Project Manager IAM

We are looking for a project manager within identity and access management for the cybersecurity function in an international group.

You own the IAM project from idea to management, with responsibility for both delivery and business value.

About the client

The client is an international group with operations in several countries. The assignment lies within the group's cybersecurity function, where identity and access management is its own program with several parallel technical deliveries.

The environment is Microsoft-heavy with Active Directory, Entra ID, B2B and B2C flows and Identity Governance, in combination with an IAM or PAM platform. The working language is English and the teams are geographically dispersed.

Location Stockholm. The assignment runs from October 2026 to March 2027.

About the role

You take full responsibility for the project throughout the entire lifecycle, set the mission and OKRs, and translate them into a prioritized roadmap and a team backlog that stakeholders understand.

The role is as much technical as it is steering. You lead a cross-functional team of engineers, define MVPs, and scale down deliberately to get fast feedback in the delivery.

You manage your own development.
