In summary, this executive will own the strategy, practices and technology to deliver a world class IAM capability that is frictionless, scalable and secure.

- In recognition of the critical role that IAM plays in protecting the bank and its clients, partner across the Fusion team and the wider Global Cybersecurity organization to ensure IAM is tightly integrated into our wider security architecture and operations.
- Bring an understanding of the developer experience as it relates to entitlements management, understanding the inter-dependencies between application entitlements, platform entitlements and user experience.
- Develop standards, controls, and tools to proactively identify and mitigate risk associated with users gaining illegitimate access to data / systems.
- Lead IAM projects, including those involving authoritative source, identity management, provisioning, authentication, authorization, monitoring and certifications, and auditing and reporting.
- Lead the direction and execution of the IAM roadmap that prioritizes delivery of modern IAM tools, policies, and practices, as well as supports innovation and new business/technology initiatives such as the bank's public cloud deployment.
- Partner with peers in cybersecurity and technology / engineering to ensure the IAM road map is aligned to the broader information security and technology risk strategy, as well as customized to fit the needs of the respective business lines. Leverage knowledge of State Street’s businesses to navigate nuances in operational and technical processes across the respective business lines to anticipate potential roadblocks or challenges.
- Provide oversight with regard to building, configuration, and architecture of one, or more, identity platforms.

DESIRED OUTCOMES
- A consolidated, standardized set of one to two identity and access management platforms.
- Significantly improved user experience for the ~45,000 State Street employees around the world with regard to their ability to access the data and systems they need to be productive.
- Elevation of the IAM function, whereby the team is seen as a thought partner in proposing new and innovative solutions to the business, thus enabling them to move faster and more nimbly, as opposed to the converse.
