Senior SOC Analyst
We are seeking a Senior SOC Analyst to join a high-performing cybersecurity operations team responsible for protecting critical systems, applications, and data. In this role, you will monitor and investigate security events, lead the response to complex incidents, and help strengthen detection and response capabilities across the organisation. You will act as a senior point of escalation for analysts, supporting the effective triage, containment, eradication, and recovery of threats in a fast-paced environment.
Your responsibilities will include analysing alerts from SIEM, endpoint detection and response, network monitoring, identity, and cloud security platforms; investigating suspicious activity and coordinating incident response activities; developing and tuning detection rules, playbooks, and correlation logic; and producing clear incident reports for technical and non-technical stakeholders. You will contribute to threat hunting, vulnerability and exposure reviews, digital forensics, security monitoring improvements, and post-incident lessons learned. The role will also involve mentoring junior analysts, helping define operational procedures, supporting audit and compliance requirements, and collaborating with infrastructure, engineering, and risk teams to reduce security exposure.
To succeed, you will have substantial experience in a security operations centre or a similar incident detection and response environment, with strong knowledge of security monitoring principles, incident handling methodologies, and common attack techniques. Experience with SIEM and EDR technologies, log analysis, threat intelligence, network protocols, cloud environments, and scripting or automation tools is highly desirable. You should be confident working with frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK and be able to communicate complex findings clearly. Relevant certifications such as GCIA, GCIH, GCFA, CISSP, CISM, or equivalent industry experience are advantageous. The successful candidate will demonstrate sound judgement, curiosity, attention to detail, and the ability to remain composed while managing high-priority incidents.
