Identity and Access Management specialist with over ten years’ experience designing, securing and governing enterprise identity across Microsoft hybrid and cloud environments. I’ve led large IAM programmes end to end, including multi-tenant passwordless MFA rollouts, the move from legacy MFA to Conditional Access, and FIM-to-MIM migrations. I’ve automated Joiner-Mover-Leaver processes by integrating HR systems (SAP SuccessFactors, Workday) with Entra ID and Active Directory through SCIM provisioning. I bring deep hands-on expertise in Entra ID, Conditional Access, PIM/PAM (BeyondTrust), certificate-based and passwordless authentication, and Active Directory tiering, applied within Zero Trust and least-privilege principles. I’m used to working closely with Security, Architecture and Infrastructure teams: assessing current state, recommending improvements, and producing designs, roadmaps and governance-approved documentation.
