Job Description

 Identity & Access Management (IAM) Project Manager 100% Remote 

Important Note

Although the title mentions Project Manager, this is not a traditional PM role. It is primarily a hands-on Azure IAM Administrator/Identity Management role with coordination responsibilities. When sourcing, prioritize candidates with strong Azure AD/Entra ID and IAM experience over candidates with only project management backgrounds.
