Building a High-Impact Solution Architecture Team for a Global Airline

Problem

A major global airline was embarking on a complex digital transformation, requiring the alignment of modern e-commerce platforms with legacy ticket-booking systems. The programme involved multiple systems, stakeholders, and dependencies, creating significant delivery and change-management risk.

Solution

JP Search was engaged to build a specialist team of senior Solution Architects with deep industry and technology expertise. Beyond technical capability, the brief demanded strong stakeholder management and communication skills to drive alignment and influence across multiple business functions.

Outcome

A highly targeted shortlist was delivered within a tight timeframe, resulting in four successful hires within six weeks, providing the airline with the leadership and capability required to progress its transformation with confidence.

“This assignment was about far more than filling roles. The airline needed architects who could operate at the intersection of complex technology, commercial outcomes, and organisational change. By leveraging our long-standing network and taking a forensic approach to the brief, we were able to deliver a team capable of driving meaningful transformation at pace.”
