Who we are looking for

As a Senior Information Security Analyst, you will focus on the technical side of information security to ensure IT systems are built and operated securely.

The Information Security team monitors live operations, creating and reacting to alerts and anomalies identified through automated tools or manual analysis.

The Security Operations Centre (SOC) owns the end-to-end process from alert to resolution and is a key part of the cyber incident management process. They review alerts and resolve issues, identifying problems but not necessarily fixing them directly.

You will work closely with the engineering team to define tool requirements and onboard new functionality, as well as collaborate with governance and compliance colleagues to ensure proper data usage.

We utilize industry-leading enterprise tools to identify threats, along with in-house scripts and internet research. The work environment is fast-paced and dynamic, responding to changing business priorities and threat landscapes.

This role is eligible for our hybrid working from home policy.

Preferred skills and experience

• Experience leading information security initiatives throughout project lifecycles.
• Hands-on technical experience securing operating systems and using security tools.
• Experience conducting security investigations.
• Knowledge of industry-standard information security practices.
• Understanding of security technologies and their applications.
• Awareness of PCI DSS at its current version.
• Excellent communication, documentation skills, and attention to detail.
• Strong organizational skills and ability to meet deadlines.
• Pragmatic approach to governance and risk management.
• Flexible, can-do attitude towards work.

Main Responsibilities

• Managing the technical aspects of incident management related to information security.
• Conducting security investigations.
• Overseeing daily security operations and acting as an escalation point.
• Responding to system alerts from monitoring technologies.
• Leading security considerations in project processes.
• Understanding business needs and supporting team members.
• Ensuring security compliance across jurisdictions.
• Creating technical documentation.
• Participating in audits as needed.
