Solution Enterprise Architect - Maximo (Operational Asset Management)

Maximo Architect – Contract | Hybrid (Remote + South East England) Join a major transformation programme at a leading UK infrastructure organisation. We’re working with a high-profile client in the utilities sector that is undergoing a significant digital transformation. As part of this journey, they’re looking for a Maximo Enterprise/Solution Architect to help shape the future of their asset and work management capabilities. This is a contract role with real influence—ideal for someone who wants to be embedded in delivery, lead architectural decisions, and drive meaningful change.

Why this role? This is a pivotal time for the programme. Two major rollouts have already been delivered, and the next phase includes a full Maximo cloud migration and the expansion of work management functionality across the business. You’ll be working closely with a forward-thinking architecture lead who values autonomy, practical problem-solving, and breadth of experience. You’ll be trusted to lead—not just follow.

What you’ll be doing

• Supporting the migration of Maximo from on-premise to cloud, including integrations and reporting.
• Designing and documenting high-level and component-level architecture.
• Collaborating with delivery teams to ensure architectural decisions are embedded and executed.
• Acting as a trusted advisor to stakeholders, helping align technology with business processes.
• Contributing to a roadmap of future Maximo and asset management initiatives.

What we’re looking for

• Strong experience with IBM Maximo in complex, asset-heavy environments.
• A background in sectors such as utilities, transport, infrastructure, or similar.
• A blend of technical depth and business awareness—you understand how systems support operations.
• Experience working in hybrid delivery teams and navigating stakeholder environments.
• Someone who is resilient, proactive, and comfortable working in a fast-moving, evolving organisation.

The details

• Contract: 6 months initially, with strong potential to extend.
• IR35: Inside.
• Location: Hybrid – mostly remote, with occasional on-site presence in the South East (approx. 2 days/month).
• Interview: One stage with the architecture lead and a senior colleague.
• Start: ASAP – but we’re happy to wait for the right person.
