• Experience of defensive cyber operations, vulnerability management, protective monitoring and incident response.
• You can handle multiple competing priorities in a fastpaced environment working effectively with technical and nontechnical business owners face to face and virtually.
• You are able to communicate (verbal and written) with stakeholders up to executive level in nontechnical terms while accurately describing the process workflows of security incident management, security response and vulnerability management.

Our culture

Rachel Stimpson, Senior Security Analyst says: "I owe my career to EDF as I was given the chance to completely retrain in Cyber Security and it is the best thing I ever did. I have a challenging and fulfilling work load with great training and development opportunities, I also appreciate the work life balance and benefits that EDF provide. As a busy working mother, it is invaluable to me that I am able to work flexibly when I need it so I don't miss my children's school events. I find the benefits really handy for saving money and I am accumulating voucher points to help with next year's Christmas presents already Our ability to work flexibly has allowed us to retain an excellent Analyst who needed to move up North and has provided another Analyst with the means to visit his home country for an extended break without using his entire annual leave balance to do so. EDF has embraced the needs of a modern workforce which makes it an exceptional employer and one I personally couldn't recommend highly enough."

At EDF, everyone's welcome.
