This role is crucial for driving enterprise-wide IAM strategies and transformations, offering a unique opportunity to work with C-suite executives, private equity investors, and global corporate clients. You will shape the future of identity-led Zero Trust initiatives, guide enterprise transformations, and provide critical cyber due diligence. Your expertise will be essential in post-deal IAM integration, carve-out, and separation strategies, ensuring seamless transitions from signing through Day 1 and beyond.

Lead global client engagements in IAM strategy, architecture, and transformation, translating business needs into actionable operating models and investment plans. Design and review comprehensive enterprise IAM architectures, encompassing access management, IGA, PAM, and directory services across diverse identity types. Own the target-state architecture and provide design assurance throughout the implementation lifecycle. Architect and guide Microsoft Entra ID and hybrid identity solutions, including federation, SSO, MFA, and Conditional Access. Manage IAM migration and transformation workstreams, focusing on platform consolidation, application onboarding, and identity lifecycle management. Assess complex IAM environments to identify control gaps and define remediation actions. Lead cyber due diligence for buy-side and sell-side transactions, evaluating IAM maturity and identifying value-creation opportunities. Define practical integration and separation approaches for tenants, directories, and applications, ensuring secure access continuity and clear governance.

A Bachelor's degree (B.Tech./B.E. or equivalent) in Computer Science, Information Technology, Electronics, or Cybersecurity is required. An MBA or equivalent postgraduate qualification from a Tier 1/Tier 2 institute is preferred. You must possess 8-10 years of relevant experience in IAM strategy, architecture, consulting, or transformation, with a proven track record of leading complex client workstreams. Strong experience in developing IAM strategies, target operating models, and transformation roadmaps is essential. Hands-on architecture or delivery experience with Microsoft Entra ID and hybrid Active Directory, alongside a leading IGA, PAM, or access-management platform, is mandatory. Experience leading IAM transformation or migration workstreams and supporting acquisitions, integrations, or separations is also required. A strong understanding of identity lifecycle management, RBAC/ABAC, privileged and non-human identities, and key security standards like OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, SAML, and SCIM is crucial.
