  • Identify any potential and actual vulnerabilities in applications, infrastructure, services, software, and systems.
  • Monitor and ensure compliance with defined Policies.
  • Plan, prioritise and implement remediation activities.
  • Provide monthly vulnerability and compliance reports to the Cyber Security Team.
  • Assist with the exception review of user access requests, use of new software or hardware facilities and report findings to the Cyber Security Team.
  • Support the IT team in the provision of service delivery, ensuring the team shares knowledge and works flexibly.

  • Understanding of relevant Cyber Security standards, legislation and regulations including compliance standards
  • Strong technical knowledge of Infrastructure and modern platforms (M365 & Azure in particular)
  • Strong knowledge of cyber security principles, technologies, and best practices.
