Solution Architect (IAM) (Edgewing)
We are seeking an experienced Solution Architect specialising in Identity and Access Management (IAM) to design secure, scalable, and sustainable identity solutions across a complex technology environment. In this role, you will define IAM architecture, establish technical standards, and translate business and security requirements into practical solutions that support workforce, customer, application, and privileged identities.
You will work closely with cybersecurity, infrastructure, application, data, risk, and business stakeholders to develop architecture roadmaps and ensure consistent implementation across cloud and on-premises platforms. Responsibilities will include assessing current IAM capabilities, identifying gaps and risks, designing target-state architectures, and producing high-quality documentation such as principles, reference architectures, solution designs, integration patterns, and technology standards. You will provide architectural direction for identity lifecycle management, access governance, authentication, authorisation, federation, single sign-on, privileged access, directory services, and modern identity protocols including SAML, OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect.
The successful candidate will bring substantial experience in IAM architecture or a closely related security architecture role, with a strong understanding of enterprise security frameworks, zero-trust principles, and regulatory expectations. Practical knowledge of leading IAM, identity governance, privileged access, and cloud identity platforms is essential, along with experience integrating identity services with business applications, APIs, directories, and infrastructure. Strong communication and stakeholder management skills are required, as you will explain complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences, influence design decisions, and support delivery teams through implementation. Relevant professional certifications in security, architecture, or IAM are advantageous. This is an opportunity to shape a strategic identity capability and improve the security, usability, and resilience of access across the organisation.
