Job Description
This position will be fully remote and can be hired anywhere in the United States.
The Sr. Consultant – IAM Advisory Services requires an understanding of Identity and Access Management and strong experience in business analysis.
This position is for a senior level consultative resource that will be expected to be equally successful and skilled in both IAM subject matters and soft skills.
The Sr. Consultant will be expected to execute on IAM engagements from the business perspective in a billable capacity and provide overall strategic, tactical, and thought leader type responsibilities for each project assigned. The role is primarily focused on business analysis and guiding principles.
IAM Advisory Services Sr. Consultants also carry the first line of client delivery interactions and are responsible for defining, developing, and presenting solution specifications, parameters, and roadmaps during IAM engagements in line with project scope and product functionality. This is not a sales or implementation position. This position requires heavy client face-time, excellent communication and organization skills, and significant, detailed documentation.

Demonstrate understanding and expertise on relevant facets of the security and IAM spaces.
Act as the “strategic/tactical advisor” to the customer through IAM-related guiding principles and industry standard trends and recommendations.
Create excellent, comprehensive documentation detailing requirements, use cases, diagrams, presentations, and more as required by the specific engagement. Proficiency in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Visio are required.
Contribute to internal team building, knowledge transfer, and training activities within this IAM Advisory Services team.

Remain current on IAM market-related and emerging trends, tools, and methodologies.
Travel as needed to customer locations to lead and participate in IAM workshops, assessments and/or deployments (Please note that during this COVID period, any business-related travel is being handled on a case-by-case basis with management approval).
