Why this could interest you
Chance to shape and refresh the data architecture for a large, complex organisation
Multi-year stability while still on a strong day rate
Focus on conceptual and logical data modelling rather than hands-on engineering
Redocumenting and updating existing enterprise data warehouse models – creating fresh diagrams, ensuring robust version control, and putting together clear how-to guides for colleagues using enterprise architecture tools.
Data cataloguing & lineage
Working closely with data category management to catalogue data, document flows, and map how data moves across applications using tools such as Sparx Enterprise Architect or Orbus iServer (to be confirmed).
Conceptual & logical data modelling support
Providing conceptual data models for new initiatives, smaller entity relationship models, and assurance of physical and logical data models across projects.
What our client is looking for
Strong experience with data modelling tools (e.g. ER/Studio, ERwin, PowerDesigner, Sparx EA, etc.)
Background in large, complex organisations – e.g. public sector, government, construction, finance, or telecoms – dealing with substantial and complex datasets
A clear conceptual understanding of data modelling and data architecture – they are not looking for a data engineer or full-stack data architect
Desirable: experience with Sparx Enterprise Architect
Ability to work on site in Birmingham at least 3 days per week
