Job Summary

We are seeking a highly skilled Cyber Security Operations Centre Analyst to join our team at UK Power Networks. As a key member of our Information Systems Department, you will play a critical role in supporting our vision to become the best performing DNO.

The successful candidate will be responsible for monitoring and evaluating cyber security events and alerts, responding to incidents, and analysing information from various data sources. You will also be required to create reports on specific incidents and trends in threats, and communicate the findings to partners.

This is an exciting opportunity for a motivated and experienced professional to join our team and contribute to the delivery of our cyber security strategy.

  4. Threat Hunting: Review basic threat intelligence and indicators of compromise (IOC) to search for known cyber threats within the UKPN network, which have evaded our automated security tools and defences and will persist if not detected.
  5. Continuous Improvement: Recommend improvements to security event detection and mitigation strategies based on ongoing threat analysis.
