IGA Lead Engineer
We are seeking an experienced IGA Lead Engineer to provide technical leadership across the design, delivery and ongoing improvement of identity governance and administration capabilities. This is an excellent opportunity for a hands-on specialist who can shape secure, scalable and resilient identity services within a complex technology environment.
You will lead the engineering lifecycle for IGA solutions, including architecture, configuration, integration, testing, deployment and operational support. Working closely with security, infrastructure, application and service management teams, you will translate business and regulatory requirements into effective identity processes and technical designs.
Key responsibilities will include defining and maintaining identity lifecycle, joiner, mover and leaver processes; developing role-based access control and access certification models; integrating applications and directories; and supporting automated provisioning and de-provisioning. You will also oversee platform upgrades, investigate incidents, resolve defects and contribute to continuous service improvement.
The role will involve setting engineering standards, reviewing technical changes and ensuring solutions comply with security policies, audit requirements and relevant data protection principles. You will produce clear technical documentation, contribute to architectural decisions and provide guidance to engineers and delivery partners. Where required, you will support risk assessments, control testing and evidence gathering for internal and external audits.
Applicants should have substantial experience delivering and supporting IGA or IAM platforms in enterprise environments, with a strong understanding of identity governance, access management and security principles. Experience with application onboarding, directory services, workflow design, access reviews and automated provisioning is essential. Knowledge of technologies such as Active Directory, Entra ID, LDAP, REST APIs, SQL and scripting languages would be advantageous.
You will be a confident communicator with strong analytical and problem-solving skills, able to manage competing priorities and explain technical concepts to both specialist and non-specialist audiences. Experience leading technical workstreams, mentoring colleagues and working within Agile or structured delivery frameworks is desirable. Relevant professional qualifications in information security, cloud or identity management would be beneficial.
