JOIN US
We are actively seeking talented Security Incident and Intelligence Analysts to join our thriving security community.
We can’t think of any Cyber Security Intelligence roles as rewarding as this one for those in the profession. Here you’ll safeguard data and systems which protect the most vulnerable in society and which touch the lives of millions of people across the UK every day.
You’ll work with us at real scale and pace, using your skills to make a difference keeping a department of over 84,000 people secure and operational and supporting 20 million customers every day.
Here you will be working in direct support of some the UK Government’s flagship projects. Our ability to pay our customers effectively relies on your ability to provide accurate and timely threat intelligence.
ABOUT YOU
We are looking for Lead Security Incident and Intelligence Analysts in the following areas:

You’ll have a talented team looking to you for advice and expertise, so a depth knowledge and skills in information security and risk, ICT and the cyber threat landscape, a broad range of experience in similar roles and the ability to lead will make you an ideal candidate.
WHERE YOU’LL WORK
We know that the best Cyber Intelligence specialist have a choice of where they want to work, but we believe we offer a unique opportunity to use your skills to work on projects and systems which directly impact millions of people in UK every day.
This role is based at the heart of UK government in central London. Our conveniently-located London digital hub sits in the shadows of the Houses of Parliament and Westminster Cathedral and is just minutes’ walk away from transport links including St James’s Park tube station and Victoria station.
And because our benefits package includes interest-free loans to buy a bike or a season ticket, it’s even easier for you to get to work and start making a difference.
You can also look forward to benefits including a very competitive salary of up to £61,055, a generous leave allowance and a great pension. Get in touch to discuss our full range of perks and benefits.
OUR TEAM
On our team no two days are ever the same. The pace of change is exciting and challenging and you will need to be able to keep up.
We know it’s a difficult job, but we all love it and come in every day excited to meet the challenges ahead and support each other.
We work with a wide range of internal and external cyber intelligence stakeholders across all of Government and Industry to protect the UK’s national interests. You will join a team that is constantly evolving to ensure we meet the full range of threats to the Department.
As a community, and an organisation, we value diversity and we operate flexibly from a range of locations. We have family friendly policies and a culture that encourages people to be authentic and play to their strengths; it’s a great place to work.
BUILDING OUR FUTURE
We believe the work we do really matters, so we’re serious about investing in your ability.
You’ll have access to a huge suite of training and learning opportunities to complement your existing skills and experience and those you’ll acquire on the job, as well as the chance to share knowledge with colleagues from across the security community and via our coaching and mentoring programmes.
If you want to work in empowered, multi-disciplinary teams in an environment which values passion and talent over hierarchy, we’d love to hear from you today.
