Information Security Officer Farnborough | Hybrid | Circa £55,000

We are recruiting for an Information Security Officer to join a growing organisation based in Farnborough.

This is a varied role combining information security, ISO 27001, data protection and hands-on technical support.

The role

You will be responsible for:

• Ensuring support activities follow ISO 27001 and data protection requirements
• Maintaining accurate documentation and audit trails
• Supporting the implementation of security controls and best practice
• Identifying gaps in security processes and recommending improvements
• Working closely with Customer Service, Field Teams, Information Security and Data Protection colleagues
• Communicating technical and security issues clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
• Supporting continuous improvement across security procedures and working practices

What we’re looking for

You’ll ideally have:

• Good knowledge of ISO 27001
• Understanding of GDPR and data protection principles
• Experience troubleshooting hardware, software and network issues
• Knowledge of networking, cloud security and general IT security
• Strong incident triage and problem-solving skills
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Strong attention to detail and organisation

This would suit someone who enjoys being technically hands-on but also wants exposure to cyber security, ISO 27001, compliance and incident management, rather than working in a purely GRC-focused position
