This is a predominantly technical role (70% technical / 30% leadership), focused on 2nd and 3rd line support, complex troubleshooting, incident resolution and team supervision. You'll need to be comfortable working directly with the technology rather than focusing solely on architecture or service design.

Use PowerShell scripting to investigate issues and automate operational tasks.

Manage escalations, root cause analysis and continuous service improvement.
Supervise technical team members and communicate effectively with senior stakeholders, including CTO and CISO level.
Essential Experience
Strong hands-on experience running and supporting enterprise IAM services.
Excellent PowerShell scripting and troubleshooting skills.
Strong Microsoft Entra ID, on-premises Active Directory, conditional access and GPO knowledge.
Proven 2nd/3rd line support and complex incident management experience.
Experience leading or supervising technical teams.
Excellent communication and presentation skills, with the ability to translate technical information for senior stakeholders.
Desirable: Experience with Okta, BeyondTrust, CrowdStrike Identity and Microsoft Identity Manager (MIM).
Working Arrangements
Location: UK-wide, with five days per week on-site at the designated client location.
Working pattern: Full-time, on-site commitment is essential.
This is an excellent opportunity for a technically strong IAM professional who enjoys solving complex problems, leading a team and taking ownership of a critical live service.
