Full Job Description
Introduction
This Cyber Security Apprentice role is an entry-level position within the Cyber Security / CISO function. It is designed for someone starting their career in cyber security, with no prior cyber security experience required.
About the Employer
Mizuho is not your typical financial institution.
We offer a fantastic opportunity to gain experience within a global investment bank, working on real projects, whilst developing a strong professional network within a bank that prides itself on its inclusive, cooperative and friendly company culture.
We offer the best of both worlds - the feeling of a boutique work environment within a global organisation. Our steady growth in EMEA gives our people at all levels rewarding degrees of responsibility and a richer work experience than a small firm or an established giant could offer alone.
What You'll Do
As a Level 4 Cyber Security Apprentice, you'll gain hands on experience assisting with cyber security monitoring activities, including reviewing alerts, reports and system information under supervision. You will support basic cyber risk and compliance activities, including evidence gathering, documentation updates and follow up of agreed actions.
During security incidents, you will support the Cyber Security team by helping to record information, update logs and follow agreed response processes. Furthermore, you will work collaboratively with Cyber Security colleagues and other IT teams to build understanding of the wider technology and risk environment.
Training Outcome
There is a clear pathway for future career progression within Cyber Security and the wider Mizuho organisation.
