Senior Cyber Security Engineer
We are seeking a Senior Cyber Security Engineer to help protect critical systems, applications and data within a complex technology environment. This is an influential role for an experienced security professional who can combine hands-on technical expertise with a pragmatic, risk-based approach to security engineering.
You will design, implement and continuously improve security controls across cloud, on-premises and hybrid infrastructure. Responsibilities will include developing secure architectures, reviewing technical designs, strengthening identity and access management, supporting vulnerability management, and improving detection and response capabilities. You will work closely with infrastructure, software development, operations and governance teams to embed security throughout the technology lifecycle.
The role will involve investigating and responding to security incidents, leading root-cause analysis, and recommending effective remediation. You will contribute to security standards, policies and technical guidance, while helping to maintain compliance with relevant legislation, industry frameworks and internal requirements. You may also support threat modelling, penetration testing activities, security monitoring improvements and the evaluation of emerging tools and technologies.
Applicants should have substantial experience in cyber security engineering, with a strong understanding of network security, endpoint protection, cloud security and secure systems design. Practical experience with security information and event management, vulnerability scanners, intrusion detection, encryption, firewalls and privileged access management is highly desirable. Knowledge of recognised frameworks such as NIST, ISO 27001 or CIS Controls would be advantageous.
You will be an analytical and collaborative professional with the confidence to influence stakeholders at all levels. Strong communication skills are essential, as is the ability to explain complex security matters clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. Relevant professional qualifications, such as CISSP, CISM, GIAC or equivalent experience, would be welcomed.
This opportunity offers the chance to play a key role in strengthening organisational resilience, shaping security engineering practices and supporting the delivery of secure, reliable technology services.
