Position Overview

The Cyber Operations team is dedicated to enhancing safety and fostering public confidence by strengthening NHS England's cyber resilience and empowering the broader health system to achieve similar resilience. This initiative aligns with the Transformation Directorate's mission to provide optimal care and outcomes for the NHS.

Exceptional talent is essential for delivering outstanding health and care services.

The Cyber Operations sub-directorate encompasses four key operational domains:

  • Cyber Security Operations Unit (CSOU).
  • Cyber Delivery Unit (CDU).
  • Cyber Improvement.
  • Chief Information Security Office Function (CISO).

The Cyber Security Operations Centre (CSOC), a component of the CSOU, offers centralized monitoring and response capabilities across NHS England and its systems. The CSOC comprises Threat Operations (ThreatOps), Protective Monitoring, Incident Management & Response, Service Operations (ServiceOps), and Engineering.

To bolster our strategy for enhancing NHS England's cyber resilience, we are seeking two Security Leads to provide consultancy support across the CSOC Pillar. The Cyber Security Operations Centre delivers second-line security analytics and incident response services.

Key Responsibilities

As a Security Lead - Consulting, your responsibilities will include:

  • Facilitating cross-functional initiatives and collaboration among teams, including Engineering, Service Operations, Protective Monitoring, Threat Operations, and Incident Management within the CSOC.

  • Contributing to complex incidents and investigations, supporting large-scale incidents across the NHS network.
  • Demonstrating a comprehensive understanding of technical design principles and producing supporting documentation.
  • Identifying and implementing enhancements within the CSOC, including intra-team and inter-team activities that improve protective monitoring delivery to the NHS.
  • Offering specialized knowledge and expertise across a diverse range of cyber security domains related to Engineering, Protective Monitoring, Threat Operations, and Incident Management.

All NHS Digital/England Cyber Security personnel must possess security clearance at the SC level as a minimum. To comply with National Security Vetting requirements, candidates must have resided in the UK for at least three out of the past five years to qualify for SC clearance. Candidates who have served abroad with HM Government, Armed Forces, or within a UK government role will still be considered. Further information on SC clearance can be found through appropriate channels.

Please ensure you meet these requirements before considering this role. While you do not need to hold SC clearance at the time of application, failure to fulfill the requirements for SC clearance after an offer may result in the withdrawal of the job offer.

  • Information Security Management - Extensive specialist knowledge of information security management processes, tools, and techniques, with the ability to deploy and monitor information security systems and effectively address IT security violations to safeguard organizational data.

  • Information Security Operation Centre (ISOC) - In-depth knowledge of ISOC modules, processes, and technologies, with the ability to detect, respond to, and utilize related platforms and applications for cyber security initiatives.
  • Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) - Comprehensive knowledge of SIEM concepts, procedures, and processes, with the ability to utilize related applications to safeguard organizational networks from cyber threats.
  • Intrusion Detection and Prevention - Proven knowledge of intrusion detection and prevention tools, techniques, and processes, with the ability to identify, resolve, and prevent intrusion activities to protect organizational networks.
  • Threat Hunting - Demonstrable expertise in threat hunting processes, techniques, and procedures, with the ability to proactively identify cyber threats and adversarial tactics targeting the Health and Social Care sector.
  • End Point Security - Highly proficient in Endpoint Security, capable of querying security platforms and creating effective detections. Expert knowledge of endpoint security concepts, issues, and techniques, ensuring compliance of endpoint devices in various scenarios.
