Hiring Data Architects

HHiring Data Architects can be challenging because the role often means different things in different organisations.

In one business, a Data Architect may focus on cloud migration. In another, they may lead data modelling, governance, platform design, integration or enterprise-wide data strategy.

KDR supports employers by helping clarify the role, define the required skills and understand candidate availability. We can also advise on salary expectations, job titles, market demand and how to position the opportunity to experienced data architecture candidates.

We support permanent recruitment, contract recruitment, executive search and talent advisory projects across data architecture and wider data leadership.
