Troubleshoot and resolve IAM-related technical issues or escalate them to higher-level support when necessary. Work collaboratively with Technology teams to integrate IAM solutions with existing and new systems.
• Policy and Procedure Development: Assist in the development and implementation of IAM policies, procedures, and best practices. Continuously improve IAM workflows and access governance processes.
• Reporting and Documentation: Prepare and deliver regular reports on user access, security incidents, and compliance status. Document IAM processes, procedures, and workflows for internal training and future reference.

What You'll Need

• Security Knowledge: Understanding of IT security principles, data protection regulations, and best practices for managing sensitive information.
• Problem-Solving: Strong analytical and troubleshooting abilities to resolve access-related issues efficiently.
• Communication Skills: Ability to communicate clearly and effectively with both technical teams and non-technical users.
