Chief Enterprise Architect: Sustainability, Agriculture and Communication - Aarhus

Location: Viby J, DK

Are you passionate about impacting Arla’s sustainability agenda on a global scale, setting strategic direction for IT solutions transforming Arla’s sustainability journey? And are you an expert in IT architecture and strategic technical leadership? If yes, you may be interested in this position as Chief Enterprise Architect.

At Arla Foods, we are committed to a sustainable future. As Chief Enterprise Architect for Agriculture, Sustainability, and Communication (ASC), you will play a pivotal role in setting strategic direction toward advancing sustainability initiatives, supporting our farmer owners on their pursue for reaching our climate goals, and providing corporate communications with future proof platforms.

“Our new colleague will take part in an exciting journey transforming our IT solutions for sustainability and for our farmer owners. An example of a future attention area is Nature, which extends our ambition with also focusing on non-emission aspects of sustainability, as supplement to current scope of Arla FarmAhead Technology which has a strong attention to scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions.”

How you will make an impact

As a visionary Chief Enterprise Architect, you will integrate your comprehensive understanding of IT architecture with the unique challenges and opportunities in the ASC domain that handles Arla’s combined sustainability journey. Arla Foods is a cooperative - which entails a set of unique capabilities, managed through ASC, e.g. Milk settlement which is the process of paying our farmer owners for their milk. Across ASC, you will collaborate with stakeholders to identify suitable IT platforms that close potential gaps between the existing IT landscape and the future needs. By aligning IT with ASC's strategic ambitions, you will guide both ASC and Arla IT toward innovative solutions balancing efficiency, sustainability, and quality.

More specifically you will:

  1. Inspire future opportunities with an offset in existing beliefs and ideas, growing small ideas into transformative strategies
  2. Maximize opportunities to foster a data-driven mindset to advance Arla’s Nature agenda
  3. Act as a trusted advisor contributing with deep understanding of opportunities and risks
  4. Challenge the status quo and drive meaningful change in ASC
  5. Develop long-lasting architectures that are sustainable over time, founded in modular, flexible and scalable principles

What will make you successful

You are a technically adept IT enterprise architect and communicator who thrives in dynamic environments. Your ability to simplify complex business operating models, capabilities and technical content is crucial for setting clear strategic direction for business and IT stakeholders. A vital aspect of this role is daily collaboration. Strategically this is e.g. towards senior stakeholders in the ASC organization and with the IT Solutions Director for Commercial, Marketing & Innovation, & ASC, who has the overall responsibility of delivery of the project portfolio. Architectural direction setting is through close collaboration with the Release Train Architect (RTA) from the ASC agile release train, who ensures that strategic IT directions are realized, with the RTA owning and securing well-crafted IT solutions across all ASC projects.

What do we offer?

We offer an inspiring workplace where you will be able to grow and learn. You will be working with skilled colleagues and be part of an IT organization that focuses on bringing the highest value to the business in an agile setup. We’re committed to professional development and promoting from within. Our positive and collaborative culture will bring out the best in you.

Would you like to join us?

If you want to drive Arla's global IT platforms for ASC and help shape the industry, then seize this exciting opportunity. Please apply as soon as possible as we will process applications on a continuous basis and close the recruitment once the right candidate is found.

Please note that due to the Christmas holiday, the recruitment process may take longer than usual. Therefore, please anticipate a delay in our response. Thank you for your patience and continued interest in our organization.
