Key Responsibilities & Deliverables
This role is focused on the successful completion of specific tasks and deliverables. Your responsibilities will include:
- Impact and Identity Analysis: Evaluate how UPN and email domain changes will impact existing systems; perform identity mapping and validation of attribute updates flowing into Entra ID.
- Documentation and Risk Mitigation: Map identity dependencies across Entra ID and connected services; identify risks and remediation steps, and maintain up-to-date system documentation.
- Stakeholder Management: Work with application owners to confirm current system behaviors and report findings to the Project Lead.
- BAU Operations and Infrastructure Support: Maintain daily SysAdmin operations across Windows, M365, and core IT infrastructure.
- Access and Authentication Management: Manage identity-related tasks, including account updates, access troubleshooting, group management, and resolving authentication issues.

- 2 years of experience in a similar role.
- Deep expertise in Entra ID management, including deep knowledge of identity attributes (UPN, proxy addresses, Object ID) and strong understanding of authentication protocols (SAML/OIDC). This isn't a learning role—you need to be a subject matter expert.
