We are seeking a Cyber Security Specialist to help protect critical systems, networks, applications and information assets from evolving cyber threats. The successful candidate will support the development, implementation and continuous improvement of security controls across the technology environment. This role will work closely with infrastructure, software development, service delivery and risk teams to identify vulnerabilities, strengthen defensive measures and promote secure working practices.
Key responsibilities include monitoring security alerts and events, investigating potential incidents, coordinating response and recovery activities, and maintaining accurate incident records. You will conduct vulnerability assessments, support penetration testing activities, review security logs and recommend appropriate remediation. The role will also contribute to risk assessments, security architecture reviews, access control monitoring, endpoint protection, cloud security and compliance reporting. You will help maintain security policies, standards and procedures, assist with audit preparation, and provide clear security guidance to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
