You will help drive the transition toward a more data-driven Agria and explore the opportunities to transform our business with AI.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Defining goals, frameworks, and guidelines for our technology transformation and our vision of a future-proof IT landscape that will enable us to excel the customer and employee experience and drive efficiency.
• Align architectural target states and roadmaps with business strategy and set roadmaps taking us toward value-driven deliveries.
• Ensuring that our architecture complies with current policies, regulations, security requirements, and contracts while enabling high level of stability and availability.
• Ensuring that Agria’s architectural vision, target state and transformation plan are understood and applied at all levels through education, communication, and coaching.
• Establishing necessary processes, tools, and methods for effective architectural work and the realization of our transformation.
• Contributing to the strategic planning of our digital transformation and fostering an understanding of technology’s potential at the intersection of IT and business.
• Enabling proactive decision-making and business-driven prioritization in our digital transformation to support our European expansion.
• Contributing to sound and purpose-driven architectural governance across the Länsförsäkringar Group, ensuring Agria’s interests in shared IT capabilities are met through participation in central forums.

You possess strong problem-solving skills and have worked with technology driven transformations and multi-sourced, best-of-breed and custom-built architectures.
