Shape a more secure, seamless way for people and technology to access what they need. As an IAM Program Lead, you’ll own the Identity and Access Management roadmap from strategy through adoption—bringing security, technology, compliance, HR, application owners, and business teams together around measurable outcomes.
You’ll turn complex priorities into clear delivery plans, manage dependencies and trade-offs, and keep high-impact initiatives moving on time and within approved scope and budget. Your work will help reduce identity risk, strengthen controls, improve audit readiness, and create a better user experience.

Partner with security, technology, infrastructure, HR, compliance, application owners, and business leaders to align priorities and drive cross-functional execution.
Establish effective program rhythms, including planning reviews, status reporting, risk and issue management, dependency tracking, and executive escalations.
Define and track success measures such as access-review completion, joiner-mover-leaver effectiveness, privileged-access controls, authentication adoption, audit readiness, and risk reduction.
Communicate clear, decision-focused updates to executives and technical teams, surfacing blockers early and driving recovery plans when delivery forecasts change.
3–5+ years of experience managing complex cross-functional technology, security, infrastructure, product, or IAM programs.
Experience building and managing roadmaps for IAM, cybersecurity, infrastructure, or enterprise technology initiatives.
Proficiency with Jira or similar delivery and project-management tools, including dashboards and reporting.
A track record of managing delivery against scope, timelines, resources, dependencies, risks, and budgets.
Strong stakeholder-management skills, with the ability to communicate priorities, risks, trade-offs, and outcomes to both executives and technical teams.

A bachelor’s degree or equivalent professional experience.
Experience delivering IAM or security-transformation programs, or modernizing enterprise infrastructure.
