Senior IT Security Analyst
We are seeking a Senior IT Security Analyst to help protect critical systems, data, and services across a complex technology environment. In this role, you will assess security risks, monitor infrastructure and applications for threats, investigate suspicious activity, and coordinate effective responses to incidents. You will work closely with infrastructure, cloud, software development, compliance, and business teams to strengthen security controls and promote secure technology practices.
Your responsibilities will include analysing security alerts and event data, conducting vulnerability assessments, supporting penetration testing activities, and managing the remediation of identified weaknesses. You will contribute to the development and maintenance of security policies, standards, procedures, and technical documentation. The role will also involve supporting identity and access management, endpoint protection, network security, encryption, logging, and security monitoring capabilities. You will lead or contribute to incident investigations, prepare clear reports for technical and non-technical stakeholders, and help ensure that lessons learned are incorporated into future improvements.
To succeed in this position, you should have substantial experience in information security, cybersecurity operations, or a related IT discipline, together with a strong understanding of security frameworks, risk management principles, and threat detection techniques. Experience with SIEM platforms, vulnerability management tools, endpoint detection and response solutions, cloud security, and incident response processes is highly desirable. Relevant professional certifications, such as CISSP, CISM, GIAC, CompTIA Security+, or equivalent, would be advantageous. You should be analytical, organised, and confident working independently while collaborating effectively with colleagues and stakeholders. The ability to communicate complex security issues clearly, prioritise competing demands, and maintain a current understanding of emerging threats is essential.
