This role is primarily focused on physical threat intelligence, while remaining aligned with the broader threat intelligence mandate. The Physical Threat Intelligence Analyst is responsible for proactively identifying, monitoring, analysing, and assessing physical security threats that could affect the organisation’s people, assets, operations, reputation, and overall resilience. The role requires systematic collection and evaluation of intelligence from a broad range of sources, including open-source reporting, vendor intelligence, professional networks, and internal stakeholders. By monitoring global, regional, and local risk developments, the analyst produces timely, actionable, and clearly articulated threat assessments that support security operations, executive decision-making, crisis management, incident response, and business continuity planning. This position plays a critical role in helping the organisation anticipate emerging risks, understand their potential business impact and implement appropriate mitigation measures in a dynamic threat environment. This is an emerging leadership role suited to a candidate with prior experience managing intelligence analysts, developing team capability and delivering time-sensitive intelligence products in support of Regional Intelligence Analysts across Deutsche Bank. In addition to producing high-quality analysis, the candidate will lead the Information Processing & Research team (IPR), an internal team formed within the Threat Intelligence function. The IPR team transforms structured and unstructured data from multiple sources into high-quality intelligence, enabling data-driven threat identification and informed decision-making through robust collection and validation processes. The team partners with regional analysts through an intelligence-led approach to deliver actionable insights and identify key threat drivers, trends and patterns across relevant areas of focus.
