Lead Technical Business Analyst

Shura is seeking an experienced Lead Technical Business Analyst to support a major Identity and Access Management (IAM) modernisation program within a Federal Government department.
The program will modernise enterprise identity and access management capabilities, transitioning from legacy identity technologies to a modern, cloud-ready architecture centred on Microsoft Entra ID.
The successful candidate will work closely with business, architecture, cyber security, engineering, operations and delivery teams to analyse complex identity requirements and support the transition to modern IAM capabilities.

In this role you will perform the following tasks but not limited to:

• Lead requirements elicitation, analysis, documentation and validation across complex ICT and IAM initiatives, including discovery sessions and stakeholder workshops.
• Develop current and future-state process models covering identity lifecycle and Joiner-Mover-Leaver (JML) processes.
• Analyse access requests, approvals, provisioning, deprovisioning, reconciliation, identity/workforce data flows, integrations and authoritative sources.
• Develop business and functional requirements, user stories, use cases, acceptance criteria, business rules and requirements traceability, identifying opportunities for automation and standardisation.
• Translate requirements across business, architecture, engineering and cyber security teams, supporting UAT, implementation, business readiness, training and transition to BAU.

To be successful, you will have

• 5+ years’ Technical Business Analysis experience, including demonstrated experience delivering Identity and Access Management (IAM) initiatives within Government or a large, complex ICT environment.
• Strong experience with identity lifecycle and Joiner-Mover-Leaver (JML) processes, including access requests, approvals, provisioning, deprovisioning and identity governance.
• Experience working with Microsoft Entra ID/Azure AD and modern IAM capabilities; exposure to MIM, AD FS, SSO, MFA, Conditional Access, PAM/PIM or similar technologies is highly desirable.
• Demonstrated experience analysing identity/workforce data flows, authoritative data sources, system integrations and dependencies, and translating these into business, functional and technical requirements.
• Strong experience facilitating IAM discovery workshops and stakeholder engagement across business, cyber security, architecture and technical teams, including process modelling, user stories, acceptance criteria, UAT and transition to BAU.
• Baseline security clearance.
