Contract: B2B

Duration: Long-term, until 30/06/2028

Description

Join a strategic, international IAM/IGA transformation programme within the insurance sector. The programme is introducing a group-wide Business Role model, migrating existing SailPoint-based roles, and gradually rolling out a new target environment based on One Identity (myAccess) and Nexis.

This is not an IAM operations role. The assignment sits at the intersection of solution architecture, authorization models, identity governance, Business Role Management, and enterprise integration, helping define how access should be structured and governed across a large international organisation.

What will you be working on?

You will define and validate the solution architecture for Business Role Management, covering data models, entitlement structures, governance mechanisms, workflows, integrations, and operational processes.

A major part of the assignment involves analysing the existing authorisation landscape and determining how current SailPoint-based Business Roles should be migrated into the new target model.

You will also design and validate Business Role processes implemented in Nexis and integrated with One Identity / myAccess and other enterprise systems. The role covers the full transformation lifecycle—from architecture and solution design through dry-runs, integration testing, pilots, and phased production rollout.

You will work closely with Business Analysts, Requirements Engineers, Test Managers, Security Architects, Solution Architects, and other members of the core transformation team.

Responsibilities

• Design the target Business Role Management architecture.
• Define entitlement models, data structures, and integration requirements.
• Assess existing roles, authorisation concepts, and organisational structures.
• Support migration of existing SailPoint-based roles.
• Design role lifecycle and approval workflows.
• Define governance controls and support Segregation of Duties (SoD) requirements.
• Validate architecture during integration testing, pilots, and rollout.
• Prepare solution design documentation and implementation concepts.
• Advise the programme on Business Role governance, migration strategy, and the future operating model.

Nice to have

Experience with Nexis, insurance, banking, or another regulated industry is particularly valuable, as is knowledge of Segregation of Duties, Microsoft Active Directory, SAP, Azure DevOps, or Power BI in an IAM/IGA environment.
