Information Security Analyst - 15 month FTC
We are seeking an Information Security Analyst to join a security-focused team on a 15-month fixed-term contract. This role will support the organisation in protecting its information, systems and services by helping to identify security risks, monitor activity and strengthen defensive controls. You will work closely with technology, risk, compliance and business teams to promote practical, effective information security across the organisation.
Key responsibilities will include monitoring and investigating security alerts, incidents and potential breaches; supporting incident response, remediation and lessons-learned activities; and assisting with vulnerability management, security testing and the tracking of corrective actions. You will contribute to risk assessments, control reviews, security reporting and audit preparation, while helping to maintain accurate records of information assets, risks, incidents and exceptions. The role will also involve reviewing access controls, supporting security awareness initiatives, contributing to policies and procedures, and providing clear advice on security requirements for projects, systems and operational changes.
The successful candidate will have practical experience in an information or cyber security role, with a sound understanding of security principles, risk management, incident handling, vulnerability assessment and common security controls. Familiarity with relevant standards and regulations, such as ISO 27001, NIST or data protection legislation, would be advantageous. You should be analytical, organised and able to assess information objectively, investigate issues and communicate technical matters clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. Experience using security monitoring, ticketing, vulnerability management or governance, risk and compliance tools is desirable. A relevant professional qualification or certification, such as Security+, SSCP, ISO 27001 or equivalent practical experience, would be welcomed. This is an opportunity to make a meaningful contribution to security improvements while working collaboratively in a varied and fast-moving environment.
