• Automate repetitive IT and access management tasks using identity platforms, scripting, workflow automation, APIs, and AI tools.

• Manage joiner, mover, and leaver processes to ensure employees receive appropriate access when they join or change roles and that access is promptly revoked when they leave.

• Partner with Security Engineering on privileged access decisions, policy exceptions, and other matters requiring specialist security input.
