  • Support security engineering changes through implementation, testing, handover and ongoing operational support.

  • A good understanding of core infrastructure and security concepts, which could include networking, operating systems, cloud, identity, endpoint security, vulnerability management or security monitoring.
  • Exposure to security technologies such as SIEM, EDR, identity and access controls, cloud security, vulnerability management or secure web and email technologies. We do not expect you to be an expert across all these areas.
  • Confidence troubleshooting technical issues and an analytical approach to understanding problems, identifying causes and supporting effective solutions.
  • Some exposure to scripting, automation or query languages such as PowerShell, Python, Bash or KQL would be beneficial, alongside a willingness to develop these skills further.
  • A collaborative and curious mindset, with clear communication skills, a willingness to share knowledge and a genuine enthusiasm for learning and developing your career within cyber security.
