The management of Joiners, Movers and Leavers (JML) has become one of the most pressing challenges for IT leaders. With hybrid workforces, multiple systems and increasingly stringent compliance demands, staying on top of JML workflows isn’t just an operational concern, it’s a strategic imperative.
Yet many organisations still rely on fragmented, manual processes that are prone to delays, errors and security risks. If you’re spending more time reacting to access requests or offboarding tasks than planning proactive IT strategy, you’re not alone.
The good news? There’s a better way!
The Hidden Cost of Poor JML Management
Managing user lifecycles sounds straightforward, but in reality, it’s a maze of disconnected departments, delayed communications and manual inputs.
-
Joiners often arrive without the right access or equipment on day one, harming productivity and first impressions.
-
Movers (internal transitions) frequently fall through the cracks, with permissions either lost or inappropriately retained.
-
Leavers risk becoming security liabilities if accounts and access aren’t revoked promptly.
This not only puts pressure on IT teams, it creates real risk: data breaches, audit failures, compliance fines and internal inefficiencies that can’t be ignored.
Why Seamless JML Processes Are Essential
A robust, automated JML process does more than reduce IT workload. It helps;
-
Ensure security and compliance by automating access rights and deprovisioning
-
Deliver a positive user experience by equipping staff with what they need, when they need it
-
Improve collaboration between HR, IT and line managers
-
Free up IT teams to focus on innovation instead of admin
But building this kind of seamless, scalable JML process isn’t easy, especially when you’re juggling legacy systems, limited resources and growing demands.
