Enterprise IAM Architect, Global
Location: can be based in one of our AIG offices inLondon (UK), Dublin (Ireland), Reston, VA (USA), or Charlotte, NC (USA)
Make your mark in Information Technology
At AIG, technology is at the heart of everything we do, from underwriting risks to processing claims. The Information Security Office (ISO) works closely with the Information Technology (IT) team equipping our colleagues with the latest tools to complete their work efficiently, with the highest standards of excellence. The team is responsible for shielding the company’s systems from security risks, while designing technology strategies that enable AIG’s businesses to achieve their goals. Innovation in IT drives innovation across the organization.
How you will create an impact
The Enterprise IAM Architect is accountable for defining and governing the enterprise Identity and Access Management (IAM) target state and shaping the transformation portfolio required to achieve it. This role sits within the Information Security Office (ISO), within the Enterprise Security Architecture function, focusing on process design, risk reduction, control effectiveness, and measurable business value.
AIG currently operates an identity ecosystem that includes (as representative examples) technologies such as Microsoft Entra ID, hybrid Active Directory, Okta (Workforce and Customer Identity), SailPoint IdentityIQ (IIQ), Microsoft Intune, Windows Hello for Business, and HYPR. These are examples of the current operating environment; however, the role is not product-bound and is expected to remain outcome- and value-led.
Delivery & Engagement Model
IAM delivery execution is managed through the ISO Program Management Office (PMO) in partnership with the relevant engineering, operational teams (e.g. IAM, security, infrastructure, and applications) and the business. This role shapes and governs delivery by defining architectural intent, control outcomes, sequencing, and design governance—ensuring initiatives remain aligned to roadmap objectives and value/risk outcomes.
The Global, Enterprise IAM Architect will focus on group managed entities (e.g. US, EMEA and UK) and will support and guide the non-group managed entities (e.g. Israel, China).
Responsibilities
Strategic Accountability
You will be accountable for:
•
Defining and maintaining the workforce IAM and customer IAM (CIAM) strategy and target-state architecture
•
Developing and governing multi-year roadmaps, including transition states and sequencing
•
Working with other domain leads and architects to define IAM-related projects and transformation initiatives
•
Translating capability gaps and risk exposure into structured, fundable initiatives aligned to enterprise priorities
•
Establishing outcome measures and architectural guardrails to ensure initiatives deliver measurable risk and control improvements
•
Providing architectural governance and approval for identity-related initiatives, including standards, patterns, design reviews, and exception management
•

•
Risk reduction objectives and control outcomes
•
Scope boundaries, assumptions, and architectural intent
•
Success metrics and measurable value realization
