  • Staying abreast of industry dynamics and the impact of trends on an organisation, to identify and formulate need for change in enterprise architecture.

  • Co-creating a client’s Enterprise Architecture vision, strategy, and roadmap, ensuring it aligns with business objectives.

  • Developing recommendations and translating them into actionable roadmaps for complex and large technology environments using Lean and Agile enterprise principles.

  • Developing value cases to support executive decision making for investment in proposed transformation roadmaps, aligned with client’s strategic planning cycles.

  • Leading the creation of Enterprise Architecture blueprints, demonstrating the e2e technology landscape including applications, integrations, and data.

  • Conducting end-to-end vendor assessments across technology, vendor and or data platforms.

  • Working between the business and technology client & 3rd-party stakeholders to effectively formulate, communicate and conclude key architectural decisions.

  • Providing EA governance to clients throughout their transformation programme to ensure that new initiatives comply with the set guidelines, without jeopardising business objectives.

  • Lead in designing and governing enterprise data platform capabilities including integration and automation.

  • Leading the creation of Enterprise Architecture Operating model definition and implementation roadmaps.

  • Completing Enterprise Architecture maturity assessments on behalf of clients.

We are looking for individuals who:

  • Work within or across one of the architectural domains; Business, Application, Data and Technology.

  • Have experience working on large complex digital reinvention and/or transformation programmes.

  • Have experience in the Banking industry and familiar across the core banking platforms.

  • Are inquisitive and keen to explore areas of emerging technologies (AI, Data, Quantum, Robotics, Cloud, etc.).

  • Have experience working with hyper scale technology platforms (e.g: SAP, Workday, Oracle, Salesforce, and the hyper scalers).

  • Have proven stakeholder management and communication skills, leveraged to influence and persuade on key architectural decisions.

Quantum Computing Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Need To Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK quantum computing hiring has shifted from credential‑first screening to capability‑driven evaluation. Employers now value provable contributions across the stack—algorithms & applications, compilation & optimisation, circuit synthesis, control & calibration, hardware characterisation, error mitigation/correction (QEM/QEC), verification/benchmarking, and hybrid HPC/quantum workflows—plus the ability to communicate trade‑offs, costs and feasibility to non‑quantum teams. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews and how to prepare—especially for quantum algorithm engineers, quantum software/compilers, experimentalists, quantum control & firmware, cryo/readout engineers, quantum error correction researchers, verification/benchmarking specialists, and quantum‑adjacent product managers. Who this is for: Quantum algorithm/applications engineers, compiler/optimisation engineers, control/firmware engineers, experimental physicists & hardware engineers (superconducting, trapped ion, photonic, spin/neutral atom), cryogenics & RF/microwave, QEC researchers, verification/benchmarking specialists, quantum‑HPC orchestration engineers, and product/BD roles in the UK quantum ecosystem.

Why Quantum Computing Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Quantum computing has long been considered an elite subfield of physics and computer science. But as quantum technologies advance—from fault-tolerant hardware to quantum algorithms and quantum cryptography—they’re moving closer to real applications in finance, materials simulation, optimisation, cryptography and more. As this transition happens, UK quantum computing careers are becoming increasingly multidisciplinary. Quantum systems are no longer just the domain of physicists and quantum software engineers. If quantum technologies are to be trusted, adopted and regulated, professionals must also incorporate expertise in law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design. In practice, quantum computing projects now intersect with data governance, risk, human interaction, explainability and communication. In this article, we’ll explore why quantum computing careers in the UK are shifting to multidisciplinary roles, how these five supporting fields intersect with quantum work, and what job-seekers & employers should do to keep up in this evolving frontier.

Quantum Computing Team Structures Explained: Who Does What in a Modern Quantum Department

Quantum computing has shifted from lab curiosity to the next frontier of high-impact computing. Across the UK, universities, national labs, start-ups, and established tech and finance firms are building quantum teams to explore algorithms, design hardware, and deliver quantum-ready software. As momentum grows, so does the need for clear, robust team structures. Because quantum R&D spans physics, engineering, computer science, and product, ambiguity about who does what can slow progress, increase risk, and inflate costs. This guide maps the typical roles in a modern quantum computing department, how they collaborate across the research-to-product lifecycle, skills and backgrounds UK employers expect, indicative salary ranges, common pitfalls, and practical ways to structure teams that move fast without breaking science.
