Senior IT Security Analyst
We are seeking a Senior IT Security Analyst to help protect critical systems, networks, applications and data within a complex technology environment. This role will contribute to the development and continual improvement of security operations, ensuring that threats are identified, investigated and addressed effectively. You will work closely with infrastructure, software, risk, compliance and business teams to strengthen security controls and promote a proactive security culture.
Key responsibilities include monitoring and analysing security events, investigating incidents and coordinating containment, remediation and recovery activities. You will perform threat hunting, vulnerability assessments and risk analysis, while supporting the configuration and optimisation of security tools such as SIEM, endpoint detection and response, identity and access management, firewalls and cloud security platforms. The role will also involve developing incident response procedures, producing technical reports and dashboards, contributing to security audits, and providing expert advice on projects, system changes and emerging technologies. You may also support security awareness initiatives and help define standards, policies and operational procedures.
Applicants should have substantial experience in IT security operations, incident response, threat detection or a related discipline, together with a strong understanding of network, endpoint, cloud and application security principles. Experience with security monitoring platforms, vulnerability management tools, scripting or automation, and recognised security frameworks such as NIST, ISO 27001 or CIS is desirable. Relevant professional certifications are advantageous. You will be an analytical and confident communicator who can explain technical risks clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. The successful candidate will demonstrate sound judgement, attention to detail and the ability to manage competing priorities in a fast-paced environment while maintaining a strong focus on confidentiality, resilience and continuous improvement.
