FDM is a global business and technology consultancy seeking a Senior Technical PAM Consultant to join our Global Systems Integrator client. This is an exciting opportunity to play a leading role in a strategic Privileged Access Management (PAM) programme, providing deep technical expertise across identity security, privileged access controls, and enterprise cyber security transformation. This is initially a 6 month contract with very good prospects to extend and will be a remote role.

You will act as a subject matter expert for PAM and Identity & Access Management (IAM), helping to shape the future direction of a global privileged access strategy. Working closely with security leadership, architects, engineers, and business stakeholders, you will provide technical guidance on the evolution of an existing CyberArk estate, including long-term plans to transition towards a SaaS-based solution capable of supporting a global user base.

The role will be focused on providing technical leadership and consultancy around PAM architecture, security controls, and strategic roadmap planning. You will help guide the organisation's journey towards a modern, scalable privileged access platform while ensuring current controls remain effective and aligned with security best practice.

There may also be opportunities to support adjacent identity security initiatives, including multi-factor authentication (MFA) projects and broader identity transformation activities.
