SOC Analyst

Nomios' mission is to build a ‘secure and connected’ future. Organisations across Europe depend on us to help secure and connect their digital infrastructures. In support of our continued UK growth, we are seeking a SOC Analyst to join our 24/7 Security Operations Centre. This is an excellent opportunity for someone early in their SOC career, or for an individual with a strong infrastructure and networking background looking to transition into cyber security operations.

You will be working across a diverse set of customer environments as part of our Security Operations Centre, focusing on investigation, understanding attacker behaviour and contributing to the continual improvement of SOC capabilities.

As a 24/7 SOC Analyst, you will be on the frontline of our Security Operations Centre - monitoring, investigating and escalating security events across multiple customer environments. You will work closely with Senior and Lead Analysts for guidance, development and collaborative investigation. You will use platforms such as Microsoft Sentinel, Google Sec Ops, Defender XDR, Crowd Strike Falcon, Sentinel One and Cortex XSOAR/XSIAM to understand what has happened, how activity progressed and what actions need to be taken.

You will be supported through structured training, cyber ranges, hands‑on exposure to modern SOC technologies and real investigation experience to help you grow quickly.

You will join a modern, continuously evolving SOC run by people who are technical at heart and understand what analysts need to succeed. Career development is a core focus, with clear pathways into Threat Intelligence, SOC Engineering, SOC Professional Services, senior SOC roles and Incident Response for those who want to specialise. You’ll be part of a collaborative, agile team that values curiosity, humour and a genuine interest in technology.

The environment is built around continuous improvement, with everyone having a voice in shaping how the department evolves. Regular team events and knowledge‑sharing sessions create a supportive, engaging place to work.
