Job description

Cyber Security Engineer (Hybrid | UK)

Hybrid & Tring, Hertfordshire 2 days a week

Cloud

• Network Security

Security isn’t a toolset anymore. It’s an operating model. At Noble Foods, we’re building security that works across Azure, VMware, and our network estate—and we need someone who can make it real, not theoretical.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Securing and governing our Azure environment (identity, policy, logging, controls)
• Hardening and protecting VMware infrastructure
• Strengthening network security across Cisco Meraki
• Working with Sophos MDR to detect, respond, and contain threats
• Driving vulnerability management and secure configuration
• Supporting DR testing and business continuity readiness

This is hands-on security engineering—where visibility, resilience, and response actually matter.

You’ll Need

• Experience in hybrid security environments (cloud + on-prem)
• Strong understanding of Azure security fundamentals
• Networking and segmentation knowledge (firewalls, VLANs, VPNs)
• Incident response / SOC collaboration experience
• A structured, calm, problem-solving mindset
• Flexible working depends on the needs of the business
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills

Why This Role Exists

Newly created additional headcount - because security isn’t just about preventing attacks—it’s about how quickly you recover when things go wrong. You’ll help shape detection, response, and resilience across the entire estate. If you want a role where security is operational, visible, and impactful—this is it.

Why join us?

You’ll work with well-loved, purpose-led brands, all within a collaborative, values-driven culture. Noble Foods is a family‑owned company which began in 1920 and includes successful, milling, poultry, agriculture and consumer foods businesses.
