IAM Programme Delivery Lead

IAM Programme Delivery Lead

Location : Cedar Rapids, IA (Hybrid 3 days onsite)

Duration : 12 months

Position type : W2

Role Overview

Aegon is seeking a hands-on delivery leader to take accountability for the successful execution of its early-stage Identity & Access Management (IAM) programme.

This role goes beyond traditional project management - we need someone who can set direction, lead cross-functional collaboration, and ensure the organisation realises the programme's objectives. You will be the primary driver of progress, bridging business and technology teams, and establishing delivery discipline from the outset.

While you will work with a dedicated Project Manager to track day-to-day tasks, your focus will be on orchestrating stakeholders, shaping the delivery approach, and resolving blockers across HR, Procurement, Risk, IT Security, and other functions. Awareness of IAM concepts - particularly SailPoint - is beneficial, but strategic leadership and delivery ownership are the core requirements.

Key Responsibilities

• Own the delivery of the IAM programme , ensuring agreed outcomes and benefits are achieved.
• Set and communicate the delivery approach, priorities, and success measures.
• Build and maintain strong stakeholder relationships across all involved business units and technical teams.
• Facilitate alignment on requirements, dependencies, and strategic decisions.
• Proactively identify risks, dependencies, and conflicts - driving resolution at the right governance level.
• Provide clear, outcome-focused reporting to senior leadership and programme sponsors.
• Maintain delivery momentum in a complex and evolving environment.
