Sr SOC Analyst
We are seeking a skilled Sr SOC Analyst to join a dedicated security operations team responsible for protecting critical systems, applications, and data. In this role, you will monitor and investigate security events across a 24/7 environment, identify potential threats, and coordinate appropriate responses. You will use SIEM, EDR, network monitoring, threat intelligence, and vulnerability management tools to detect suspicious activity, validate alerts, and assess the impact and severity of incidents.
You will lead the investigation and containment of complex security incidents, documenting findings, maintaining accurate case records, and providing clear escalation updates to technical and business stakeholders. Responsibilities will include developing and tuning detection rules, analysing logs and indicators of compromise, performing threat hunting, supporting digital forensics, and contributing to incident response playbooks. You will also help identify recurring issues, recommend improvements to security controls, and support post-incident reviews. As a senior member of the team, you will provide guidance to junior analysts, contribute to shift handovers, and promote consistent operational standards.
The successful candidate will have substantial experience in a SOC, incident response, or cybersecurity operations role, with strong knowledge of security monitoring, network protocols, endpoint security, identity and access management, and common attack techniques. Experience with platforms such as Microsoft Sentinel, Splunk, QRadar, CrowdStrike, Defender, or comparable technologies is highly desirable. Relevant certifications such as Security+, CySA+, GCIH, GCIA, CISSP, or equivalent practical experience will be valued. You should be confident working under pressure, able to prioritise multiple investigations, and capable of communicating complex technical issues clearly. A methodical approach, strong analytical skills, sound judgement, and a commitment to continuous learning are essential.
