What you will be doing?

• Execute end-to-end access provisioning, modification, and revocation for employees and third-party users.
• Perform manual verifications and adjust access rights based on role mapping matrices across various internal systems.
• Access Requests & Incident Management:
• Manage the daily IAM ticket queue, mapping and assigning access rights to supported systems.
• Assist users via daily support channels (chat, email, calls, war rooms) to resolve access issues and permission losses.
• System Recertifications & Asset Governance:
• Regularly review user access across systems to make sure permissions are still valid and needed.
• Reach out to system owners to confirm who should have access, update permissions list, and fix any discrepancies.
• Update internal databases and documentation with current access information.
• Integrations & System Onboarding:
• Support the onboarding of new applications into the IAM framework.
• Participate in discussions with System Owners to help define access rules, role mappings, and user groups for both test and production environments.
• Periodic Controls, Audits & Compliance:
• Execute periodic IAM controls to ensure all processes are working as expected.
• Gather evidence and maintain records to demonstrate compliance with regulatory standards like DORA.

Skills you should have

• Exceptional attention to detail and a strong drive to solve complex, non-obvious problems.
• Persistence and curiosity - you enjoy digging into issues and finding solutions even when they aren't immediately clear.
• An efficiency mindset - you notice repetitive tasks and actively look for opportunities to automate or streamline them, including using AI tools.
• Curiosity, openness to learning, and a willingness to quickly adapt to new tools and processes.
• Strong communication skills to collaborate effectively with system owners, cross-functional teams, and end users.
• Fluency in English and Polish (both written and spoken).
• Previous experience in IAM or IT Support is a plus, but your attitude, problem-solving skills, and eagerness to learn are what matter most.
