Job summary

As one of our Associate Enterprise Architects, youll work with support from senior architects to develop and deliver GCHQs enterprise architecture. By translating organisational goals into actionable architectural strategies, youll lead design initiatives, proactively identify risks and constraints, and optimise environments across technology, data, and processes to deliver impactful solutions. The nature of our work means our technology must be cutting edge and is often unique to our one-of-a-kind mission. So, the opportunity for learning in this role is extensive, with lots of interesting challenges and plenty of development opportunities on offer.

Job description

Mentored by one of our Enterprise Architects, youll collaborate with delivery teams and stakeholders throughout the organisation, applying best practice and emerging approaches while growing your own skills. Every day, youll play an important part in helping teams deliver mission-critical work as you contribute to designs and documentation and provide analysis. Working with technical and business teams, youll then collaborate to align solutions to their needs and our organisational strategies.

Youll work with other architects, engineers, project managers and delivery leads across GCHQ. And sometimes, with support, youll liaise with external suppliers and partners. Please note that occasional travel will be required to sites across the UK to enable you to work closely with colleagues from all areas of the organisation.

Person specification

You dont need a degree or any specific qualifications to apply for this role. Were most interested in your support for our shared mission, and how youve contributed to architectural work across technology, data, digital or business change initiatives. Whether thats supporting designs, analysing impacts or documenting architectures, youll have gained practical experience in the field.

Your working knowledge of enterprise architecture comes from real delivery environments, where decisions are shaped by organisational goals, constraints and trade-offs. Working with or deputising for senior architects in these environments has helped you build confidence in forming and explaining architectural viewpoints. And your curiosity means youre eager to learn more.

Architectural standards, principles and governance are familiar territory for you, and you've worked with at least one modern architecture framework (like TOGAF, Zachman or MODAF) to guide your work.

Sound communication and problem-solving skills are vital in this role. You can analyse requirements, shape solutions at the right level of detail, and clearly articulate risks and trade-offs to both technical and non-technical audiences. You can also collaborate well, adapt as priorities shift, and manage your time effectively.

Benefits

Youll receive a starting salary of £55,758 to £63,948, including a concessionary payment of £2,658. The final amount depends on your skills and experience, plus other benefits including:

25 days annual leave automatically rising to 30 days after 5 years' service, and an additional 10.5 days of public and privilege holidays
opportunities to be recognised through our employee performance scheme
an interest-free season ticket loan (travel and parking)
an excellent pension scheme
a cycle to work scheme
facilities such as a gym, restaurant, and on-site coffee bars (at some locations)
paid parental and adoption leave
