Job Specifications

This financial services firm has a well-established Security function and a strong company culture, offering a remote contract and a challenging and varied role as an IAM architect.

The role will focus on Customer IAM (CIAM / Customer Identity Access Management), Zero Trust and fraud prevention.

The role sits in the Security Architecture function and is responsible for defining the Zero Trust target state architecture, setting principles, standards and guardrails, and creating reference architectures and patterns. This is a genuine opportunity to make an impact, given the fundamental importance of Zero Trust to the organisation as a whole.

Regarding IAM, there is already a workforce-focused IAM team in place so this role will focus on securing customer interactions and fraud prevention. Tooling and platforms already in place include Okta, Ping Identity, Entra ID and other AWS and Azure services. You will design and oversee architecture and identity controls, working as a key part of the security team as the company continues its transformational journey to AWS/Azure cloud.

The successful candidate will be an experienced architect with deep expertise in IAM, CIAM and zero trust. You must also have a strong understanding of cloud security architecture and controls (AWS and/or Azure).

This is an individual contributor role, offering a remote contract (must be UK based) but visa sponsorship is not available unfortunately.

Salary £100,000 + good bonus potential (c15%) + benefits.
