Threat Monitoring Lead
We are seeking a Threat Monitoring Lead to oversee the day-to-day operation and continuous improvement of a security monitoring function. In this role, you will lead the detection, investigation and response to potential cyber threats across a diverse technology environment. You will provide technical direction to monitoring analysts, help prioritise security alerts, and ensure incidents are assessed and escalated in line with defined procedures and risk appetite.
Your responsibilities will include developing and maintaining effective monitoring use cases, detection rules, dashboards and reporting processes across relevant security technologies, including SIEM, endpoint detection and response, network monitoring and cloud security platforms. You will review threat intelligence, emerging attack techniques and incident trends to identify opportunities for improved detection and resilience. The role will also involve coordinating investigations, supporting containment and remediation activities, contributing to post-incident reviews, and ensuring accurate records are maintained. You will work closely with infrastructure, engineering, risk and compliance teams, as well as external partners where required, to strengthen security operations and promote consistent incident management.
Applicants should have substantial experience in cyber security operations, threat monitoring, incident response or a closely related discipline, together with proven experience leading or mentoring technical teams. You will have strong knowledge of security monitoring principles, attack frameworks, log analysis, threat intelligence and incident handling, along with practical experience using SIEM and related security tools. Relevant professional certifications or equivalent practical expertise are desirable. Excellent analytical, communication and organisational skills are essential, as is the ability to make sound decisions under pressure and explain technical issues clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. A proactive approach, strong attention to detail and commitment to continuous improvement will be highly valued.
