Associate SOC Analyst
We are seeking an Associate SOC Analyst to join a security operations team responsible for monitoring, investigating, and responding to potential cyber threats. In this role, you will support the day-to-day operation of a security operations centre, helping to protect systems, networks, applications, and data across a varied technology environment. This is an excellent opportunity for someone beginning a career in cybersecurity and looking to develop practical experience in threat detection and incident response.
Your responsibilities will include monitoring security alerts from SIEM, endpoint detection and response, email security, firewall, and other monitoring platforms; triaging and investigating suspicious activity; and escalating confirmed or complex incidents in line with documented procedures. You will help maintain accurate incident records, gather and analyse relevant evidence, contribute to incident reports, and support containment and remediation activities. The role will also involve reviewing threat intelligence, identifying recurring trends, assisting with vulnerability and security monitoring activities, and recommending improvements to detection rules, playbooks, and operational processes. You may participate in shift-based coverage, including occasional evenings, nights, weekends, or public holidays.
Applicants should have a genuine interest in cybersecurity and a foundational understanding of networking, operating systems, common attack techniques, and information security principles. Familiarity with SIEM tools, security alerts, log analysis, phishing investigations, ticketing systems, or cloud security concepts would be advantageous. Relevant study, certifications, laboratory projects, or practical experience in a helpdesk, IT, networking, or security environment will be considered. Strong analytical and problem-solving skills are essential, along with clear written and verbal communication, careful attention to detail, and the ability to prioritise work in a fast-paced environment. You should be willing to learn, follow established procedures, handle sensitive information responsibly, and work collaboratively while maintaining a calm and methodical approach during incidents.
