Job description

Internal Abuse Monitoring Analyst (Operations)

The Internal Abuse Monitoring Team plays an important role in protecting DWP systems, information and the citizens we serve.

As an Internal Abuse Monitoring Analyst, you will work as part of a supportive and experienced team, reviewing system activity and identifying unusual behaviour which may indicate inappropriate access to information, misuse of systems or potential breaches of policy.

This is a rewarding analytical role that combines attention to detail, curiosity and problem solving. You'll use information from a range of sources to identify patterns, assess concerns and build evidence-based referrals for further consideration where appropriate.

No two cases are exactly the same. Whether reviewing system alerts, examining user activity or identifying emerging trends, your work will help safeguard sensitive information, support the integrity of DWP services and contribute to maintaining public trust.

This role offers the opportunity to develop specialist knowledge within a collaborative team environment where learning, knowledge sharing and continuous improvement are actively encouraged.
