You will bring structure and transparency to complex business challenges, helping teams understand not only what we are doing, but also why we are doing it and what value we aim to create.A key part of the role will be to further develop and maintain VFS' business architecture knowledge base, framework and common language. This includes shaping and connecting key business architecture artifacts such as product and business models, value streams and business capability maps. You will use these tools to create a shared understanding of how the business operates today, where we want to go and what capabilities are required to get there.

You will work closely with stakeholders across the organization throughout the initiative lifecycle, helping teams define scope, objectives, expected business value and required capabilities while ensuring alignment with strategic priorities.

As a trusted advisor, you will facilitate collaboration and create a common understanding between business and technology stakeholders. You will operate across functions, cultures and organizational boundaries, helping teams navigate complexity and accelerate execution while maximizing business impact.

Who are you?

You are a strategic and collaborative professional who enjoys working at the intersection of business strategy, organizational capabilities and technology. You are comfortable navigating complexity and creating structure where different stakeholders, perspectives and priorities need to come together. You have experience working with business architecture, enterprise architecture, business transformation or a closely related discipline, and you are comfortable operating across business and technology environments. You have a strong understanding of the BIZBOK Guide and business architecture principles, and you naturally think in terms of value streams, capabilities and business outcomes rather than processes alone. You are able to recognize patterns and cut through operational noise to identify core business challenges. By translating contextualized business language into a standardized business language, you help the organization distinguish truly unique innovations from recurring challenges that can be addressed through proven solutions. You have a global mindset and are comfortable navigating complex, decentralized organizations and influencing stakeholders across functions, markets and cultures.
