<div class="earcuposdescription"><div class="earcuposdescriptiontitle">About the role:</div><div class="earcuposdescriptionnote"><p>At <strong data-start="258" data-end="279">Holland &amp; Barrett</strong>, we're over a century old — and building like a startup. Our shift to a <strong data-start="352" data-end="387">fully cloud-native organisation</strong> has created a rich mix of internal, partner, and customer-facing systems. To secure this at scale, we're building a <strong data-start="504" data-end="548">modern IAM capability from the ground up</strong> — and we're looking for a hands-on IAM Engineer to help bring it to life.</p><p data-start="646" data-end="920">This is a <strong data-start="656" data-end="691">greenfield IAM engineering role</strong> with real technical ownership.
