The Role

You and Your Team

As an Identity and Access Analyst, you will report to the Identity and Access Manager and be part of the Identity and Access team within Technology Operations.

The team works closely with colleagues across Technology and Change, Human Resources, Compliance, Audit and the wider business. You will help colleagues get the right access to the right systems while maintaining the security, control and auditability expected across Vanquis. Success in the role means delivering excellent support, resolving access-related issues efficiently and helping improve our Identity and Access Management services.

As an Identity and Access Analyst, you will:

• Deliver excellent on-site and remote support for access requests, incidents and joiners, movers and leavers, meeting agreed service levels.
• Provide second-line investigation and resolution for access-related issues across business services and applications, while maintaining the bank's security posture.
• Own role-based access and application reviews, keeping access aligned with security policies and the principle of least privilege.
• Support projects and new services by embedding Identity and Access Management requirements, controls and documentation into delivery and business-as-usual processes.
• Work with Information Security, Compliance, Audit and Technology teams to maintain effective controls and identify service improvement and automation opportunities.

What We’re Looking For

• Experience working in Identity and Access Management, ideally within a regulated environment, with knowledge of ITIL-aligned processes.
• Knowledge of SSO, SCIM, Role Based Access Control, and user provisioning and deprovisioning.
• Strong knowledge of Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD), with a sound understanding of infrastructure, applications, Windows and Citrix environments.
• Strong problem-solving, attention to detail and time-management skills, with the ability to handle pressure professionally.
• Clear communication and stakeholder skills, with the ability to explain complex information in an understandable way and contribute to continuous improvement.

You don’t need to meet every requirement to apply - potential and transferable skills are valued.
