C. PAM Buisness Analyst JD

Job Title: PAM GRC & Business Analyst (Delinea Focus)

Experience Level: Mid-to-Senior Level (5–8+ years)

Role Type: Hybrid (Governance, Risk, Compliance + Business Analysis)

Role Overview

We are seeking a dual-hat PAM GRC & Business Analyst to bridge the gap between privileged access governance, risk management, and technical implementation. This role is responsible for ensuring the Delinea PAM solution (Secret Server, Endpoint Privilege Management) aligns with security policies, regulatory standards, and business needs.

You will serve as both a GRC advisor (audit, policy, risk assessment) and a Business Analyst (requirements gathering, process mapping, user stories). This position is ideal for a professional who understands both why privileged access must be governed and how to translate those needs into actionable technical requirements for the Delinea platform.

Key Responsibilities

Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) Component

Policy & Framework Alignment: Enforce privileged access policies and implementation in line with NIST 800-53, ISO 27001, SOX, PCI-DSS, and HIPAA. Ensure Delinea configurations adhere to least privilege, Just-In-Time (JIT) access, and separation of duties.

Risk Assessments: Perform periodic risk and maturity assessments specific to privileged accounts, identifying gaps in secret management, session recording, and access approvals.

Audit & Evidence Management: Support internal and external audits by preparing compliance evidence, reviewing privileged access logs, and generating audit-ready reports from Delinea Secret Server.

Vendor Risk: Assess third-party integrations with Delinea for security compliance.

Metrics & Reporting: Define and monitor KPIs/KRIs (e.g., orphaned secrets, unapproved access requests, overdue access reviews). Maintain a risk register and controls catalog.

Business Analysis Component

Requirements Gathering: Elicit, document, and prioritize business and technical requirements for Delinea implementations from stakeholders (app owners, IT ops, audit, security engineering).

Process Improvement: Conduct gap analysis of current privileged access request/approval workflows. Recommend automation, role-based access models, and onboarding optimizations.

User Stories & Documentation: Translate requirements into clear user stories, acceptance criteria, and process flows using Agile tools (JIRA, Confluence).

Data Analysis: Analyze privileged account data to identify stale, excessive, or orphaned accounts. Assist in cleansing and classifying accounts for migration into Delinea Secret Server.

Testing & Validation: Support UAT (User Acceptance Testing) for new Delinea features, upgrades, or integrations. Validate that technical changes meet both compliance and operational needs.

Combined (Bridge) Responsibilities

Policy-to-Requirement Translation: Convert GRC policy mandates (e.g., “all privileged sessions must be recorded and reviewed”) into actionable BA deliverables (e.g., “Delinea session recording must be enabled for all domain admin accounts, with retention set to 90 days”).

Stakeholder Facilitation: Lead workshops that bring together audit, security, engineering, and business teams to align on privileged access governance and implementation roadmaps.

Remediation Planning: Identify compliance gaps from audits and work with engineering to produce remediating requirements.

Required Qualifications

Education & Experience

5+ years of combined experience in Information Security (GRC) and Business Analysis (or equivalent roles such as IAM Analyst, Security Compliance Analyst, Technical BA).

Proven experience with Delinea (Thycotic/Centrify) Secret Server and Endpoint Privilege Management (EPM) — mandatory.
