We're partnering with a leading international financial services organisation embarking on a major transformation of its Identity & Access Management (IAM) capabilities. 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.

This isn't a traditional Business Analyst role. We're looking for someone who genuinely understands Identity & Access Management and can bridge the gap between business stakeholders, security teams and technical delivery teams to design practical, compliant and scalable IAM solutions.

What You'll Be Doing

  • 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

What We're Looking For

  • 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.
