£60,000 - £65,000 + Benefits + Bonus

Hybrid - 2 Days per Week in Bath

Are you a hands-on cyber security professional looking for your next challenge with a fast-growing, forward-thinking financial services group? This is your chance to join a business that’s investing heavily in its security function, giving you real ownership over how it protects its systems, its people, and its clients’ data.

You’ll work closely with the Head of Information Security, playing a central role in shaping security policy, responding to live incidents, and driving forward the tools and processes that keep the organisation resilient. If you want a role with genuine variety, autonomy, and the backing of a business that takes security seriously, this is well worth a conversation.

• Working alongside the Head of Information Security to shape and deliver the organisation’s security policy and strategy
• Implementing and monitoring security controls across systems, networks, applications and customer data, including cloud and on-premises environments (Microsoft 365, Entra , servers, endpoints and network infrastructure)
• Detecting, responding to and remediating cyber incidents, and overseeing vulnerability management and patching in partnership with IT and the wider business
• Running security assessments and testing - configuration reviews, penetration test remediation and risk assessments - and supporting regulatory and audit activity (FCA, GDPR, ISO 27001)
• Advising projects and technology teams on secure-by-design principles, and continuously improving security monitoring, automation and detection capabilities

• 3+ years’ experience in a cyber security role, with hands-on knowledge of Microsoft 365, Entra , Purview, endpoint security, SIEM and vulnerability management
• Proven experience in incident response and security monitoring
• Solid understanding of ISO 27001, GDPR and financial services regulatory requirements
• An advanced security certification such as CISSP, CISM, CCSP, GIAC or equivalent
• Experience conducting security assessments, technical reviews and supporting audit activities
• It would also be great (but not essential) if you had exposure to cloud security, security automation or architecture, FCA/PRA/DORA and cyber resilience requirements, mentoring or leading technical projects, SIEM/EDR/IAM tooling, Microsoft Purview DLP, or KQL/JSON for queries and automation

• £65,000 base salary with discretionary annual bonus
• Hybrid working - just 2 days a week in the Bath office
• 34 days’ holiday (including bank holidays), with the option to buy or sell up to 5 additional days
• Private medical, income protection and life assurance cover
• A generous pension scheme, interest-free season ticket loan, and a paid day off each year for a life event
