The successful candidate will support the development, implementation and continual improvement of security controls, policies and procedures across the organisation. This role will work closely with technology, risk, compliance and business teams to identify vulnerabilities, reduce exposure and promote secure working practices.
Key responsibilities include monitoring security alerts and events, investigating suspected incidents and coordinating appropriate containment, remediation and recovery activities. You will conduct vulnerability assessments, support penetration testing and security reviews, and provide practical recommendations to address identified risks. The role will also involve maintaining incident records, preparing security reports, contributing to risk assessments, reviewing access controls and supporting compliance with relevant legislation, standards and internal policies. You may assist with security awareness initiatives, technical audits, third-party assessments and the evaluation of new technologies or services.
Applicants should have experience in a cyber security, information security or closely related role, with a sound understanding of security operations, threat detection, vulnerability management, identity and access management, network security and incident response. Familiarity with security frameworks, risk management principles, cloud environments, endpoint protection and security monitoring tools is desirable. Relevant professional certifications or qualifications will be welcomed. You should be analytical, organised and able to communicate technical issues clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. The ability to prioritise competing tasks, investigate problems methodically and work effectively with colleagues and external partners is essential. A proactive approach, strong attention to detail and commitment to continuous professional development will be important in this role.
