a diverse range of business areas across the entire Group.

You will also drive value for money and adherence to the strategic IT Principles, meeting business and project objectives.

So, who are you?

We're looking for someone with proven experience of successfully defining IT solutions for Data Warehouse and Data Management / Analytics projects, and a track record of successfully defining IT solutions for significant projects. 

You have in-depth knowledge of solution architecture tools and techniques and can lead composite technical teams formed internally and from delivery partners.

A team player, you are customer focused with excellent communication skills. Effective negotiation skills and the ability to manage stakeholders is vital.

Although not essential, understanding of DevOps, Agile and Lean business re-engineering principles and processes would be an advantage.

Enjoy the rewards

This a job that offers true satisfaction with the chance to help those who can't afford a house of their own.

You'll find Riverside to be an organisation that is focused on being an employer of choice where people thrive and your voice is truly heard. Working with us, you'll enjoy competitive pay, a wide range of benefits, employee offers, and the chance to learn valuable new skills. We empower our people to do great work by investing in learning, personal development and technology.

If you're the kind of person that wants to do a really great job and make a difference to our customers, we think you'll love it here. Sound like a challenge you'd like to take on? Then get in touch and let's talk about how you can help us transform lives and revitalise neighbourhoods.

We encourage applicants from all sections of the community so that we can truly reflect the neighbourhoods in which we work.
