## Description

A well-established professional services firm is hiring an IT Security Analyst to join a security team of 8, supporting a global technology estate across 1,500 users and 15 offices.

This is a hands-on cyber security operations role, not a pure SOC monitoring seat. You'll monitor security tools, investigate alerts and suspicious activity across endpoint, identity, email and cloud, and lead incidents through to resolution. You'll also help manage vulnerabilities, sharpen detection rules and procedures, support audits and client security questionnaires, advise IT teams on risk, and take part in disaster recovery exercises.

What you'll do

 * Triage and investigate alerts, coordinating containment and remediation
 * Lead incident response: containment, eradication, recovery, evidence and reporting
 * Maintain and improve detection rules, playbooks and monitoring
 * Support vulnerability management, audits and client due diligence
 * Advise IT and business stakeholders on security risk in plain English
 * Contribute to DR and resilience testing
