The Role

You will investigate cyber incidents referred by cyber insurers and law firms, working across a range of cases including business email compromise (BEC), ransomware and unauthorised access.

- Participating in an on call roster,



including out of hours incident response, with overtime paid.
- Travelling to client sites at short notice when major incidents require onsite support.

What We Are Looking For

- 1 to 3 years of experience in a dedicated Digital Forensics role.
- Proven experience running a Business Email Compromise (BEC) investigation end to end.
- Experience supporting at least one ransomware response.
- Strong technical capability, with the confidence to investigate incidents independently and work without close supervision.
- A methodical approach to evidence handling, forensic analysis and technical reporting.

The Opportunity

- Dedicated Digital Forensics team, separate from the SOC.
- Exposure to real world incidents involving insurers, law firms and affected organisations.

- Paid overtime for out of hours work.
