Graduate Cyber Security Analyst
We are seeking a motivated Graduate Cyber Security Analyst to join a growing security team and develop practical experience across a broad range of cyber security activities. This is an excellent opportunity for a recent graduate or early-career professional with a genuine interest in protecting systems, data and users from evolving threats. You will work alongside experienced analysts, gain exposure to industry-standard tools and contribute to initiatives that strengthen security controls and resilience.
Your responsibilities will include monitoring security alerts, investigating suspicious activity and escalating potential incidents in line with established procedures. You will assist with vulnerability assessments, security testing, access reviews and the maintenance of accurate security documentation. The role will also involve supporting incident response exercises, reviewing logs and reports, helping track remediation actions and contributing to risk assessments. You may be involved in security awareness activities, policy reviews and projects designed to improve processes, technologies and compliance. Clear communication will be important, as you will regularly explain findings and recommendations to both technical and non-technical colleagues.
Applicants should have a degree, or equivalent qualification, in cyber security, computer science, information technology or a related subject. A foundational understanding of networking, operating systems, information security principles and common cyber threats is required, along with an interest in areas such as threat detection, vulnerability management or digital forensics. Familiarity with tools such as SIEM platforms, endpoint protection systems, vulnerability scanners or scripting languages would be advantageous, but full training will be provided. We are looking for someone analytical, curious and organised, with strong attention to detail and a willingness to learn. You should be able to manage priorities, work collaboratively and handle sensitive information responsibly. Relevant certifications, practical projects, laboratory experience or placement experience will be welcomed but are not essential.
