This is an opportunity to join a high-profile programme responsible for strengthening Privileged Access Management (PAM) governance, improving access controls and delivering sustainable identity processes across a complex, highly regulated enterprise.

You'll play a key role in shaping the future of enterprise Identity & Access Management by:

• Leading business analysis activities across Privileged Access Management initiatives
• Driving PAM governance, remediation and access control improvements
• Capturing and documenting business and functional requirements
• Designing As-Is and To-Be business processes using BPMN
• Producing high-quality functional specifications for technical delivery teams
• Working closely with Security, IAM, Infrastructure and Business stakeholders
• Supporting role modelling, RBAC, access reviews and recertification activities
• Developing user guides, quick reference materials and training documentation
• Supporting testing, implementation and successful business adoption
• Performing impact assessments and identifying business risks
• Helping define pragmatic solutions that balance governance, security and operational efficiency

You'll ideally bring

• 5+ years' experience as an IAM Business Analyst or PAM Business Analyst
• Strong knowledge of Identity & Access Management principles
• Hands-on experience with Privileged Access Management governance
• Experience with CyberArk, SailPoint, Delinea, BeyondTrust or similar IAM/PAM technologies
• Strong understanding of RBAC, access certification, privileged account governance and least-privilege principles
• Excellent BPMN process mapping and business process documentation skills
• Experience writing BRDs, user stories, functional specifications and process documentation
• Strong stakeholder management and workshop facilitation experience
• Experience delivering within highly regulated environments such as Financial Services

You'll Stand Out If You Have Experience With

• CyberArk
• SailPoint
• Delinea
• BeyondTrust
• Active Directory
• Identity Governance & Administration (IGA)
• Privileged Access Management (PAM)
• Access Reviews & Recertification
• Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)
• Zero Standing Privilege (ZSP)
• Joiner, Mover & Leaver (JML) processes
• ServiceNow
• Agile delivery methodologies

Why Apply?

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a strategic cyber security programme where Identity & Access Management sits at the heart of the organisation's technology and regulatory agenda.

You'll work alongside senior security leaders, architects and engineering teams on enterprise-scale initiatives that directly influence how privileged access is governed across a global organisation.
