About the Role
The Senior Security Operations Analyst (SSOA) role is an opportunity for an experienced analyst to help the OSM shape a world class security operations function to protect Queen Mary University against the existing and emerging threats in cyber security. The SSOA will also provide expertise and professional guidance in partnership with the Security Architecture (SA) function in the development and implementation of new tools and processes to drive a security-by-design framework to protect technology deployments across ITS.

The SSOA is responsible for responding to escalations from the third-party Managed Service Provider Security Operations Centre (SOC) and internal Security Operations personnel, interpreting complex technical data and threat intelligence, making time-critical judgements, performing control assessments, and escalating appropriately to raise the alert when indicators of compromise suggest that the university may be under attack.

The SSOA will delegate for the OSM as necessary and will mentor junior members of the Security Operations and wider Information Security team. The SSOA will work with the Information Security Awareness Training & Policy Manager (ATP) and ITS Communications to ensure accurate, timely and effective communications of technology changes effecting the wider university.

About You
The successful candidate will have:

  • Professional information security qualification, such as CISSP or GICH; or a commitment to obtaining a professional qualification.
  • Educated to degree level or equivalent.
  • Experience implementing and tuning Cloud Security monitoring.
  • Experience implementing and tuning EDR/XDR.
  • Experience onboarding Data Loss Prevention (DLP).
  • Experience onboarding a third-party SOC service provider.
  • Experience of implementing and tuning SIEM solutions to optimise alerting.
  • Knowledge and understanding of penetration testing, threat intelligence, Computer Emergency Response Teams (CERT) and Cyber Security Incident Response Teams (CSIRT).
  • Reviewing security events and potential threats directly observed and escalated by junior team members and actioning or escalating to the Operational Security Manager as appropriate.
