Job description

2908 – Identity Technical Specialist

prosource.it is recruiting an Identity Technical Specialist for an exciting opportunity with a global organisation operating a complex enterprise technology environment. This is a hands-on technical role focused on delivering a significant programme of identity change, taking ownership of identity-related activities from planning through to implementation and transition. The successful candidate will play a key role in consolidating identity platforms into a single Microsoft Entra ID environment while helping strengthen identity capability ahead of a wider cloud migration programme. Working closely with internal technical teams, project stakeholders and an external managed service provider, you will be responsible for delivering secure, scalable and well-governed identity services.

Location: Aberdeen or London with regular weekly attendance ideally preferred, but flexibility allowing for ad hoc on site attendance will be considered for the right candidate. Some travel may also be required, including occasional international travel in support of regional activities.

Contract Type: Permanent or Contract Considered

Salary: £80,000 - £100,000 DOE

Contractors: Competitive day rate available for suitable candidates

The Role

• Drive the hands-on technical delivery of a programme of identity change across the organisation's estate, taking technical ownership of work end to end
• Consolidate two identity environments, inherited through an acquisition, into a single Microsoft Entra ID tenant and retire the legacy environment
• Build and strengthen the organisation's identity capability ahead of a global cloud migration, so that identity is secure, automated and ready for scale
• Work under the direction of the Platform, Cloud & Identity Manager, alongside the in-house identity team and an identity managed service provider

What you’ll do

• Plan, sequence and execute identity changes across the estate end to end, coordinating technically with the in-house team, the managed service provider and project teams
• Implement recommendations from a recent IAM assessment, delivering the agreed tactical identity improvements
• Execute the migration of users, groups, applications/SSO, guest (B2B) accounts, devices and dependent services from the legacy identity environment into the target Entra ID tenant
• Prepare and run cut-over and rollback plans, validate outcomes, and safely decommission the legacy identity environment
• Configure and harden Entra ID ahead of cloud migration: Conditional Access, MFA/passwordless, app integration (SAML/OIDC), Entra Connect / Cloud Sync and hybrid Active Directory
• Automate joiner/mover/leaver processes with HR systems and ServiceNow; implement access reviews and role-based access control (RBAC)
• Implement privileged access controls (PIM, admin tiering, break-glass accounts) and the identity prerequisites for cloud platforms (Azure RBAC, managed identities)
• Produce identity technical documentation, configuration standards and runbooks, and provide audit and controls evidence as required
• Transfer knowledge to the in-house identity team and support the managed service provider so the identity capability is sustained after the engagement

What to bring

Essential

• Proven hands-on experience delivering identity and access management solutions within Microsoft Entra ID environments
• Hands-on delivery of an identity consolidation or tenant-to-tenant migration (e.g. post-merger)
• Strong Entra ID skills: Conditional Access, MFA, PIM, app registrations/enterprise apps, B2B, Entra Connect / Cloud Sync and hybrid AD
• Experience automating joiner/mover/leaver processes with HR and ITSM systems (ideally ServiceNow) and implementing RBAC
• Working knowledge of SAML, OIDC, OAuth and SCIM, and PowerShell / Microsoft Graph scripting
• Clear technical documentation skills and experience working alongside managed service providers

Preferred

• Experience with identity governance tooling such as SailPoint (One Identity Manager also beneficial)
• Microsoft SC-300 (Identity and Access Administrator) certification; awareness of Zero Trust principles
• Experience of SAP access / emergency access controls
• Experience in regulated, critical-infrastructure or energy sector environments

Personal Attributes

• Communication - Explains technical identity changes clearly, in writing and in person, to technical and non-technical audiences
• Teamwork - Works collaboratively with in-house staff, project teams and the managed service provider
• Problem Solving - Diagnoses and resolves complex identity and access issues methodically
• Adaptability / Flexibility - Adjusts to changing priorities and migration phases without losing quality
• Results Orientation - Takes ownership of delivering identity changes safely, documented and to agreed timescales
