What you need

We are looking for an experienced identity security practitioner with deep hands-on IGA expertise and a strong foundation across the broader identity and access management discipline. You will bring:

IGA Platform Expertise: Demonstrated hands-on experience administering an enterprise IGA platform, with strong preference for SailPoint (IdentityNow or IdentityIQ). Experience should include identity lifecycle management, access certifications, connector configuration, role management, and lifecycle rule development. Familiarity with additional IGA platforms (e.g. Saviynt, Omada, One Identity) is highly desirable, given our intent to maintain platform-agnostic capability.
PAM Knowledge & Capability Building: Solid understanding of Privileged Access Management concepts and technologies, including privileged account vaulting, session recording, JIT access, and credential rotation. Prior experience evaluating or implementing a PAM solution is a strong advantage; candidates who have contributed to a PAM programme build from the ground up are particularly sought after.
Non-Human Identity Management: Experience governing NHI at scale, including service accounts, API keys, OAuth/OIDC tokens, certificates, and secrets. Familiarity with enterprise secrets management platforms (e.g. HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, Azure Key Vault, CyberArk Conjur) and an understanding of the unique risks associated with unmanaged or over-privileged NHI.
AI Agent & Agentic Workflow Identity: Understanding of the identity and access challenges posed by AI agents and automated systems, including how to scope, govern, and lifecycle-manage machine identities operating within or on behalf of AI-driven workflows. Experience in this area is emerging and will be valued highly.
Identity Protocols & Standards: Strong working knowledge of core identity protocols and standards including SAML 2.0, OAuth 2.0, OIDC, SCIM, LDAP, and Kerberos, and their practical application in hybrid enterprise environments.
Cloud IAM: Hands-on experience with cloud IAM platforms, particularly AWS IAM, Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD), and/or GCP IAM, including policy design, role management, and Privileged Identity Management (PIM) capabilities.
Scripting & Automation: Proficiency in one or more scripting or programming languages commonly used in identity automation (e.g. Python, PowerShell, Java/BeanShell for SailPoint rule development). Ability to build integrations and workflows that reduce manual identity operations.
Security Frameworks & Compliance: Familiarity with identity-relevant security frameworks and compliance standards (e.g. NIST SP 800-63, NIST CSF, ISO 27001, SOC 2), and an understanding of how IGA and PAM controls map to audit and regulatory requirements.

Communication & Collaboration: Strong ability to translate complex identity security concepts for non-technical stakeholders, and to work cross-functionally across HR, IT, Engineering, and Security to deliver identity outcomes. Clear documentation skills are essential
