Customer facing SOC Analyst
£55k
West Midlands
Are you stuck working shifts in a SOC, wanting to get more involved with customer's security issues?
I'm working with an exciting growing customer who deliver Managed Security Services and have a great new opportunity, where a sizable technical team are delivering Intrusion Detection / SIEM / other technical Security Services to their customers. You will remain technically hands-on, whilst working with customers to problem solve technical issues, alongside great training to get you where you want to be.
We're keen to talk to SOC analysts with great communication skills, someone who really wants to help companies protect themselves from cyber-attacks. If you love solving technical problems, but want to get more involved in the customer side of things, then this is the perfect role for you.
You'll also get to take advantage of:
- No shifts! Daytimes only.
- GREAT training and career development opportunities (Including paid certs!)
- Private healthcare.
- Excellent holiday allowance.
- Flexible working.
You'll ideally have a couple years' experience working in a SOC, and be technically aware of the sort of security threats companies face. You'll have experience with status reporting and chasing up action. Whilst this is largely a customer facing role, you'll still spend some time in the SOC with the team - so you will still be able to stay up to date with all the latest security tools and remain technically hands-on.
Training is extremely strong and the working environment is a very interesting one.
*Due to the nature of the work, eligible candidates will need to be eligible for SC level clearance, with 5 years unbroken work history/residency in the UK.*
Some things we would love to see on your CV:
- Experience working in a SOC environment
- Experience with any SIEM tool
- A real passion for cyber security
- Knowledge of Firewalls, IDS
- Experience in scripting, low-level network protocols
- Knowledge of security threats
- GREAT communication skills
- Experience with log ingesting/architecture
- Status reporting
- Ability to solve technical problems
