SOC Analyst

South of England | On-Site | British Citizens Only | Shift-Based | Open to Relocators |

Must be eligible for DV Clearence

Step into a mission-critical cyber defence environment where every alert, action, and analysis helps protect critical national infrastructure. We're looking for experienced SOC Analysts to join support one of the UKs most secure & diverse SOC environments.

This is a real hands‑on role - not just clicking dashboards. You’ll be working with Microsoft Sentinel, Splunk, and a range of security tools to identify and respond to advanced threats in a highly trusted, maturing SOC environment.

• Monitoring and triaging security alerts across host and network infrastructure
• Conducting threat analysis using SIEM tools, log data, and threat intel feeds
• Supporting incident response from escalation through containment and recovery
• Improving detection rules and playbooks with a threat‑informed approach
• Contributing to a collaborative, experienced team where your input drives maturity

• Multiple years in a SOC or cyber defence role ideally in a high‑threat, enterprise or defence setting
• Strong experience with Microsoft Sentinel and Splunk
• Comfortable with MITRE ATT&CK, threat modelling, and security event triage
• Confident in networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, VPNs, proxies, DNS) and security tooling
• British Citizenship is essential (must meet criteria for secure site access)
• Eligible for SC / DV clearance

Based elsewhere in the UK? No problem. We're open to cleared candidates looking to relocate to join a purpose‑driven team in a secure location. Relocation support can be discussed post‑screening.

• Be part of a team that’s building real capability, not just chasing SLA metrics
• Operate in a tool‑rich, well‑funded SOC that values your voice
• Work on high‑value systems and incidents that genuinely matter
• Shift‑based schedule designed for work‑life rhythm
• Long‑term programme stability with scope for clearance upgrades and career growth
