Cyber Security Operations Manager
We are seeking an experienced Cyber Security Operations Manager to lead the day-to-day operation and continuous improvement of a modern security operations function. You will be responsible for overseeing the detection, investigation and response to cyber security incidents, ensuring that threats are identified and contained quickly and effectively. The role will involve managing security monitoring, incident response, vulnerability management, threat intelligence and security event escalation processes across a complex technology environment.
You will lead and develop a team of security analysts and specialists, setting priorities, allocating resources and promoting a strong culture of collaboration, accountability and continuous learning. Key responsibilities will include maintaining operational procedures and playbooks, coordinating major incident response, reviewing security alerts and investigations, monitoring service performance, and producing clear reports and metrics for senior stakeholders. You will also work closely with infrastructure, applications, risk, compliance and technology teams to improve security controls, support security tooling and ensure that lessons learned from incidents are translated into practical improvements. The role may include participation in an out-of-hours escalation or on-call rota.
Applicants should have significant experience in cyber security operations, security incident management or a related leadership role, together with a strong understanding of security monitoring and response technologies such as SIEM, EDR, vulnerability management and threat intelligence platforms. Experience of leading technical teams, managing third-party providers and developing operational processes is essential. You should be confident assessing risk, making informed decisions under pressure and communicating complex security matters to both technical and non-technical audiences. Relevant professional certifications or equivalent practical experience are desirable, along with knowledge of recognised security frameworks and standards. The successful candidate will demonstrate sound judgement, strong organisational skills, a proactive approach and a commitment to improving resilience in a constantly changing threat landscape.
