About the Role

We are looking for a Senior Business Architect to lead the design of end to end business processes and future state operating models for credit initiatives. The role owns process architecture from As Is validation through To Be design and is accountable for producing SI ready artefacts that support downstream implementation. The Business Architect acts as the design authority for process, decision logic, and operating model alignment, working independently with business and technology stakeholders.

What You'll Be Doing

• Review and validate existing As Is process artefacts, including third party documentation.
• Design the future state (To Be) operating model, including roles, responsibilities, decision points, and controls.
• Design high quality BPMN 2.0 process models intended for implementation by a SI.
• Define workflow orchestration concepts suitable for enterprise BPM platforms, preferably Camunda or similar BPM engines.
• Make architectural decisions on process boundaries, orchestration scope, and dependencies.
• Run and lead discovery workshops with relevant stakeholders.
• Produce SI ready design artefacts, including BPMN diagrams, process architecture views, and documented design rationale.

What We're Looking For Essential

• Direct experience with credit processes.
• Proven experience as a Business Architect, Process Architect, or Senior process led Business Analyst on large scale transformation initiatives.
• Strong hands on experience designing end to end processes in regulated environments (banking, credit, financial services strongly preferred).
• Deep practical experience with BPMN 2.0 (not just conceptual modelling).
• Experience working with enterprise workflow / BPM platforms, preferably Camunda or similar BPM engines.
• Experience producing implementation ready design artefacts for system integrator handover.
• Comfortable owning design decisions and acting as the design authority for process architecture.

Desirable

• Exposure to Camunda based architectures.
