This role involves managing Identity and Access Management (IAM) engagements for EY clients across the UK and Ireland. Responsibilities typically include designing IAM strategies, leading implementation projects, improving access governance, advising on privileged access and identity lifecycle controls, and managing client relationships and delivery teams. Candidates are expected to have several years of cybersecurity or IAM consulting experience, with knowledge of technologies such as Microsoft Entra ID, Active Directory, SailPoint, CyberArk or similar platforms. Strong understanding of access management, security controls, risk, compliance and relevant frameworks is important. The role also requires excellent communication, stakeholder management, problem-solving and project leadership skills. Professional certifications such as CISSP, CISM, SABSA or platform-specific credentials would be advantageous.
EY, formerly Ernst & Young, is one of the world's largest professional services organisations and a member of the Big Four. It provides assurance, consulting, strategy and transactions, and tax services to businesses, governments and other institutions. EY operates globally, helping clients respond to changes in technology, regulation, markets and customer expectations. Its Technology Consulting practice supports organisations with cybersecurity, cloud, data, enterprise platforms, digital transformation and technology operating models. In Ireland, EY has a significant presence, particularly in Dublin, and works with clients across financial services, government, healthcare, consumer products and other sectors. The company places emphasis on teamwork, professional development, innovation and building trusted relationships with clients. Employees commonly receive structured training, access to international projects and opportunities to develop specialist or leadership careers.
Ireland offers strong opportunities in cybersecurity, technology consulting, software, pharmaceuticals, financial services and multinational operations, with Dublin as the main employment hub. Cork, Galway and Limerick also have growing technology and life-sciences sectors. Irish workplace culture is generally collaborative, informal and relationship-focused, while English is the main business language. The lifestyle combines lively cities, music and arts with accessible coastlines, countryside and outdoor activities. Dublin rents and housing competition are high, so relocation planning and budgeting are important; other cities may offer lower costs but fewer roles. EU, EEA and Swiss citizens can work without a visa. Non-EEA professionals usually need an employment permit, such as a Critical Skills Employment Permit where the role and salary qualify, or a General Employment Permit. Applicants should verify current salary thresholds, occupation eligibility and family-relocation rules with Ireland's immigration authorities.
