Agent guide: [/agents.md](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/agents.md). --- # Junior Cyber Security Analyst - **Company:** Vix Technology - **Location:** Manchester, UK - **Experience:** Starter - **Salary:** £25,000.0 - £35,000.0 - **Contract:** Permanent contract - **Skills:** Amazon Web Services, Cloud Computing Security, Cyber Security, Software Vulnerability Management, Information Technology - **Published:** July 24, 2026 - **Apply:** https://www.adzuna.co.uk/jobs/details/5812645554 ## About the Role If you've already gained a year or two of experience in cyber security-or recently completed a degree or apprenticeship with some hands-on industry exposure-and you're looking for a role where you can learn fast, take ownership and work alongside experienced security professionals, we'd love to hear from you., You're naturally curious and enjoy understanding how things work. You ask good questions, communicate confidently with different people and like solving problems rather than simply identifying them. You've already developed a solid understanding of cyber security fundamentals through your degree, apprenticeship or your first role, and you're now looking for an environment where you can broaden your experience across multiple areas of security. You'll probably have around 1-2 years' experience in cyber security or IT, along with a good understanding of topics such as vulnerability management, security risk, secure configuration and incident response. Just as importantly, you'll be organised, collaborative and comfortable explaining technical concepts in a way that makes sense to different audiences. We'd especially like to hear from you if you have experience or exposure to: * Cyber Security, Computer Science or IT through a degree, apprenticeship or commercial role * Security reporting, vulnerability management or governance * AWS or cloud security fundamentals * Security frameworks such as ISO 27001, NIST or CIS * Customer-facing communication or stakeholder engagement * Security certifications such as Security+, CySA+ or similar (or you're working towards one) Don't worry if you don't tick every box-we're much more interested in your potential, curiosity and willingness to learn. Why Vix? ## Description This isn't a role where you'll be pigeonholed into one area of cyber security. You'll get exposure to vulnerability management, customer security reporting, governance, compliance, incident response, bid support and security operations, giving you a broad foundation to build an exciting career. Working from our Manchester office (three days a week), you'll collaborate with colleagues across the UK, France and the USA, helping to protect systems that support public transport networks across the globe. What you'll be doing You'll become a key member of our Security-as-a-Service team, helping customers understand and improve their security posture while supporting our internal teams to deliver secure, resilient solutions. One day you might be analysing vulnerabilities and helping engineering teams prioritise remediation. The next, you'll be producing customer-facing security reports, supporting an audit, contributing to a security bid or working with colleagues across engineering, cloud and IT to embed security best practice. You'll translate technical information into practical advice, help improve the way we manage security across the business and play an important role in building a positive security culture at Vix. No two days are quite the same-which makes this an ideal opportunity for someone who enjoys variety, solving problems and continually learning. ## Related Videos - [You can’t hack what you can’t see](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/41-you-can-t-hack-what-you-can-t-see) - [Thinking Differently - How to Make Money from Cyber Attacks & Cheats](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/745-thinking-differently-how-to-make-money-from-cyber-attacks-cheats) - [Enabling intelligent logistics automation: home-grown Industrial IoT platform at Austrian Post](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2018-enabling-intelligent-logistics-automation-home-grown-industrial-iot-platform-at-austrian-post) - [Containers in the cloud - State of the Art in 2022](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/410-containers-in-the-cloud-state-of-the-art-in-2022) - [Cyber Security: Small, and Large!](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/259-cyber-security-small-and-large) - [Reliable scalability: How Amazon.com scales on AWS](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/983-reliable-scalability-how-amazon-com-scales-on-aws) ## Related Articles - [9 Ways to Make Money Hacking](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/333-9-ways-to-make-money-hacking) - [Why Upskilling And Reskilling is Important For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/428-why-upskilling-and-reskilling-is-important-for-developers) - [System change: restart as developer?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/39-system-change-restart-as-developer) - [The Most Popular IT Jobs on the Market](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/376-the-most-popular-it-jobs-on-the-market) - [Security Basics for Vibe Coders](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/598-security-basics-for-vibe-coders) - [Where to Find Entry-Level Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/397-where-to-find-entry-level-software-engineering-jobs)
