Job Description

Help us transform how we protect our customers.

Shawbrook is a fast-growing specialist bank with bold plans for growth, and cyber security is at the heart of it. We’re building an in-house capability to get ahead of infrastructure-level threats and reduce our dependency on third-party providers.

This is a brand-new role, and you'll be our first dedicated Infrastructure Cyber Security Engineer. If you're excited by ownership, visibility, and being part of a hands-on improvement program, we want to hear from you.

What you’ll do

• Own threat visibility and monitoring across our SD-WAN and network perimeter
• Investigate, triage and remediate suspicious activity and vulnerabilities
• Collaborate with internal teams and managed vendors to improve control
• Lead on technical security improvements and proactive risk reduction
• Work closely with engineering teams to shift from reactive to proactive

Tech you’ll use

• SD-WAN (Velocloud)
• Web Application Firewall (F5 Silverline)
• Core networking tools and visibility platforms (we’re building this with you)

What you’ll bring

• Strong infrastructure and network security experience
• Hands-on troubleshooting, root cause analysis and remediation
• A proactive mindset — you won’t wait for alerts
• Knowledge of perimeter security, visibility tooling, and SD-WAN/WAFs
• Comfortable working cross-functionally in a regulated, agile environment

Who you’ll work with

You’ll report to our Head of Corporate Infrastructure, work daily with our Cyber Programme Lead, and partner closely with our Cloud and Desk-side engineers. You’ll also be supported by our CISO and work alongside leading external vendors.

Why join Shawbrook?

• We’re scaling quickly — this is your chance to shape a capability from the ground up
• A hybrid, flexible working culture that values outcome over hours
• Annual bonus scheme + generous benefits + real recognition
• Culture of ownership, clarity and innovation — we like people who make things happen
