Job description

Passionate about how digital can transform healthcare, for our donors, patients and colleagues? We have an exciting Digital Services team opportunity for a Cyber Security Analyst, to work collaboratively across the Trust and wider NHS Wales, to provide transformative digital systems and insight-led services. We are in an exciting period of change including opening a new world class cancer centre to extend and enhance specialist cancer treatment along with delivery of cancer care closer to home at regional sites. For the Welsh Blood Service, we are transforming blood and transplant services, improving current capabilities alongside developing new services including plasma for medicines. An ambitious digital strategy underpins this, which will revolutionise the way in which we deliver services - from co-producing innovative technologies, working on digital inclusion, to embedding data & insight into our everyday. Our team are here to deliver new digital solutions and excellent everyday digital service, to improve services and outcomes. This is a truly special opportunity and we are looking for talented and passionate people who share our values and can help us realise the Trust\'s ambitions.

• The team are required to monitor cyber security systems, respond to cyber incidents and develop policy, processes and procedures to reduce the likelihood of a cyber security incident and improve cyber resilience.
• The post holder will monitor Trust cyber security systems to respond to cyber incidents and proactively scan for security threats.
• You will assist with cyber security incidents and provide specialist advice and knowledge to support the day-to-day management of operational services, as well as assisting in the development of cyber security training packages for both the team and the organisation. With digital becoming a critical dependency in healthcare, availability of services is essential and we must therefore instil a culture of cyber security from the ground up.
• You will be required to adhere to the cyber security professional code of conduct, and keep up to date with legislation and national policies, as well as assessing security advisories from third parties.
