We are seeking an Identity and Access Management (IAM) Architect to lead the design and evolution of our enterprise identity strategy. You will define how identities are securely managed, authenticated, and authorised across all environments—enabling a scalable, Zero Trust-aligned approach that protects the business while delivering a frictionless user experience. This is a high-impact role at the centre of our security and digital transformation journey.

JOB DUTIES:

• Own the enterprise IAM architecture strategy, target state, and roadmap across cloud, on-premises, and hybrid environments, aligned to Zero Trust and security standards.
• Serve as the IAM technical authority and provide hands-on architectural leadership across infrastructure, cloud, and platform security initiatives.
• Design and document end-to-end IAM capabilities across IGA, access management, PAM, secrets, and non-human identities.
• Define integration patterns and reference architectures; evaluate build vs. buy and emerging IAM capabilities (e.g., passwordless, AI/agentic identities, decentralised identity) to deliver scalable services across applications, infrastructure, and DevOps tooling.
• Architect authentication and authorisation (SSO, MFA, RBAC/ABAC) and standardize protocols (OAuth2/OIDC, SAML, SCIM, LDAP).
• Lead IAM platform design and integration across cloud/hybrid (e.g., Microsoft Entra ID, Active Directory, SailPoint, PingFederate/Ping Identity, AWS IAM, CyberArk or equivalent).
• Define identity lifecycle controls (joiner/mover/leaver, provisioning, access certifications, and role/entitlement modeling).
• Identify IAM risks and architecture gaps; define constraints and mitigations, and drive remediation through roadmap and delivery items.
• Ensure IAM controls and integrations meet security and regulatory requirements (e.g., NIST SP 800-63, ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR) and support audit activities.
• Partner with business stakeholders to align IAM outcomes to enterprise objectives and communicate decisions and tradeoffs to senior leadership.

YOU MUST HAVE:

• Strong experience in the identity and access management, preferably at architecture level, however IAM Engineers seeking opportunities to advance to an architecture role will be considered
• Strong experience across core IAM domains: IGA (lifecycle, certifications), access management (SSO/MFA), Conditional Access, PAM, and non-human identity (workload/service identities), with hands-on-experience with one or more enterprise IAM platforms (e.g., Microsoft Entra ID/Azure AD, Okta, Ping, SailPoint) and integration across cloud/hybrid environments.
