About the Role

The Company is seeking a Senior Vice President to lead its Identity and Access Management (IAM) organization. The successful candidate will be responsible for advancing the firm's identity security strategy, governance, engineering, operations, and resiliency capabilities. This executive leader will oversee all aspects of identity management, ensuring secure and compliant access to resources while supporting business growth and digital transformation. Key responsibilities include leading the IAM program, establishing a multi-year roadmap, and driving continuous improvement of identity controls. The role also involves leading a large-scale IAM organization, modernizing efforts focused on Zero Trust principles, and ensuring operational resilience and stability. Applicants must have a Bachelor's degree in a related discipline, with a preference for a Master's degree, and at least 15 years of progressive leadership experience in cybersecurity, identity management, or enterprise technology. Deep expertise in IAM components such as Identity Governance and Administration, Privileged Access Management, Single Sign-On, Multi-Factor Authentication, and directory services is essential. The ideal candidate will have a proven track record in managing large technical organizations, strong executive communication skills, and the ability to lead through ambiguity. Experience in financial services or other highly regulated industries is a plus, as is the possession of relevant security certifications. The role requires a leader who can balance strategic vision with practical execution, and who is adept at building trust and credibility across a diverse organization.
