Cyber Security Specialist
We are seeking a Cyber Security Specialist to help protect critical systems, data and services from evolving cyber threats. This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced security professional to work across a broad range of technical and operational activities, supporting a strong security culture and contributing to the continual improvement of cyber resilience.
You will monitor and investigate security events, assess vulnerabilities and support the implementation of appropriate controls. Your responsibilities will include responding to incidents, analysing alerts, maintaining security documentation and assisting with threat intelligence activities. You will also contribute to risk assessments, security reviews and the development of practical recommendations that reduce exposure across infrastructure, applications and cloud environments.
The role will involve working closely with technology, risk and business teams to embed secure practices throughout the organisation. You will help maintain and improve security policies, procedures and standards, support audit and compliance requirements, and promote awareness of current threats. You may also be involved in security testing, access reviews, incident exercises and the evaluation of new tools and technologies.
Applicants should have proven experience in a cyber security, information security or related technical role, together with a sound understanding of security principles, risk management and incident response. Knowledge of security monitoring, vulnerability management, identity and access management, network security and cloud technologies would be highly desirable. Familiarity with recognised frameworks and standards, such as ISO 27001, NIST or Cyber Essentials, is advantageous.
You will need strong analytical and problem-solving skills, excellent attention to detail and the ability to communicate technical information clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. Relevant professional qualifications or certifications would be beneficial, although practical experience and a commitment to continuous learning are equally valued. This role may require participation in an out-of-hours incident response rota.
