Identity & Access Specialist
We are seeking an Identity & Access Specialist to support the secure, efficient management of digital identities, user access and authentication services across a complex technology environment. In this role, you will help ensure that employees, contractors and third parties have appropriate access to the systems and information they need, while maintaining strong security controls and compliance with internal policies and regulatory requirements.
Your responsibilities will include administering and maintaining identity and access management platforms, processing joiner, mover and leaver requests, and managing user accounts, groups, roles and permissions. You will support the design and implementation of role-based access control, privileged access management, multi-factor authentication and single sign-on solutions. The role will also involve investigating access-related incidents, resolving user queries, reviewing audit logs, identifying inappropriate or excessive permissions, and contributing to regular access certification and recertification activities. You will work closely with information security, infrastructure, application and service management teams to improve processes, automate repetitive tasks and strengthen overall access governance.
The successful candidate will have practical experience in identity and access management, user provisioning, authentication technologies and access control principles. Familiarity with directory services, cloud identity platforms, SSO, MFA, privileged access tools and IT service management processes is highly desirable. Experience with scripting or automation, such as PowerShell, will be advantageous, as will knowledge of security frameworks, audit requirements and data protection principles. You should be analytical, organised and confident communicating with both technical and non-technical stakeholders. The ability to manage competing priorities, investigate issues thoroughly and handle sensitive information with discretion is essential. Relevant professional certifications in cybersecurity, identity management or cloud technologies would be beneficial.
