• Act as a key interface between internal teams, bid teams, IT delivery, and consortium partners.
• Facilitate workshops, design sessions, and structured reviews to gather and validate requirements.
• Constructively challenge assumptions, balancing operational needs with technical feasibility.
• Support architects with solution design alignment, impact assessments, and trade‑off analysis.
• Provide clarification during build, integration, deployment, and service transition phases.
• Contribute to UAT planning, operational readiness, and acceptance activities.
• Ensure compliance with Defence security, governance, assurance, and change‑control standards.
