Security Operations Centre (SOC) Operator

Reference: trms7yo6dw5war5ofbfh

We are seeking a vigilant and technically capable Security Operations Centre (SOC) Operator to monitor, assess and respond to security events across a diverse technology environment. Working as part of a collaborative security team, you will help protect critical systems, applications and data by identifying suspicious activity and supporting timely, effective incident response. This role requires strong attention to detail, sound judgement and the ability to remain calm and methodical in a fast-paced operational setting.

Your responsibilities will include monitoring security alerts and dashboards, reviewing and analysing event logs, triaging potential incidents, and escalating issues in line with established procedures. You will investigate indicators of compromise, document findings, maintain accurate incident records and support containment, remediation and recovery activities. The role will also involve using security information and event management tools, endpoint protection platforms, vulnerability scanners and ticketing systems. You may contribute to threat intelligence reviews, security reporting, access monitoring, control testing and the continuous improvement of SOC processes, playbooks and operational procedures. Participation in a shift-based rota, including evenings, nights, weekends or public holidays, may be required.

Applicants should have experience in a SOC, IT security, network operations or a closely related environment, together with a practical understanding of cybersecurity principles, common attack techniques and incident management processes. Familiarity with SIEM technologies, firewalls, intrusion detection systems, endpoint security and cloud environments is desirable. Relevant qualifications or certifications in cybersecurity, networking or information technology are advantageous, though equivalent practical experience will be considered. You should be able to interpret technical information, prioritise competing alerts, communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical colleagues, and produce concise, accurate documentation. A proactive approach, commitment to continuous learning and respect for confidentiality are essential.
