The Role

The IAM & PAM Lead Analyst is a key position within the Information Security function, responsible for leading the strategy, implementation, and ongoing management of Apex’s Identity & Privileged Access Management (IAM & PAM) frameworks. This role covers both user identity lifecycle and privileged access governance across the organization. It will report directly to the Identity & Privileged Access Manager and work closely with global stakeholders in IT, Security, Risk, and Compliance.

Key duties and responsibilities

Identity & Access Management (IAM)

  • Lead operational IAM activities, including joiner-mover-leaver processes, access provisioning, role-based access control (RBAC), and periodic access reviews.
  • Collaborate with IT and HR systems to ensure alignment and automation of identity lifecycle workflows.
  • Participate in IAM governance efforts and help design access policies and controls for both enterprise and cloud applications.
  • Support continuous improvement and maturity of IAM processes and tools.

Privileged Access Management (PAM)

  • Oversee the privileged access lifecycle for critical systems, including administration of Apex’s enterprise PAM solution (CyberArk).
  • Drive the global implementation and optimisation of PAM tools, controls, and automation.
  • Maintain the integrity of privileged access processes including provisioning, session monitoring, credential management, and access certifications.
  • Identify, assess, and remediate risks associated with privileged access.
  • Lead audits and compliance reviews related to privileged and elevated access.
  • Create and maintain PAM policies, standards, and operational documentation.
  • Provide guidance and mentorship to regional teams and end-users on PAM best practices.
  • Experience and Knowledge

  • 5–8 years of experience in Identity and Access Management, with a strong focus on Privileged Access Management.
  • Deep understanding of IAM / PAM principles, role-based access control, authentication methods, and zero-trust architecture.
  • Demonstrated expertise with CyberArk.
  • Experience leading PAM deployments in large, complex environments.
  • Strong familiarity with Active Directory, Azure AD, LDAP, SAML, OAuth, and cloud access management.
  • Experience in the financial services or highly regulated industry is a strong advantage.
  • Strong stakeholder engagement skills, including experience working across IT, InfoSec, and business teams.
  • High attention to detail, well-organised, and effective at managing competing priorities.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English.
  • CyberArk Defender, CyberArk Sentry or relevant certifications such as CISSP, CISM and CIAM will be encouraged.
  • What you will get in return

  • High visibility and impact within a large, globally expanding organisation.
  • A supportive, collaborative, and high-performance work culture.
  • Cross-functional exposure and opportunities to lead global security initiatives.
  • Career development opportunities within one of the world’s leading independent fund administrators.
  • The chance to innovate and influence security maturity and architecture.
  • Disclaimer

    Disclaimer : Unsolicited CVs sent to Apex (Talent Acquisition Team or Hiring Managers) by recruitment agencies will not be accepted for this position. Apex operates a direct sourcing model and where agency assistance is required, the Talent Acquisition team will engage directly with our exclusive recruitment partners.
