IT Security Analyst
We are seeking an IT Security Analyst to help protect critical systems, data and services from evolving cyber threats. This role will monitor security events, investigate alerts and support the continuous improvement of defensive controls across the organisation’s technology environment. The successful candidate will work closely with infrastructure, applications, service management and compliance teams to identify risks, respond to incidents and promote secure working practices.
Key responsibilities will include reviewing and triaging alerts from security monitoring platforms, analysing suspicious activity, supporting incident response investigations and documenting findings clearly. You will assist with vulnerability assessments, remediation tracking, access reviews, endpoint protection and security configuration checks. The role will also contribute to threat intelligence activities, security testing, audit preparation and the development of policies, procedures and technical guidance. Where required, you will help coordinate responses to security incidents, escalate significant risks and ensure appropriate corrective actions are completed within agreed timescales.
Applicants should have practical experience in information security, cyber security operations, systems administration or a related technical discipline. You will need a sound understanding of security principles, network concepts, identity and access management, endpoint security, vulnerability management and common attack techniques. Experience using SIEM, EDR, vulnerability scanning or ticketing tools would be advantageous, as would familiarity with recognised security frameworks and data protection requirements. Strong analytical and problem-solving skills are essential, together with the ability to communicate technical issues clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. Relevant professional qualifications or certifications are welcome, but demonstrable hands-on experience and a commitment to continued learning are equally valued.
