Job Description

Cloud Security Analyst – Data Security in a Health / Finance Regulated Environment | BigQuery

Contract Details

• 2-month short-term contract
• £600–£650 p/d Outside IR35
• Fully Remote

The Role

Our client, a global consumer finance platform, is receiving sensitive data from third‑party sources, i.e. medical information, credit scores, other data‑driven insights, via APIs.

This data needs to be securely extracted, stored, encrypted, secured, classified, with appropriate access controls and sensitivity labels applied.

You will be responsible for ensuring the data security, including encryption and key management. The data will primarily be for the US market, so knowledge of HIPAA or HITRUST is fantastic. However, experience with GDPR and ISO 27001 is also ok.

Non‑Negotiables

• BigQuery in‑depth use
• Data security principles and cloud compliance experience
• Encryption (KMS), secrets management, and IAM / RBAC experience

Core Focus Areas

• Data security and encryption across the Cloud, ensuring sensitive third‑party data is encrypted, classified, and labelled appropriately.
• Configure IAM roles
• Role‑based access controls (RBAC).
• Segregation of duties to enforce secure, system‑level access.
• Symmetric or asymmetric encryption.
• Enforce & maintain regulatory compliance under HIPAA compliance standards (US). Prior HIPAA experience is not required – you can read up on this.
• Support security audits, logging, and monitoring to provide compliance evidence.
• Advise on best practice data handling policies and procedures.
• Background in highly regulated industries e.g. healthcare, or finance.

Why Join

This is a high‑impact role where your work will directly influence security design, governance, and trust across the organisation.

You’ll have autonomy, ownership, and the opportunity to set the benchmark for secure cloud data management in a rapidly evolving environment.
