Cyber Security Analyst

Cyber Security Analyst 

Basingstoke/London/Hybrid – ideally you will be based in Basingstoke 3 days a week, however if their London office is closer, they are happy for 1/2 out of those 3 days to be spent in London instead.

Salary: Negotiable 

I’m currently working exclusively with one of the UK’s best-known brands, as they make a major investment in their InfoSec and Cyber capabilities. With an expanding team, this is a great time to join a business that’s growing and taking security seriously.

We’re now looking for a Cyber Security Analyst to join their Detection & Response team. This is a hands-on role working across security tooling, incident response, and improving detection capabilities, with the added bonus of working in a genuinely collaborative and supportive environment.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Monitoring, analysing and responding to cyber threats & incidents
  • Working with technologies like SIEM, EDR, PAM/PEM, XDR, CSPM, Microsoft Defender, and more
  • Supporting threat detection, investigations, vulnerability management, and continuous improvement
  • Helping to shape standard operating procedures, drive automation, and optimise controls
  • Working closely with other technical teams and mentoring junior colleagues

What we’re looking for:

  • Circa 2 years’ experience in a security operations environment
  • Experience with incident response & threat detection
  • Hands-on with Microsoft security stack, SIEM, or other MDR tools
  • DLP experience, BYOD, or vulnerability management exposure would be a real bonus
  • Proactive mindset – someone who takes ownership and pushes things forward
  • Great communication and stakeholder engagement skills

This team values curiosity, initiative, and a collaborative approach – if you’re looking for somewhere you can grow, stretch your skills, and be part of something evolving, it’s a great time to join.
