About the role
We're looking for a Senior Security Analyst to join our Managed Security Services team, supporting a portfolio of enterprise customer environments across security monitoring, incident investigation, threat hunting, detection improvement and customer security outcomes.
This is a hands on senior security operations role for someone who can operate independently, make sound decisions during investigations and provide guidance to both customers and less experienced analysts.
You'll work across a broad range of customer environments and technologies, combining day-to-day security operations with deeper investigative work, detection tuning, threat hunting, continuous improvement and mentoring.
What you'll be doing
Lead and perform security investigations across enterprise customer environments
Analyse security events using SIEM platforms such as Microsoft Sentinel and Splunk
Investigate suspicious activity across identity, cloud, endpoint and network telemetry
Support incident response activities including investigation, scoping, containment, escalation and customer communication
Act as a senior escalation point for complex security incidents and investigations
Tune and optimise existing detections to reduce false positives and improve detection quality
Develop new customer‐specific detections and security use cases where required
Lead and contribute to threat hunting activities driven by threat intelligence, customer concerns or emerging attack techniques
Identify gaps in logging, detections and security visibility and recommend improvements
Support vulnerability management activities, including reviewing and prioritising findings
Translate technical findings into clear customer recommendations and security outcomes
Contribute to automation, tooling improvements and broader SOC capability development




Mentor and support junior analysts, helping improve investigation quality and decision‐making across the team
Collaborate with specialist CyberCX teams, including incident response and broader managed security capabilities
Participate in the team's rotating after-hours on‐call roster
What you'll bring
Strong experience working in a SOC, MSSP, MDR or security operations environment
Demonstrated experience leading or independently handling security investigations
Hands‐on experience with a SIEM such as Microsoft Sentinel, Splunk or a comparable platform
Experience with EDR/XDR platforms such as Microsoft Defender, CrowdStrike or Cortex XDR
Strong understanding of identity and account compromise scenarios, including cloud and Microsoft environments
Exposure to Microsoft Azure, Entra ID or broader cloud security environments
Practical understanding of incident response, containment and escalation
Experience analysing logs and correlating activity across multiple security data sources
Experience with detection tuning, alert optimisation and ideally developing current detection logic
Practical threat hunting experience, including working from intelligence, TTPs or suspicious indicators
A good understanding of attacker behaviours and frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK;
The ability to look beyond the alert itself and understand the customer, business impact and security outcome
Strong judgement and the confidence to make recommendations during ambiguous or high‐pressure situations
Experience communicating technical findings clearly to customers or senior stakeholders
Experience mentoring or supporting less experienced analysts
