Old Toronto, Canada TRSS Full time

The Business Architecture Team plays a critical role in supporting Thomson Reuters through its transformation to an operating, AI and content-driven technology company.

  • Develop high-level business designs, including the delivery of business requirements, service blueprints, business processes, standardized definitions, etc.
  • Work with other business architects and cross-functional groups to deliver business designs.
  • Run SME interviews and facilitate workshops with key stakeholders to define and validate designs and business requirements.
  • Use critical thinking, industry best practices, and assessments to manage ambiguity and to challenge the current state and drive continuous improvements.
  • Synthesize different and sometimes opposing views and facilitate conversations to drive standardization and simplification.
  • Analyze data to run impact assessment of proposed changes.
  • Plan and manage projects independently and ensure the project activities are in alignment with broader programs, portfolios.
  • Continuously manage key stakeholder groups and provide recurring updates to our main sponsors and leadership.
  • Report key updates to the Business Architecture leadership team.
  • Act as a champion for high-quality and consistent design activities across TR.
  • Establish, validate, and measure key metrics to track impacts to achieve intended business results.
  • Continuously improve our business architecture and business design methodologies and frameworks.
