Envitia is a UK-based software and services company that helps organisations unlock the full value of their data to make better, faster decisions. With over 30 years of experience, we specialise in delivering innovative software products, solutions, and consultancy services that transform complex data challenges into actionable insights.

Our mission is to empower customers across defence, government, and national security sectors to harness the power of data — from geospatial intelligence to advanced analytics and AI integration. We are proud to be a trusted partner to UK defence and government organisations, delivering technology that drives smarter, data-driven outcomes.

We’re also delighted to have been named one of The Sunday Times Top 100 Medium-Sized Companies, a recognition of our commitment to innovation, collaboration, and creating an outstanding workplace where people can thrive.

At Envitia, we help some of the UK's most important organisations unlock the value of their data to make better decisions, improve operational outcomes, and deliver mission-critical services. As a Data Architect, you'll play a key role in shaping how data is managed, governed, integrated, and exploited across complex public sector and defence environments.

Working within our Consulting division, you'll lead the design and delivery of modern data architectures that enable organisations to turn data into a strategic asset. You'll collaborate with clients, delivery teams, and technical specialists to define data strategies, establish architectural patterns, and deliver innovative solutions across cloud, analytics, AI, and data platform technologies.

This is a highly influential role that combines technical leadership, client engagement, and business transformation. You'll work directly with senior stakeholders to understand complex challenges, develop robust data solutions, and guide programmes from early concept and discovery through to implementation and operational adoption.

Beyond client delivery, you'll help shape Envitia's growing data capability by contributing to our methodologies, frameworks, accelerators, and thought leadership. You'll also support pre-sales and business development activities, helping define winning technical solutions and representing Envitia at industry events, customer engagements, and conferences.

If you're passionate about designing scalable data ecosystems, solving complex business problems, and delivering meaningful outcomes for Defence and Central Government clients, we'd love to hear from you.
