We are seeking a skilled Security Systems Administrator to manage, maintain and improve the technical systems that support a secure and resilient operating environment. In this role, you will administer security platforms, monitor infrastructure, investigate alerts and help ensure that systems, applications and data remain protected against evolving threats. You will work closely with technology teams and business stakeholders to implement effective controls, resolve incidents and support continuous improvement across the security function.
Your responsibilities will include configuring and maintaining security tools such as firewalls, endpoint protection, identity and access management, vulnerability scanners, security information and event management platforms, and network monitoring systems. You will review logs and alerts, investigate suspicious activity, coordinate incident response and document findings and remedial actions. The role will also involve managing user access, supporting patching and hardening activities, contributing to security assessments, maintaining technical documentation and assisting with compliance reporting. You may also participate in security projects, system upgrades, testing exercises and the development of operational procedures.
The successful candidate will have proven experience in systems administration, cybersecurity operations or a related technical environment, together with a strong understanding of network security, operating systems, authentication protocols, access controls and common cyber threats. Experience with cloud environments, scripting or automation, vulnerability management and security monitoring tools would be advantageous. You should be analytical, organised and able to prioritise effectively when responding to incidents or competing deadlines. Strong communication skills are essential, as is the ability to explain technical issues clearly to both technical and non-technical colleagues. Relevant professional certifications or equivalent practical experience are welcomed. This is an opportunity to contribute to a collaborative security team while helping strengthen the reliability, visibility and protection of critical systems.
