    Department Technology Roles /*generated inline style */ Location(s) London /*generated inline style */ Salary £75,077 to £83,677 dependent on skills and experience* /*generated inline style */ Job description

    Flexible Working: We support full-time, part time, compressed, and flexible hours. We're committed to offering remote working across our organisation, however, our ability to do this is dependent on role requirements and business needs.

    About Us

    We're MI6, also known as the Secret Intelligence Service (SIS). Our mission is to protect the security and economic wellbeing of the UK from overseas threats such as regional instability, terrorism, and cyber-attacks. Working across the globe and in close partnership with MI5 and GCHQ, we help the Government to counter these threats through the provision of secret intelligence. A role in MI6 will see you providing vital support to this work, within a supportive and encouraging environment that puts the emphasis on teamwork.

    The Role

    Architecture and technology are core to MI6 successful operations and intelligence delivery. There is a constant need to develop and maintain capabilities that provide us with mission advantage in a rapidly changing, technology and data driven world. So, we use agile and lean methodologies to innovate, deliver and upgrade products. Whether you work on data analytics, knowledge systems, communications or technical operations capabilities, the nature of our work presents unique and fascinating architecture challenges, the likes of which you will never have seen before.

    We build products that provide capability across MI6. Our multi-disciplinary teams are made up of architects & engineers who work alongside product owners, business analysts and delivery colleagues to ensure MI6 gets what it needs by balancing tactical and strategic goals and objectives. And as a Solution Architect, you'll lead the design and systems engineering approach for a specific area of our organisation, creating new products and working to continually improve the capabilities of our existing ones.

    As a Solutions Architect you'll be part of a community responsible for design authority. You'll collaborate with the Product Manager and Business Lead to deliver a balanced plan that considers UX, cost, time, and quality. And you'll be delivering the architecture and systems engineering elements of the product plan throughout its whole life cycle.

    This will include:

  • Understanding the problem and shaping the solution
  • Tailoring the systems engineering and architecture processes to address product risks.
  • Developing, maintaining, and communicating the vision, architecture and technology roadmap for the product
  • Developing high-level designs, solution outlines, and key design decisions
  • Managing the technology risk and design as the product evolves
  • Supporting integration with other products and release to service.

    • About You

    Ideally, you'll have: led significant elements of product and system delivery and change; been a technical domain subject matter expert; worked as a Solution Architect or part of a solution architecture team for complicated solutions; experience of the application of enterprise and domains architecture, influencing stakeholders and conducting trades across requirements and solution spaces; knowledge of multiple architecture and delivery frameworks and experience of embedding such tools and techniques.

    You'll also have a range of soft skills to support communication and decision-making including curiosity, teamwork and problem solving. You'll be a strong communicator and influencer, having successfully negotiated trades across requirements and solution spaces. You'll line manage junior solution architects and contractors supporting delivery – so you'll be confident leading multi-disciplinary teams. Plus, you will be committed to continual learning and development.

    Training and Development

    As you develop, grow, and maintain your technical skills, you will have the opportunity to progress through the Government Digital and Data Profession Capability Framework (formerly known as Digital, Data and Technology (DDaT) ). You'll need to regularly demonstrate and accredit your skills based on the framework.

    At MI6, we're proud to offer an inclusive and supportive working environment. As an organisation that values and nurtures talent, we are committed to helping you fulfil your potential. In fact, you could spend around a third of your time on training and development. We're committed to developing our staff and recognise this will look different for everyone, so we'll work with you to build your skills and help you plan your future career path.

    When you join, you'll have an induction so that you can settle in and get a full understanding of how your work will impact our mission. Then, there will be continuing opportunities to receive tailored training, coaching, and mentoring. And throughout your career with us, you will have access to a wide range of online and classroom learning, as well as external accredited training options. These include industry recognised qualifications such as CISSP (Certified Information Systems Security Professional) or similar.

    Rewards and Benefits

    You'll receive a starting salary of £75,077 to £83,677, dependent on skills and experience*.

    Other benefits include:

  • 25 Days Annual Leave automatically rising to 30 days after 5 years' service, and an additional 10.5-day public and privilege holidays.
  • Opportunities to be recognised through our employee performance scheme.
  • Interest-free season ticket loan
  • Excellent pension scheme
  • Cycle to work scheme.
  • Facilities such as a gym, restaurant, and on-site coffee bar at some locations
  • Paid parental and adoption leave.

    • * Salary Detail: Most new starters can expect to start at the lower end of our pay range. Candidates who both meet our higher competency requirements and can demonstrate evidence of our very specialised technical work can expect to receive a higher starting salary which will include pensionable and non-pensionable elements.

    Equal Opportunities

    At MI6, diversity and inclusion are critical to our mission. To protect the UK, we need a truly diverse workforce that reflects the society we serve. This includes diversity in every sense of the word: those with different backgrounds, ages, ethnicities, gender identities, sexual orientations, ways of thinking and those with disabilities or neurodivergent conditions. We therefore welcome and encourage applications from everyone, including those from groups that are under-represented in our workforce such as women, those from an ethnic minority background, people with disabilities and those from low socio-economic backgrounds.
