Security Architect - Entra ID/MS/Azure
We are seeking an experienced Security Architect to design, implement and govern secure identity and cloud solutions across Microsoft Entra ID and Azure environments. You will define architecture standards, security patterns and roadmaps that support resilient, scalable and compliant services. Working closely with infrastructure, applications, networking, risk and delivery teams, you will translate business and technical requirements into practical security designs and ensure that identity remains central to the organisation’s security strategy.
Your responsibilities will include developing and reviewing Entra ID architectures, including tenant configuration, identity governance, privileged access management, conditional access, authentication, application registration and hybrid identity integration. You will establish secure Azure landing zones, advise on role-based access control, subscription and resource hierarchy, and help embed zero-trust principles across cloud services. The role will also involve assessing security risks, conducting design reviews, defining remediation plans, supporting incident investigations and maintaining architecture documentation, policies and technical standards. You will provide technical leadership during complex projects and communicate recommendations clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Applicants should have substantial experience in security architecture, cloud identity or a closely related discipline, with strong hands-on knowledge of Microsoft Entra ID, Azure security services and hybrid environments. Experience with privileged identity management, conditional access, identity protection, Defender technologies, Microsoft 365 security and automation using PowerShell or similar tools is highly desirable. You should understand recognised security frameworks, access governance, data protection and regulatory requirements, and be able to balance security, usability and operational needs. Relevant professional certifications such as Azure Security Engineer, Cybersecurity Architect, Identity and Access Administrator or equivalent experience would be advantageous. Strong analytical, documentation, stakeholder management and communication skills are essential.
