6 Month Contract

Via Umbrella

Our UK Leading Banking client require a IAM Architect to help support on an exciting project for an initial 6-month contract.

Candidates should demonstrate the following key skills and experiences:

Strategic Design and Planning

Architectural Design: Develop and document the overall IAM architecture to meet the organization's security and operational needs. This includes defining solutions for identity lifecycle management, single sign-on (SSO), multifactor authentication (MFA), and privileged access management (PAM).

Framework Development:

Establish policies and frameworks for role-based access control (RBAC), attribute-based access control (ABAC), and least-privilege principles.

Scalability and Future-Readiness: Plan IAM systems to scale with organizational growth and evolving technologies, ensuring compatibility with cloud, hybrid, and on-premises environments.

Implementation and Integration

Technology Selection: Evaluate and select IAM tools and technologies (e.g., Okta, ForgeRock, SailPoint, Omada Identity, Microsoft Azure AD) based on organizational requirements.

System Integration: Integrate IAM solutions with enterprise systems (e.g., HR systems, directory services, applications, and cloud platforms) to enable seamless identity and access management.

Custom Development: Where necessary, design and oversee the development of custom IAM features or extensions.

Security and Compliance

Access Control: Implement security measures to enforce access policies, such as least privilege, just-in-time provisioning, and session monitoring.

Risk Management: Identify vulnerabilities in IAM systems and implement measures to mitigate risks.

Compliance Alignment: Ensure IAM solutions comply with regulations and standards such as GDPR, SOX, HIPAA, and ISO 27001.

Operational Oversight: Lifecycle Management: Oversee processes for provisioning, deprovisioning, and managing user identities and credentials throughout their lifecycle.

Monitoring and Reporting: Implement tools and dashboards to monitor IAM system performance, generate compliance reports, and detect anomalies or unauthorized access attempts.

Automation: Drive automation in repetitive IAM processes, such as account creation, role assignment, and periodic access reviews.

Collaboration and Stakeholder Engagement: Cross-Functional Collaboration:

Work with IT, cybersecurity, HR, application owners, and business leaders to align IAM strategies with organizational goals.

Training and Awareness: Provide technical guidance and training for IAM operations teams and create awareness programs for end-users.

Continuous Improvement

Technology Updates: Stay abreast of IAM trends, technologies, and best practices to recommend and implement improvements.

Incident Response Support: Assist in investigating and responding to security incidents involving identities or access breaches.

Core Competencies and Skills

Technical Skills

Strong understanding of directory services (e.g., Active Directory, LDAP).

Expertise in IAM tools and frameworks (e.g., SAML, OAuth, OpenID Connect, SCIM).

Proficiency in scripting and programming (e.g., Python, PowerShell, Java) for automation and integration.

Knowledge of cloud IAM (e.g., Azure AD, AWS IAM, Google Workspace).

Soft Skills

Strategic thinking to align IAM architecture with business goals.

Communication skills for translating technical solutions into business value.

Problem-solving to address complex access management challenges.
