Scope Definition: Work closely with stakeholders to define the scope of the PAM project, including understanding business requirements, identifying key assets and users, and determining risk factors.
RFP Preparation: Lead the preparation of a detailed Request for Proposal (RFP) for selecting a PAM tool. This includes defining technical requirements, evaluating potential vendors, and ensuring alignment with the organization’s security policies.
RFP Execution: Manage the RFP process, including engaging with vendors, coordinating demos, evaluating proposals, and making recommendations based on technical and financial considerations.
Tool Implementation: Lead the implementation of the selected PAM tool, including installation, configuration, and integration with existing systems. Ensure that the solution meets all security and compliance requirements.
Customization and Optimization: Customize and optimize the PAM tool to fit the specific needs of the organization. This may include scripting, policy configuration, and workflow automation.
Training and Documentation: Provide training to IT staff and end-users on the proper use of the PAM tool. Develop and maintain documentation, including user guides, technical manuals, and operational procedures.
Ongoing Support and Maintenance: Provide ongoing support and maintenance for the PAM solution, including troubleshooting issues, applying updates, and ensuring continuous alignment with evolving security requirements.
Qualifications
Experience: 5+ years of hands-on experience in Privilege Access Management, including scoping, RFP preparation and execution, and tool implementation.
Technical Expertise: Deep knowledge of PAM tools such as CyberArk, BeyondTrust, Thycotic, or similar. Experience with access control, identity management, and security frameworks.
Security Knowledge: Strong understanding of cybersecurity principles, including least privilege, role-based access control, and compliance standards such as NIST, ISO 27001, and SOX.
Problem-Solving Skills: Ability to troubleshoot complex security issues and develop creative solutions to meet business needs.
Communication Skills: Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
Certifications: Relevant certifications such as CISSP, CISM, or PAM-specific certifications are a plus.
The salary range for this role is US$110,000 - US$150,000
