You will lead a team of IAM specialists and work closely with information security, infrastructure, applications, risk, compliance and business stakeholders to ensure secure, reliable and user-focused access to systems and data.
Your responsibilities will include setting the team’s priorities, managing workloads and supporting the professional development of team members. You will provide technical leadership across identity lifecycle management, joiner-mover-leaver processes, access provisioning, privileged access management, authentication, single sign-on, role-based access control and access reviews. You will help define and enforce IAM policies, standards and procedures, while ensuring services align with security frameworks, data protection obligations and internal controls. The role will also involve overseeing incidents, problems and change activities, managing suppliers where required, and contributing to audits, risk assessments and remediation plans.
