Mid-level Security Engineer Identity

Ready to lead the charge in modern identity and access management?

Do you bring engineering experience with SailPoint or similar platforms? This is your opportunity to shape and strengthen a robust Identity and Access Management (IDAM) program that safeguards critical assets while enabling seamless and secure access across the enterprise.

As a subject-matter expert in Identity Governance (IGA), Access Management (SSO, MFA), and Identity Verification, you will architect, manage, and evolve the lifecycle of IDAM tools and infrastructure. Your technical leadership will guide federated authentication, privileged access management, and strategic security initiatives aligned with business goals.

You’ll work hands-on with platforms such as SailPoint, Microsoft Defender for Identity, and BeyondTrust to maintain and optimise enterprise-wide identity services. This role is ideal for someone passionate about directory architecture, authentication protocols (OAuth, SAML, Kerberos), and navigating complex compliance requirements. If you thrive on staying ahead of threat vectors and want to take ownership of security infrastructure that matters, this is your chance to make an impact.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead the design, implementation, and continuous improvement of a modern IDAM program that balances accessibility with security and compliance.
• Evaluate and advise on the broader impact of access and identity decisions across the business and IT landscape.
• Act as a subject-matter expert across the full spectrum of IDAM domains, including Identity Governance & Administration (IGA), Single Sign-On (SSO), Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), and Identity Proofing.
• Manage the complete lifecycle of IDAM technologies and supporting infrastructure.
• Provide support, maintenance, and optimisation for key tools such as Microsoft Defender for Identity, SailPoint or Saviynt, BeyondTrust, and CyberArk.
• Contribute to the Privileged Access Management (PAM) strategy and operations.

Experience and Skills Required:

• Proven experience in one or more of the following: identity federation, SSO, identity directory architecture, namespace and schema design, provisioning, ITIL-based process integration, and enterprise directory services.
• Hands-on experience administering authentication technologies such as Microsoft Active Directory, OpenLDAP, Kerberos, OpenID Connect, SAML, OAuth, SCIM, Azure AD, and related identity platforms.
• Strong understanding of access governance concepts, including role-based access control, access requests and certifications, and lifecycle management processes.
• Familiarity with security compliance standards and audit requirements.
• Expertise in authentication, authorization, access controls, identity lifecycle, and access-related threat mitigation.

What You Can Expect:

• Work that is varied, stimulating, and impactful, with the chance to collaborate across financial, public, and private sectors.
• A professional environment that values inclusion, innovation, integrity, and responsibility.
• A workplace that supports hybrid and flexible working models, encouraging in-person collaboration at least three days a week.
• A culture focused on employee wellbeing, sustainability, and digital transformation.
• Competitive benefits and a commitment to fostering a respectful, high-performing, and diverse work environment.
