Tom Brooker
About the Role
IT Security Generalist
The Opportunity
If your current role has you fixing the same security gaps over and over with no real mandate to change anything, this one is different. You would be stepping into an environment where IT security is treated as core business, not a compliance box to tick, and where your voice carries real weight in project decisions.
This is a senior, hands-on role covering everything from architecture to incident response. You would work across systems where the consequences of getting it wrong are genuinely significant, and where the investment in doing it right reflects that.
The Role
Your day to day would include:
- Advising IT and infrastructure projects on integrating security requirements from the ground up
- Testing and evaluating IT, cloud, network and OT systems against defined security standards
- Designing, coordinating and developing technical security measures and architectures
- Carrying out third-level analysis within the SOC
- Analysing security incidents, coordinating the response and driving sustainable remediation
- Contributing to the ongoing development of the central IT security architecture and standards
The Company
Our client operates critical infrastructure where security failures are not an option. It is a technically mature organisation with an established SOC function and a genuine investment in OT and network security, not just IT. You would be joining a business where security has a seat at the table on major projects, rather than being brought in after the fact.
What You'll Need
- Completed IT training or a degree in information technology, or a comparable qualification
- Several years of experience in IT security, ideally within a highly regulated or safety-critical environment
- Strong knowledge of XDR systems, network and cloud security, identity and access management, and IT infrastructure
- Experience hardening Linux and Windows servers and endpoints
- Experience with security architectures such as Zero Trust, vulnerability management and OT security
- Experience with ISO 27001 and/or BSI IT-Grundschutz, and implementing regulatory security requirements
