Job Description

The SAP IAM / IAG Consultant will lead the practical delivery and ongoing improvement of identity and access capabilities across the SAP landscape.

The role translates business access needs into secure, controlled and auditable solutions while balancing operational efficiency, risk management and governance expectations.

The position is Dubai-based and works across technology, business and control functions.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design, configure and maintain SAP IAM and IAG processes across relevant SAP environments.
  • Translate business responsibilities and operational requirements into roles, profiles and authorisation structures.
  • Administer access requests, approvals, provisioning, changes and de-provisioning.
  • Assess segregation-of-duties conflicts, critical access and other control exposures, then coordinate remediation.
  • Support access reviews, role recertification and evidence preparation for governance and audit requirements.
  • Investigate access incidents, identify root causes and implement corrective actions.
  • Partner with business owners, process leads, IT teams and control stakeholders.
  • Monitor access controls and improve workflows, role design and governance practices.
  • Maintain configuration, operating procedure, control decision and support documentation.
  • Contribute to SAP security projects, enhancements, testing and controlled releases.

Requirements

  • Practical experience delivering SAP Identity and Access Management or Identity Access Governance solutions.
  • Strong knowledge of SAP user administration, roles, profiles, authorisations and access provisioning models.
  • Working understanding of segregation of duties, privileged access, critical access and periodic access certification.
  • Experience configuring, supporting or enhancing SAP access governance workflows and related control processes.
  • Ability to analyse complex access requirements and convert them into clear security designs.
  • Exposure to SAP security integrations, connected systems or identity lifecycle technologies is valuable.
  • Experience supporting audits, control testing, remediation tracking or access-risk reporting.
  • Comfort working with business process owners, technical teams, auditors and senior stakeholders.
  • Strong analytical capability and a methodical approach to investigation, documentation and problem resolution.
  • Clear written and verbal communication skills for explaining technical access matters to non-specialist audiences.

Benefits

  • Competitive package aligned with the specialist nature of the SAP IAM / IAG position.
  • Regional exposure supporting a diversified retail, distribution and marketing services operation.
  • Ownership of access governance capabilities influencing security, audit readiness and operational continuity.
  • Opportunities to work across SAP security, identity lifecycle management, risk controls and business process improvement.
  • Professional growth through varied stakeholders, evolving access requirements and enterprise technology initiatives.
  • Role based in Dubai within an established organisation in the United Arab Emirates.

Candidate Profile

The role suits an SAP security professional with technical depth, sound judgement and a strong understanding of business controls.

Experience in IAM, IAG, SAP authorisations or access-risk management is relevant, particularly with hands-on configuration and stakeholder engagement.

The successful candidate is expected to handle access information discreetly, stay organised across competing priorities and communicate decisions clearly.
