Senior Cyber Security Analyst
We are seeking a Senior Cyber Security Analyst to strengthen security operations and help protect critical systems, applications, networks, and data. This role will provide expert support across threat detection, incident response, vulnerability management, security monitoring, and risk reduction. You will work closely with technology, infrastructure, application, and business teams to identify emerging threats, assess security weaknesses, and implement practical improvements aligned with recognised security frameworks and regulatory expectations.
Key responsibilities include monitoring and investigating security alerts using SIEM, endpoint detection and response, identity, network, and cloud security tools; leading the triage, containment, investigation, and resolution of cyber security incidents; and producing accurate incident reports, root-cause analyses, and recommendations. You will conduct threat hunting and analysis, contribute to security assessments and vulnerability remediation programmes, review logs and indicators of compromise, and support the development of detection rules and response playbooks. The role will also involve maintaining security documentation, participating in risk assessments, supporting audits, and helping to improve security awareness and operational resilience.
Applicants should have significant experience in a cyber security operations, incident response, threat intelligence, or security engineering environment, with a strong understanding of security principles across on-premises, cloud, endpoint, network, and identity environments. Practical experience with SIEM and security monitoring platforms, vulnerability management tools, incident response processes, and common attack techniques is essential. Knowledge of frameworks such as NIST, ISO 27001, MITRE ATT&CK, or CIS Controls is desirable, as are relevant professional certifications. Strong analytical, communication, and problem-solving skills are required, together with the ability to prioritise effectively, explain technical risks to varied audiences, and work calmly and collaboratively during high-severity incidents.
