Full-time

Accenture

We Are

Accenture Security helps organizations prepare, protect, detect, respond, and recover along with all points of the security lifecycle. Cybersecurity challenges are different for every business in every industry. Leveraging our global resources and advanced technologies, we create integrated, turnkey solutions tailored to our client's needs across their entire value chain. Whether we’re defending against known cyberattacks, detecting and responding to the unknown, or running an entire security operations center, we will help companies build cyber resilience to grow with confidence. Our team of the security sector’s brightest people uses the coolest tech to out-hack the hackers and help clients build resilience from within. We blend risk strategy, digital identity, cyber defense, application security, and managed service solutions to rethink the entire security lifecycle.

Do you have the deep functional and technical experience to help implement security solutions that align with our clients’ business objectives? Do you have the expertise to design and deliver solutions for establishing system user's credentials, and processes for applying those credentials to access enterprise systems and applications?

You Are

The Delivery Lead will be the single point of accountability for end-to-end delivery across all three IAM modernization workstreams—Identity & Access Management (Okta), Identity Governance & Administration (SailPoint ISC), and Privileged Access Management (Delinea)—as well as IAM Data Cleanup and Discovery phases. The role requires deep program orchestration skills, overseeing an offshore-heavy (80%) delivery model. A senior practitioner who can own the full technical and delivery landscape, removing the need to interface with multiple individual workstream leads.

Travel may be required for this role. The amount of travel will vary from 0 to 100% depending on business need and client requirements.

Here’s what we need

  • Minimum of 8 years of total experience in cybersecurity — with at least 5 years focused across multiple domains within Identity including but not limited to Governance, Access Management, Privileged Access, Non-human Identity, and Secrets Management.

  • Minimum of 5 years of demonstrated hands-on experience applying the capabilities of leading vendor tools to solve complex business problems.

  • Minimum of 5 years of technical architecture experience across multiple platforms — Integration of identity and access management systems to core enterprise solutions (CRMs, ticketing tools, cloud infrastructure).

  • Minimum of 3 years of experience leading complex delivery where you’ve managed individuals and been responsible for reporting to a set of senior stakeholders.

  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent (minimum 12 years) work experience. (If Associate’s Degree, must have minimum 6 years work experience)

Professional Skills requirements

  • Working knowledge of IAM principles: RBAC, PAM, MFA, SSO, access reviews, and provisioning/de-provisioning workflows in regulated environments.

  • Ability to read and interpret technical configurations, architecture diagrams, log samples, and system outputs as audit evidence.

  • Strong written communication skills — able to produce clear, concise audit workpapers, findings, and executive summaries.

  • Collaborative work style; comfortable operating in matrixed teams across client, legal, technical, and compliance stakeholders.


Compensation at Accenture varies depending on a wide array of factors, which may include but are not limited to the specific office location, role, skill set, and level of experience. As required by local law, Accenture provides a reasonable range of compensation for roles that may be hired as set forth below.
We anticipate this job posting will be posted until 10/31/2026.

Accenture offers a market competitive suite of benefits including medical, dental, vision, life, and long-term disability coverage, a 401(k) plan, bonus opportunities, paid holidays, and paid time off. See more information on our benefits here:
