About the company

Talent Street is supporting a large Queensland government agency in appointing an Enterprise Architect on an initial 6-month contract with a strong likelihood of extension. The agency is in the middle of a major digital-health transformation program, so the work is high-impact and highly visible.

About the role

Sitting within the central Digital Architecture team and reporting to the Senior Director, you’ll own the end-to-end technology blueprint that underpins statewide clinical and business systems. Key focuses include:

• Developing and maintaining enterprise-wide architecture, standards, and roadmaps (cloud, infrastructure, apps, data, security).

• Reviewing new project proposals to ensure they’re strategic, cost-effective, and secure.

• Guiding solution architects and project teams through best-practice patterns and design oversight.

• Driving lean, agile, and sustainable architecture principles across a federated environment.

• Influencing C-suite, clinicians, and vendors to align investments with business objectives.

What you need

To be successful, you’ll be able to demonstrate:

• 5+ years’ experience in enterprise architecture/design within large, complex organisations.

• A track record of setting technology strategy that delivers fit-for-purpose, value-for-money solutions.

• Strong stakeholder engagement skills—you translate tech speak for executives, clinicians, and vendors alike.

• Experience leading cloud, infrastructure, and application-modernisation initiatives.

• Deep understanding of architecture frameworks (TOGAF or similar) and governance processes.

• Strategic planning capability plus the agility to balance quick wins with long-term roadmaps.

• (Nice to have) Exposure to public-sector or health-sector environments.

Benefits

• Chance to shape some of the most complex, statewide digital-health projects in Queensland.

• Hybrid working — 4 days from home, 1 day on-site (Fortitude Valley).

• High probability of contract extension on a multi-year program.
