Cyber Security Risk Analyst
We are seeking a Cyber Security Risk Analyst to support the identification, assessment and management of information security risks across a complex organisational environment. In this role, you will work with technology, operational and business stakeholders to understand the risk landscape, evaluate existing controls and recommend practical improvements that protect systems, data and services. You will contribute to a proactive security culture by helping teams understand their responsibilities and make informed, risk-based decisions.
Your responsibilities will include conducting cyber security and technology risk assessments, maintaining risk registers, monitoring remediation plans and preparing clear reports for management and governance forums. You will review security controls against relevant policies, standards and regulatory requirements, assist with audits and assurance activities, and support the assessment of risks associated with projects, suppliers, applications and infrastructure changes. You will also analyse threat, vulnerability and incident information to identify emerging risks, escalate significant issues appropriately and track corrective actions through to completion.
The successful candidate will have experience in cyber security, information security, technology risk, governance or a related discipline, together with a sound understanding of risk management principles and security control frameworks. Familiarity with standards such as ISO 27001, NIST or CIS is desirable, as is experience working with third-party risk, vulnerability management, business continuity or regulatory compliance. Strong analytical, communication and stakeholder management skills are essential, along with the ability to translate technical issues into clear business impacts and recommendations. Relevant professional qualifications or certifications in information security, risk or audit would be advantageous. You should be organised, collaborative and comfortable managing multiple priorities while maintaining accuracy and professional judgement.
