Cyber Security Operations Analyst
An opportunity has arisen for a Cyber Security Operations Analyst to support the monitoring, investigation and improvement of an organisation’s cyber security capability. You will work as part of a collaborative security operations function, helping to identify potential threats, respond to incidents and protect critical systems, data and services.
Key responsibilities will include monitoring security alerts and events using SIEM, endpoint detection and response, vulnerability management and other security tooling. You will investigate suspicious activity, assess risk, support incident response and document findings clearly. You will also help with the triage and escalation of security incidents, contributing to root-cause analysis, containment, remediation and post-incident reviews.
The role will involve analysing logs and security data, identifying trends and indicators of compromise, and assisting with threat hunting activities. You will support vulnerability assessments, track remediation actions and provide advice on improving security controls. Maintaining accurate records, producing regular reports and contributing to security metrics will also be an important part of the position. You may additionally assist with security testing, access reviews, policy updates and the development of operational procedures.
We are seeking someone with practical experience in a security operations, incident response, infrastructure security or related role. You should have a good understanding of common cyber threats, attack techniques, network security principles, identity and access management, endpoint protection and vulnerability management. Familiarity with SIEM platforms, security monitoring tools, Windows and Linux environments, cloud technologies and recognised security frameworks would be advantageous.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills are essential, together with the ability to prioritise effectively in a fast-paced environment. You will be comfortable communicating technical information to both technical and non-technical audiences, working collaboratively and maintaining composure during security incidents. Relevant professional certifications or formal training in cyber security would be beneficial, although practical capability and a commitment to continuous learning are equally valued.
