About the position
Own the security engineering agenda for a global cloud platform-driving real change across vulnerability management, SIEM and endpoint protection. Is this you? What you'll be doing (and why you'll enjoy it) Where you'll be doing it What you'll need What you'll get How to apply
You're a calm, hands-on security engineer who enjoys digging into root causes, improving controls, and explaining risk clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders alike. You're comfortable working with minimal supervision, collaborating across engineering and architecture, and you take pride in building repeatable, audit-ready security practices.
You'll lead vulnerability scanning and analysis across customer-facing environments, working with engineering teams to remediate findings and embed security testing into DevOps workflows. You'll support and continuously improve SIEM monitoring-configuring and tuning rules to ensure meaningful alerting-while strengthening endpoint security through Microsoft Intune and centralised monitoring. You'll also play a key role in ISO [Phone Number Removed]; and SOC 2 Type 2 alignment, supporting audits with evidence preparation, dashboards, KPIs, and reusable security patterns. As a trusted senior, you'll provide backup support on network security (Palo Alto), assist with incident response and forensics, and step in for the Security Manager when required.
Our client is a well-established, fast-growing global compliance technology provider supporting financial services organisations worldwide. With an international footprint and a mission focused on trust and transparency, they combine scale with a modern, ambitious engineering culture and a strong focus on governance.
Around 10+ years in information security engineering, strong SIEM/SOAR and vulnerability management experience, and hands-on cloud security exposure (Oracle, AWS and/or Microsoft 365). You'll bring scripting ability (PowerShell, Python and/or Bash), familiarity with ISO 27001 and SOC 2 environments, and firewall management experience (Palo Alto preferred). Strong English communication skills are essential; certifications like CISSP/CISM and exposure to privacy frameworks, PAM, containers, or regulated industries are advantageous.
A senior, high-impact role with global responsibility, varied technical scope, and the chance to shape security capability in a scaling international environment-plus a competitive package aligned to your experience.
