IT Architect

Within Sandvik Group, we’re passionate about development and advanced technology, and we always aim to offer the best possible experience for our customers. Right now, we’re taking an exciting step in transforming our market-leading business even further within the area of stone crushers and screening equipment for the mining and construction industries. We do this by founding an independent, growth-oriented and customer-centric Business Area by the name of Sandvik Rock Processing Solutions (SRP). A place of inclusive collaboration, agility and innovation - where we nurture an ever-growing portfolio of products and solutions based on the needs of the market, and where pioneering software technology meets the core of manufacturing. 
We’re now looking for a business-minded IT Architect for this new business area – an entrepreneurial person who really thrives in a changing environment. In return, we offer you an exciting digital arena, where new challenges, modern technology, teamwork and problem-solving are all part of our culture!
Let’s talk about your mission
Your main mission is to support the business needs, requirements and strategies of the business area from an IT perspective – developing architecture and application designs while ensuring that information in relevant systems is used and shared in an optimal way. You have a central role in providing input to various stakeholders throughout the organization – which, under normal circumstances, includes some occasional travel days for representative matters.
With innovation and efficiency in mind, you develop and maintain the IT architecture in a cost effective and sustainable way, according to the business requirements as well as the architectural strategy and standards. To capture requirements, you organize meetings and workshops with the stakeholders. You create short- and long-term plans, designing the end-to-end target architecture and information flows. To make sure the business requirements are met, you support and guide the divisions across SRP in the design, selection and implementation process of new applications. With a holistic view, you identify possible synergies throughout the organization, including promoting shared application solutions where it brings value in reducing cost and risk. You closely collaborate with solution architects, the application manager and project management to ensure a realistic roadmap with efficient use of budget and resources.
The location for this job is preferably in Svedala, but it can be open for discussion.
And what about you?
Your career consists of ten years of more in similar IT roles, and with a background of leading through others, you have a confident approach when interacting with different stakeholders and taking initiatives for cross-functional improvement actions. We believe you have a relevant IT degree and are fluent in English, as we work in a global setting.
Change, the possibility to create and to be a part of something brand new is something that excites you, and your social qualities makes it easy for you to really drive change and get the right people involved. With a way of seeing things from a wide perspective, you find truly innovative and effective solutions that stand out and keeps us successful.
