You will work closely with infrastructure, security, applications and service teams to deliver reliable, scalable and well-governed identity solutions.

Your responsibilities will include administering and optimising Entra ID, including users, groups, roles, administrative units, enterprise applications, service principals and conditional access policies.

Experience with conditional access, hybrid identity, federation, privileged access, application registrations, Zero Trust principles and Microsoft security tooling is essential. Relevant Microsoft certifications, such as identity and access administration or cybersecurity qualifications, would be advantageous. You should be comfortable leading technical projects, communicating with both technical and non-technical stakeholders, and balancing operational support with long-term service improvement. A methodical approach, strong problem-solving skills and a commitment to secure-by-design principles are essential.
