Junior Cyber Security Engineer
We are seeking a motivated Junior Cyber Security Engineer to join a growing security function and help protect systems, networks, applications, and data from emerging threats. This is an excellent opportunity for someone at the beginning of their cyber security career who is keen to develop practical experience in a collaborative technical environment.
Working alongside experienced security and IT professionals, you will monitor security alerts, investigate potential incidents, and support the timely containment and resolution of threats. Your responsibilities will include reviewing logs and events from security monitoring tools, assisting with vulnerability scanning and remediation, supporting endpoint and network security controls, and helping maintain accurate records of incidents and investigations. You will also contribute to security assessments, access reviews, system hardening activities, and the development of clear technical documentation and reports. Where required, you may support user awareness initiatives and help communicate security guidance to colleagues across the business.
The successful candidate will have a foundational understanding of cyber security principles, including threat detection, incident response, vulnerability management, identity and access management, and common network security concepts. Familiarity with tools such as SIEM platforms, vulnerability scanners, endpoint protection solutions, or cloud security services is desirable. You should be analytical, curious, and comfortable investigating problems methodically, with strong attention to detail and a willingness to learn. Good written and verbal communication skills are essential, as is the ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a team. Relevant qualifications, certifications, practical projects, or experience in an IT support or security environment will be advantageous.
