Help the team run regular reviews where managers check that their staff still need the access they have. This includes preparing materials, chasing responses and tracking outcomes.

Support Audits and Documentation:
Help gather information when auditors ask questions about access controls, and contribute to keeping team documentation and guides up to date.
Additional Job Description
Senior colleagues will provide guidance, mentoring and clear explanations along the way - no prior experience of IAM or specific tools is expected.
