Then, you might be our new Delivery Lead for Enterprise Architecture in Strategy & Transformation at Novo Nordisk.

About the Role 
As Delivery Lead for Enterprise Architecture, you will play a key role in driving the development and implementation of our Enterprise Architecture (EA) products across Novo Nordisk. You’ll ensure they are embedded into daily ways of working and support our strategic direction across both the Digital, Data & IT organisation and Lines of Business. You’ll work in a complex stakeholder landscape and act as a bridge between IT and business—ensuring architectural guidance is relevant, accessible, and actionable.

Your main responsibility:
You will drive and own EA initiatives and products—from development to implementation—ensuring they are maintained, continuously improved, and embedded across the organisation. You’ll coordinate development efforts, drive adoption, and work closely with stakeholders to maximise value and usability.

Key responsibilities include:

•    A proven track record of leading digital transformation and stakeholder engagement.
•    Strong understanding of IT infrastructure, software development, and data management.
•    Experience in frameworks like SAFe, GxP, or other auditable environments is an advantage.

As a person, you are a clear and confident communicator, able to engage effectively across all levels of the organization and different disciplines. You bring an analytical mindset and a strategic approach to your work, always keeping the bigger picture in focus. You lead with both influence and empathy, creating space for others while guiding teams toward shared goals.
