IAM Governance Specialist
We are seeking an experienced IAM Governance Specialist to support the development, implementation and continuous improvement of identity and access management governance across a complex technology environment. This role will help ensure that access to systems, applications and data is appropriately controlled, regularly reviewed and aligned with business and regulatory requirements.
You will establish and maintain IAM policies, standards, procedures and control frameworks, working closely with information security, technology, risk, compliance and operational teams. Key responsibilities will include defining access governance processes, supporting role-based access control and segregation of duties, coordinating periodic access reviews, and monitoring the timely removal or amendment of access when people change roles or leave the organisation.
The role will also involve maintaining accurate IAM documentation, control evidence, process maps and management information. You will investigate control exceptions, identify areas of risk, support remediation activity and contribute to internal and external audits. Where required, you will help assess access-related risks associated with new systems, suppliers, projects and changes to business processes.
The successful candidate will have proven experience in IAM governance, access control, IT risk, compliance or a closely related discipline. You should understand identity lifecycle management, privileged access, joiner, mover and leaver processes, access certification and segregation of duties principles. Experience of IAM platforms, governance tooling, audit frameworks and regulatory standards such as ISO 27001, NIST or relevant data protection requirements would be advantageous.
Strong analytical, organisational and communication skills are essential, together with the ability to translate technical and control requirements for a range of audiences. You will be comfortable managing competing priorities, challenging ineffective practices constructively and working collaboratively with stakeholders at all levels. A methodical approach, sound judgement and a commitment to continual improvement will be key to success in this position.
