Security Operations Centre Specialist
We are seeking a Security Operations Centre Specialist to support the continuous monitoring and protection of a complex technology environment. Working as part of a dedicated security operations team, you will help identify, investigate and respond to cyber threats across networks, endpoints, cloud services and business applications. You will monitor security alerts, analyse events from SIEM and other security tools, and determine the appropriate response based on risk, impact and established procedures.
Your responsibilities will include triaging and escalating incidents, conducting initial investigations, preserving relevant evidence and maintaining accurate case records. You will assist with threat hunting, vulnerability identification, security investigations and post-incident reviews, while contributing to the ongoing improvement of detection rules, playbooks and operational processes. The role also involves collaborating with infrastructure, engineering and service teams to contain threats, coordinate remediation and communicate the status of incidents clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders. You may participate in an out-of-hours or shift-based rota to support 24/7 monitoring and response.
Applicants should have practical experience in a security operations, incident response or cyber defence environment, together with a strong understanding of networking, operating systems, identity management and common attack techniques. Experience using SIEM, endpoint detection and response, vulnerability management or threat intelligence platforms is highly desirable. Familiarity with recognised security frameworks and incident-handling methodologies would be advantageous. You should be analytical, methodical and comfortable making informed decisions in time-sensitive situations. Strong written and verbal communication skills, careful attention to detail and a commitment to continual learning are essential. Relevant professional certifications or formal training in cybersecurity, information security or a related discipline are welcome, although demonstrable hands-on experience will also be valued.
