About Our Client
Our client is a leading global company known for its innovative technology products. They are also significantly strengthening their cybersecurity, understanding that their advanced and connected products face a constantly changing threat landscape. This means they need skilled people who are passionate about staying ahead of cyber threats.
Their cybersecurity approach is proactive and innovative; they anticipate threats and develop solutions rather than just reacting.

The Opportunity

Working within a collaborative, global Cyber Security team, you will design and implement robust Identity and Access Management (IAM) solutions. A main focus will be on continuously checking user identities and device security, and creating access rules that give users only the access they need (least privilege).
You will work closely with the Global Head for Security Architecture and Engineering to lead the use of Zero Trust principles and best practices across the company. You will also collaborate with colleagues in the Cyber Security and Risk (CSR) function to fully protect data and products from advanced threats.
