Identity & Access Management Lead
We are seeking an experienced Identity & Access Management Lead to provide strategic direction and operational leadership across identity, access, and authentication services. This role will be responsible for developing and delivering an IAM roadmap that supports secure, efficient, and compliant access to systems, applications, data, and infrastructure. You will work closely with technology, security, risk, audit, and business stakeholders to strengthen identity controls and enable effective access management across the organisation.
Key responsibilities will include leading the design, implementation, and continuous improvement of IAM capabilities, including joiner, mover, and leaver processes, role-based access control, privileged access management, single sign-on, multi-factor authentication, directory services, and access certification. You will oversee governance processes, ensure appropriate segregation of duties, maintain accurate access records, and support internal and external audits. The role will also involve managing IAM-related projects, suppliers, risks, incidents, and service performance, while identifying opportunities to automate processes and improve the user experience.
Applicants should have substantial experience leading identity and access management within a complex technology environment, together with strong knowledge of IAM principles, security frameworks, and regulatory requirements. Experience with cloud identity platforms, Active Directory or equivalent directory technologies, privileged access solutions, identity governance, and modern authentication standards is highly desirable. You will be an effective communicator who can translate technical and security requirements for varied audiences, influence senior stakeholders, and lead teams or delivery partners through change. Relevant professional certifications in information security, IAM, audit, or cloud technologies would be advantageous.
