About The Role

FDM is a global business and technology consultancy seeking a Programme Design Governance Lead (Business Architect) to work for our client within the consumer healthcare sector. This is initially a 6-month contract with the potential to extend and will be a hybrid role that will be based in London.

Our client is undergoing a large-scale, business-led and technology-enabled enterprise transformation, underpinned by S/4HANA, and is currently standing up the governance and design structures needed to deliver at pace. They are seeking an experienced, business-architecture-minded delivery professional to orchestrate design governance across the programme — preparing and facilitating design authority forums, supporting the establishment of a new Enterprise Design Authority (EDA), and driving cross-programme alignment so that design decisions are well-prepared, coherent and ready for governance. This is a hands-on orchestration role for someone who brings structure to ambiguity, manages interdependencies, and drives decisions to closure at pace.

Responsibilities

Orchestrate design governance forums end to end (Enterprise, Business and Technical Design Authorities and working groups) - including preparation, facilitation, minutes and action tracking
Support the establishment and mobilisation of the Enterprise Design Authority, defining its terms of reference, membership, decision rights, submission standards, operating cadence and escalation pathways
Quality-assure pre-read packs and submissions, and maintain a decision register capturing approvals, conditions and traceability
Drive cross-programme design working groups to identify and resolve interdependencies and ensure design decisions are aligned and ready for governance
Collaborate with business and technology stakeholders to promote consistency, standardisation and simplification across business and technology design
Operate at pace in an ambiguous, evolving environment, proactively driving actions through to completion

About You

Demonstrable business architecture background, including process and operating-model design (As-Is/To-Be), with experience driving design consistency and standardisation
Hands-on governance experience - running or operating design or governance forums, including agendas, pre-reads, decision capture and action tracking
Strong facilitation and senior stakeholder management across both business and technology functions, with the ability to manage interdependencies and drive cross-functional alignment
Technical literacy sufficient to understand, challenge and govern design decisions (without needing to engineer the solution); familiarity with tools such as BPMN, DMN and UML, and modelling/collaboration tooling (e.g. Visio/Lucidchart, Jira, Confluence)
Exposure to large, multi-workstream transformation programmes, ideally S/4HANA or comparable enterprise change; design authority (EDA/BDA/TDA) or TOGAF experience desirable
Minimum of 8 years' experience in business architecture, design governance and/or complex programme delivery
