Who We Are Looking For

We are seeking a detail-oriented Information Security Officer to manage access, identity lifecycles, and security requests across Global Cybersecurity services while ensuring accuracy, service quality, and compliance.

The ideal candidate has experience validating approvals, processing and documenting access requests, resolving issues with stakeholders, and using PowerShell or automation to streamline tasks and reporting.

What You Will Be Responsible For

As a GCS Information Security Officer, you will support the secure and timely fulfillment of access requests by ensuring each request is properly authorized, accurately completed, and appropriately documented.

  • Monitor work queues and escalate requests that lack required information or approvals.
  • Work with stakeholders to clarify requirements and resolve access issues.
  • Support access reviews, entitlement cleanup, orphaned account remediation, and identity and access management controls.
  • Use PowerShell and other scripting tools to validate data, generate reports, automate tasks, and improve operations.
  • Follow security and data-handling standards for confidential or restricted information.

What We Value

These skills will help you succeed in this role:

  • Strong understanding of identity and access management concepts, including least privilege, segregation of duties, role-based access control, and access lifecycle processes.
  • Ability to analyze access request details, identify missing or inconsistent information, and take appropriate follow-up action.
  • Strong attention to detail and commitment to accurate documentation, evidence retention, and audit-ready processing.
  • Working knowledge of PowerShell and scripting concepts, with the ability to create, interpret, or modify scripts that support access administration, reporting, and automation.
  • Ability to manage multiple request queues and priorities in a deadline-driven operational environment.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain access requirements and request outcomes clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Sound judgment when handling confidential information, privileged access, and security-sensitive requests.
  • Collaborative mindset with the ability to work effectively across Global Cybersecurity, IAM, application support, business operations, and technology teams.
  • Continuous improvement mindset with interest in automation, process simplification, and control enhancement.
