Identity & Access Management Team Lead
We are seeking an experienced Identity & Access Management (IAM) Team Lead to provide technical leadership and operational oversight across the organisation’s identity services. You will lead a team responsible for the secure and efficient management of user identities, access rights and authentication technologies, ensuring services are reliable, compliant and aligned with business requirements. This is an opportunity to shape IAM practices, improve service delivery and support the continued development of a robust security environment.
Key responsibilities will include leading, coaching and developing the IAM team; setting priorities and managing workload; and overseeing the full identity lifecycle, including joiner, mover and leaver processes, access provisioning, privileged access and periodic access reviews. You will contribute to the design and implementation of IAM strategies, standards and controls, while supporting technologies such as directory services, single sign-on, multi-factor authentication, role-based access control and identity governance platforms. The role will also involve monitoring service performance, managing incidents and escalations, supporting audits, identifying risks and delivering continuous improvement initiatives. You will work closely with cybersecurity, infrastructure, applications, HR and business stakeholders to ensure access is appropriate, timely and secure.
Applicants should have substantial experience in identity and access management, including experience leading or mentoring a technical team. You will bring strong knowledge of IAM principles, access governance, authentication protocols and security best practice, together with practical experience of managing enterprise identity platforms and integrations. Experience with cloud identity services, privileged access management, automation and audit or regulatory requirements would be highly advantageous. Strong analytical, organisational and communication skills are essential, as is the ability to explain complex technical matters to varied audiences and make sound decisions in a fast-changing environment. Relevant professional certifications in cybersecurity, IAM or service management are desirable. The successful candidate will be collaborative, accountable and committed to delivering secure, user-focused services.
