Lead the Digital Architecture Behind a National Infrastructure Transformation
Location: Scotland (Flexible)
Salary: Starting at £64,680 up to £75,000 + Car Allowance + 38 Days Leave + LGPS Pension
Job Type: Permanent | Level: Senior Leadership

Are you a visionary architect ready to shape the future of critical national services? We're seeking a Digital Architecture Manager to lead end-to-end solution design across IT, OT, and cloud environments for one of Scotland's most vital infrastructure organisations.

This is more than a job - it's an opportunity to drive digital innovation that directly impacts millions, from smart infrastructure and AI-enabled services to real-time operational decision-making. You'll be at the forefront of a £40-£50 million digital investment portfolio, delivering resilient, future-ready solutions that underpin both business and environmental outcomes.

The Role

As Digital Architecture Manager, you'll take charge of solution-level design and governance across cloud platforms (Azure), operational technology, enterprise applications, and AI tooling. You'll ensure all technical solutions are secure, scalable, compliant, and aligned with strategic goals.

Working within the Digital Strategy & Platforms function, you'll translate business needs into enterprise-grade technical blueprints, lead a team of architects, and champion modern design principles such as security-by-design, DevOps, and cloud-native development.

This is a hands-on leadership role where you'll influence at all levels - from senior stakeholders to delivery teams - ensuring seamless integration across IT and OT systems, including Microsoft 365, Power Platform, and advanced AI services.

What You'll Bring

Proven experience leading architecture across large-scale digital transformation projects.

Deep technical knowledge of Azure, enterprise applications, cloud-native design, and cybersecurity best practices.

Strong understanding of regulated environments and compliance frameworks (NIS2, ISO27001).

Experience integrating IT with OT environments, including edge computing and IoT/SCADA.

Leadership skills to mentor architects and steer cross-functional technical delivery.

Knowledge of modern governance practices: DevOps, FinOps, cloud cost optimisation, and automation.

Certifications such as TOGAF, Azure Solutions Architect, or ITIL would be highly desirable. Experience in water, energy, or utilities sectors is a distinct advantage.

What's on Offer

Salary from £64,680, £75,000 with potential for progression

Monthly car allowance

38 days holiday (including public holidays)

Career-average Local Government Pension Scheme

Life assurance and flexible working options

Influence over a major national digital transformation

Where to Advertise Edge Computing Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Where to advertise edge computing jobs UK in 2026: the specialist boards and channels that reach embedded, IoT, 5G MEC and edge AI engineering talent. Edge computing sits at the intersection of embedded systems, networking, cloud infrastructure and real-time data processing — and the professionals who specialise in it are a small, highly technical community not well served by general job boards. Candidates with genuine edge and IoT expertise are rarely browsing general platforms, and roles in this space are frequently misunderstood or miscategorised by non-specialist recruiters. This guide, published by EdgeComputingJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise edge computing roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Edge Computing Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Edge Computing Jobs UK 2026: roles, salaries and the IoT, 5G and edge AI hiring trends shaping UK edge computing careers over the next three years. Edge computing is quietly becoming one of the most consequential technology shifts of the decade — and the jobs market is starting to reflect that. As the limitations of centralised cloud infrastructure become apparent across industries that require real-time processing, ultra-low latency, and data sovereignty, the demand for professionals who can design, build, and manage computing at the edge has moved from niche to mainstream. But the edge computing jobs market of 2026 is not yet the mature, well-defined landscape that cloud computing has become. It is still forming. New architectures are emerging, standards are being established, and the range of industries deploying edge infrastructure is expanding rapidly — from manufacturing and telecommunications to healthcare, retail, autonomous vehicles, and smart cities. That creates a particular kind of opportunity for job seekers: the chance to build deep expertise in a discipline that is growing faster than the talent pipeline serving it. The candidates who will thrive over the next three years are those who understand where edge computing is heading — which use cases are driving commercial deployment, which technologies are defining the architecture of distributed systems, and how the skills required to work at the edge differ meaningfully from those that served professionals well in centralised cloud environments. This article breaks down what the UK edge computing jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career ahead of the curve.
