    ● Monitor and audit the global standards for Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) and

    Single Sign-On (SSO) including Social Login/Federation and Identity Providers to

    ensure consistent, high-level security throughout the global "web landscape."

    ● Work closely with global IT teams, business units, and other stakeholders to

    understand and address their IAM requirements.

    ● Provide guidance and support on IAM processes and procedures.

    ● Document IAM processes and maintain a current knowledge base.

    3. Analysis & risk management

    ● Utilize analytical skills to extract and interpret data to support processes and

    proactive threat detection.

    ● Maintain a "security-first" mentality and actively anticipate vulnerabilities in a complex

    environment.

    Required expertise and qualifications

    Experience & skills:

    ● At least 5 years of IT experience, of which at least 3 years in the IAM field

    ● Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities.

    ● You are eager to learn and enjoy sharing your knowledge with the team

    ● Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain complex

    IAM topics and architectural risks to non-technical business users.

    ● Global Mindset: Proven experience working with diverse stakeholders across multiple

    countries and time zones.

    Technical expertise:

    ● Foundational IAM: Deep, practical understanding of SSO protocols (OIDC/SAML),

    MFA, Identity providers and federation principles.

    ● Cloud Identity Platforms: Proficiency in analyzing and securing environments using
