Security Operations Specialist

Location – Fully Remote

Salary - £75-85k + Bonus + Benefits

Currently working with a UK Fintech firm who are in the process of building out their Cyber Defence capability and looking to bring in a cloud-based Security Operations Specialist.

You will be responsible for managing alerts, investigating and responding to the most complex incidents whilst building out the IR Playbooks and Processes alongside the internal Threat Hunting capability. You will also work closely with the wider SecOps Engineering function to continuously develop rules and automate processes where possible.

Key Responsibilities:

• Act as a lead and technical escalation point on the most complex incidents and investigations.
• Work closely with Security Engineering team to recommend system tuning/configuration improvements.
• Mentor and train junior team members through complex incident response investigations.

Key Requirements:

• Significant experience working in a SOC environment, dealing with and responding to escalated and most high profile incidents.
• Comprehensive knowledge of the Microsoft Security stack – Defender, Sentinel, etc
• Knowledge of various Incident Response techniques and procedures.
• Experience working in hybrid-cloud SOC environments – Azure/AWS preferably.
