Working with the AA Me mahi tahi tatou ki AA
For over 120 years the AA have been helping Kiwis on their adventures! Today, we're one of New Zealand's most respected and trusted brands.
From our humble beginnings as a motoring enthusiast's club, the New Zealand AA (Automobile Association) has grown into a large, dynamic organisation offering many services and products to more than a million Members.
We’re now seeking an experienced Enterprise Solution Architect to lead the design and delivery of scalable, secure, and strategically aligned enterprise solutions for the AA.
What You'll Be Doing Mō te Tūranga
This role is central to shaping the architectural direction of the organization. It involves hands-on guidance of solution delivery, the development of strategic roadmaps, reference architectures, and high-level end-to-end solution designs that align with business strategy and technology capability needs. You’ll work closely with senior stakeholders to define and understand the problem space, ensuring architectural responses are grounded in strategic context and business requirements. It also includes designing scalable and secure enterprise solutions, assessing and recommending architectural options, and ensuring consistency with enterprise standards and long-term strategy. You’ll collaborate with delivery teams, contribute to the evolution of the enterprise architecture through enduring artefacts, and promote architectural thinking across business and technology communities. Additionally, the role involves facilitating workshops, advising stakeholders, and managing relationships with external vendors to ensure alignment and value delivery.
About You Mōu
Your proven track record in enterprise solution architecture within corporate or consulting environments is key to your success. You bring strong analytical, design, and documentation skills, along with the ability to quickly understand business strategies, plans, and requirements. A solid grasp of Enterprise and Solution Architecture approaches is essential, as is the ability to communicate clearly and effectively with a wide range of stakeholders, from technical teams to executive leadership. You confidently build strong relationships, challenge the status quo constructively, and engage in robust discussions while maintaining alignment and engagement. Preferably you’ll have a working knowledge in Agile delivery and across multiple IT domains such as Cloud and Infrastructure, Data and Analytics, Cyber Security, and Project or Programme Management, with experience in business and technology areas like Sales, Service, Product Management, and Digital Platforms.
What We Offer Ngā āhuatanga kei a mātou
Free AA Membership for you and your whānau
NZAA Super Scheme with 2% employer contributions on top of 3% Kiwisaver
A day off for your birthday
Hybrid working arrangement
Training available / career development

Here, we offer a lot more than roadside assistance. We're constantly evolving and advancing into new businesses, offering new challenges and a range of opportunities.
If you're passionate about shaping enterprise architecture and thrive in a collaborative, strategic environment, we’d love to hear from you. Apply now to help drive innovative solutions that align technology with business outcomes and make a lasting impact across the AA.
Our teams celebrate diversity and believe that everyone should be able to bring their true selves to work every day. We want you to feel comfortable to be your authentic self throughout the recruitment process, please feel free to let us know if there is anything you need to allow you to participate equitably.
We are aware that there will be candidates who are interested in the role but may only feel comfortable to apply if they have ticked all the boxes. We want you to know that if you feel like you don't meet all the requirements, please still get in touch. We'd love to korero to see if you might be a great fit for the role.
