Senior Cyber Security Engineer
We are seeking a Senior Cyber Security Engineer to design, implement and maintain robust security controls across a complex technology environment. You will play a key role in protecting critical systems, applications, networks and data from evolving threats, while supporting secure and reliable business operations. Working closely with infrastructure, cloud, software development and risk teams, you will provide technical leadership across the organisation’s cyber security programme.
Your responsibilities will include developing and improving security architecture, monitoring and responding to cyber incidents, conducting vulnerability assessments, and supporting penetration testing and remediation activities. You will configure and manage security technologies such as SIEM, endpoint detection and response, identity and access management, firewalls and cloud security platforms. You will investigate suspicious activity, lead technical incident response, contribute to threat modelling, and ensure security risks are clearly documented, prioritised and addressed. The role will also involve creating security standards, advising on secure system design, supporting audits, and mentoring less experienced engineers.
Applicants should have substantial experience in a cyber security engineering or equivalent technical security role, with strong knowledge of network security, operating systems, cloud environments, authentication protocols and security monitoring practices. Experience with incident response, vulnerability management, scripting or automation, and security frameworks such as NIST or ISO 27001 is highly desirable. Relevant professional certifications, including CISSP, CISM, OSCP, GIAC or cloud security credentials, would be advantageous. You should be analytical, methodical and confident communicating complex technical risks to both technical and non-technical audiences. The successful candidate will demonstrate sound judgement, a proactive approach to problem-solving and a commitment to continuous improvement in a rapidly changing threat landscape.
