Job details

About Us You know New World,PAK’nSAVEand FourSquare,right? That’s us! We are one of NZ’s biggest companies, you just don’t know it, because in true Kiwi style – we are humble about it (apart from right now maybe)! Our Support Centre is 1,000 people strong, which includes 300+ IT employees, who all play a vital role in supporting our network of 330+ stores across the North Island. We’re on an epic journey to ensure New Zealanders get more out of life, with ‘data’ as the lifeblood of this evolution. We're not content with the status quo; we're here to shake things up, and we need bold, innovative minds like yours to help lead the charge. The Role Imagine joining a team leading an entire organisation towards a data-driven universe. As a DnA Solution Architect, your primary mission will be to impactfully lead the delivery of greater business value, through data, for our Co-op. You’ll be spearheading efforts to swiftly reduce technical debt within our SAP environment and designing the foundations of a transformation of the way we ‘do data’ that will power us for the next decade. Envision yourself as a driving force for transformation, taking the helm to streamline our SAP environment within a comprehensive data ecosystem. Your leadership will help propel us toward an era of profound change, where every individual has seamless access to the data they desire to excel in their roles, fuelling our collective success. Join our leadership crew and be a driving force in shaping the direction of our Data and Analytics (DnA) team. We're all about teamwork here, collaborating across functions to leading the way for the Co-op in advanced data and analytics. Your role will be about helping to foster a culture of excellence and clear communication. We need someone who can rally the team members, ensure we hit our strategic objectives and motivate us to do better, always. We're big on trust and influence too. You'll be the go-to person for making sure our strategic decisions are solid, risks are managed, and our data processes are slick and efficient. In this role, agility is key. We want someone who can deliver outcomes with speed and simplicity, all while keeping an eye on quality. But it's not just about getting things done—it's about getting them done better and faster. You'll be championing authoritative technical leadership and constantly finding ways to improve our processes. Expect a bit of everything in this role—from gathering requirements in workshops to ensuring top-notch data security and governance practices. And let's not forget about collaboration. You'll be working closely with our Enterprise Data Architect to make sure our designs are on point and aligned with our business goals. But hey, it's not all serious business. We believe in having fun along the way. So if you're ready to roll up your sleeves, inspire your team, and make a real impact, we want to hear from you. Let's do great things together! About You Are you a data-driven trailblazer with a knack for turning complexity into clarity? Do you thrive in dynamic environments where innovation and problem-solving go hand in hand? If so, you might just be the perfect fit! We're seeking someone who's not just a technical expert but a strategic thinker, someone who can translate business needs into actionable plans and lead the charge on innovative, SAP-based, solutions. If you're passionate about pushing boundaries, staying ahead of the curve, and making a meaningful impact in the world of data analytics, then we want to hear from you. • Proven leadership chops? You'll need to be a master at building relationships and influencing your team, stakeholders, and senior leaders. • Communication whiz? Whether it's writing, speaking, or presenting, you've got a knack for getting your point across loud and clear. • Got a history of rocking it in strategic IT roles? Even better if you've done your thing in big companies, especially in the retail or customer-focused world. • Team player? Absolutely. But you're also not afraid to take the lead when needed. • Get stuff done? That's your middle name. You're all about delivering top-notch work at lightning speed, while also bringing others along the journey with you. • Curious and always hungry to learn? We love someone who's constantly looking for new possibilities to do what’s right and not simply what’s ‘easy’. • You've got experience advising senior stakeholders and influencing big decisions. That's a big plus. • And let's not forget about the money side of things. You're savvy when it comes to the bottom line and understand the value of IT investments. • Oh, and when it comes to SAP, you're basically a wizard. Data architecture, S4 HANA, SAP BW, you name it, you've mastered it. • And if you've got experience with SAP Datasphere and cloud platforms like Google Cloud, well, that's the cherry on top. We'd love to have you on board! What’s in it for you? In return, we offer a competitive salary package, including fully subsidised health insurance, flexible working, free parking, participation in the company superannuation fund and birthday leave and long service leave! We also offer lots of learning and development opportunities to help build your career. Experience awesome. Achieve Awesome. Be awesomely you. We’re proud to have a focus on Diversity & Inclusion here at Foodies and welcome applications from you all regardless of who you are or what you do. We welcome courageous behaviour, encourage togetherness, inspire our people to be their best selves in our Foodies whānau, but most importantly we celebrate our people - our taonga, every day for being uniquely them. #J-18808-Ljbffr
