While you’ll have heard our name, there’s a lot you probably don’t know about NEXT. Like how we create most of our systems ourselves – whether it’s a website, mobile app or application. What’s more, we’re growing. Fast. And it’s the kind of growth and investment that is exciting for everyone in our business.
Our huge warehouse estate in Yorkshire is held together by the Warehouse team, the warehouses have an enormous amount of tech that allow us to receive, store, pick and pack items for our customers - handling everything from socks to sofas! The Warehouse team focuses heavily on automation which includes 40 miles of conveyor linking everything together across our sites, hundreds of storage and picking robots - a very fast moving, continuously changing part of NEXT Technology.
The role
Technology drives what we do. Plain and simple. As we’re going through a huge change as a business, we need a solid team with us who are committed to driving our systems forward.
As an Applications Architect, you’ll be an important part of this. Your focus will be to drive collaborative Standards across the whole of Next Technology, ensuring synergy across the technology design, approach and platforms. And you’ll do it through different technologies and strategies:

- Experienced in effectively working in a collaborative manner in a large scale, fast paced environment within a multifunctional technical team
- Design history with on-prem and Azure approach to deliveries
- Modern presentation approaches including C4, with use of EA tooling

- Micro Service approach to problems
You’ll assist in the creation of High Level Solution Design, work with Delivery Managers, Stakeholders and Development Teams to build the right solution to a defined Business requirement whilst evolving and establishing Patterns, Best Practices and Standards to be used across Next Technology
You’ll be doing all this from our automated warehouse estate in Pontefract. A fast-paced, encouraging and supportive environment in which everyone brings an energy and a commitment to delivering for our customers and their own careers. Bring your energy. Play to your strengths. Make things bigger and better than before. Let’s Take It On.
