You're open to a change of direction and a new challenge.

You bring structure, mitigation and education to our organisation. Our records and datasets are vast and varied. This is your opportunity to safeguard critical infrastructure, order and protect sensitive data, and defend against emerging cyber threats. You'll be part of an expert team who protect against thousands of threats every day.

In this role, you'll:


Be hands on across cyber readiness and resilience activities, supporting cyber exercises, vulnerability uplift coordination, threat informed readiness preparation, and data collection for reporting.

You will conduct and support cyber readiness exercises, maintain playbooks, procedures, and registers, and integrate threat intelligence into readiness planning to strengthen organisational preparedness.


You will work directly with cyber tools and OSINT aggregation platforms to monitor, analyse, and correlate open source threat intelligence from security advisories, forums, and public data sources.

The role contributes to readiness metrics, dashboards, and continuous improvement initiatives, delivering visible and practical outcomes across a hybrid working model. NV1 clearance is required.


You are a hands on cyber security professional with foundational experience in cyber readiness, incident response, vulnerability management, and threat intelligence.

You are comfortable working directly across tools and supporting real world readiness and resilience uplift activities within complex environments.

You enjoy collaborating across technical teams, incident responders, and leadership, and are motivated by seeing your work directly improve cyber preparedness and response.

With exposure to real threat intelligence and resilience activities, you bring a practical mindset and a strong interest in embedding cyber readiness across a large, critical infrastructure organisation.
