The Defra Group Security function within DDTS is recruiting a Security Incident Response Officer.

- Capturing all appropriate information to effectively triage requests and incidents, including establishing whether incidents have Data Protection implications, and log incidents appropriately.

**Skills and Experience**

- Experience supporting investigations and delivering responses, able to deliver quality products at pace, communicate effectively and work as part of a geographically disparate team.
