Cyber Security Engineer
We are seeking a Cyber Security Engineer to help protect critical systems, networks and data against evolving cyber threats. This is an opportunity to join a collaborative technical environment where you will contribute to the design, implementation and continual improvement of robust security controls. You will work closely with infrastructure, software development and operational teams to embed security throughout the technology lifecycle.
Your responsibilities will include monitoring security events, investigating alerts and supporting the timely resolution of incidents. You will carry out vulnerability assessments, coordinate remediation activity and assist with penetration testing and security reviews. You will also help maintain endpoint protection, identity and access controls, network security tools and cloud security services, ensuring that configurations remain effective and aligned with recognised industry standards.
The role will involve developing and maintaining security policies, procedures and technical documentation, as well as contributing to risk assessments, audit activity and compliance reporting. You will keep informed about emerging threats, vulnerabilities and defensive techniques, providing practical recommendations to improve the organisation’s security posture. Where appropriate, you will support security awareness initiatives and help promote secure working practices across technical and non-technical teams.
Applicants should have practical experience in a cyber security, infrastructure security or similarly focused engineering role. You will need a sound understanding of networking, operating systems, vulnerability management, incident response and security principles, together with experience using security monitoring or SIEM technologies. Familiarity with cloud platforms, scripting, identity management, firewalls and industry frameworks such as Cyber Essentials, ISO 27001 or NIST would be advantageous.
We are looking for someone analytical, methodical and confident in communicating technical issues clearly. You should be comfortable working independently, prioritising competing tasks and collaborating with colleagues at all levels. Relevant professional certifications or equivalent practical experience are welcomed. In return, you will have the opportunity to develop your expertise while making a direct contribution to the resilience and security of essential technology services.
