Junior Security Analyst (Basingstoke)
We are seeking a motivated Junior Security Analyst to join a collaborative cyber security team in Basingstoke. This is an excellent opportunity for someone at the start of their cyber security career to develop practical experience while supporting the protection of systems, networks and data. You will work alongside experienced analysts and technical teams, gaining exposure to security monitoring, incident response and a range of security technologies.
Your responsibilities will include monitoring security alerts and logs, investigating unusual activity, escalating potential incidents and maintaining accurate records of actions taken. You will assist with triaging phishing reports, malware alerts and other security events, helping to determine their impact and urgency. The role will also involve supporting vulnerability management activities, reviewing security dashboards, contributing to threat intelligence research and helping maintain clear security documentation and procedures. You may also assist with access reviews, audit requests, security awareness activities and the preparation of regular reports.
Applicants should have a genuine interest in cyber security and a basic understanding of networking, operating systems, common attack techniques and information security principles. Familiarity with security monitoring tools, SIEM platforms, ticketing systems or vulnerability scanners would be beneficial, although full training will be provided. Relevant qualifications or certifications, such as CompTIA Security+, Microsoft security certifications or a degree in cyber security, computing or a related subject, are desirable but not essential. We are looking for someone analytical, organised and eager to learn, with strong attention to detail and the confidence to communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical colleagues. The successful candidate must be willing to participate in structured learning and follow established security processes carefully.
