Are you looking to join a global software technology company, with their main base of operations here, in the UK, as an experienced GRC Information Security Analyst?

Do you have experience in the GRC Security space with audits, auditors, ISO27001, PCI DSS, SOC2, NIST & current compliance regulations?

If so & you are looking to expand your information Security career, meet new team members, embrace new challenges & join a world-class team – we’d like to hear from you!

Job title: GRC Information Security Analyst. Global Technology company.

Salary: £60K - £65K Basic range + 10% Bonus + Excellent benefits package

Location: Central London office. We offer a hybrid workplace, with a LOT of flexibility for remote. However, due to the nature of the role; dealing with external auditors & internal departments, we have put, roughly, 1-2 days per week on this, in office. Some weeks, it may be zero though! Some weeks, it may be 3 days – flexibility is key.

If you’re an experienced GRC Security Analyst, you’ll already know what the role will entail, but see below for things we’ll need to see in order to be considered:

  • Knowledge and experience of ISO 27001, PCI DSS, SOC2, NIST and CIS benchmarking is essential.

     - Knowledge and experience achieving and maintaining compliance with relevant legislation, such as DPA, GDPR

     - Knowledge of cloud environments (AWS, Azure) & Windows, &/or Linux environments (To be clear: this is NOT a technical, hands-on role. We have a separate security engineering team for that…)

    Things we’d love to see, but are not needed to be considered (& you’ll get experience in by joining us):

  • IT Security Risk & Compliance automated tooling: Drata, Vanta, One Trust or another.

     - If you come with CISA or Lead Auditor certifications, then that would be handy!

    Reporting directly to the IT Security GRC Director, you’ll need strong communications & internal / external stakeholder management skills.

    If all the above sounds of interest & you’d like to find out more, please do apply now, or get in touch for a confidential discussion

How Many Cyber Security Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Cyber Security Job?

If you are trying to build or move forward in a cyber security career, it can feel like the list of tools you are expected to know never ends. One job advert asks for SIEM platforms, another mentions penetration testing tools, another lists cloud security, threat intelligence platforms, endpoint detection, scripting languages and compliance frameworks. Scroll LinkedIn and it gets worse. Everyone seems to “know” dozens of tools, certifications and platforms. Here is the reality most cyber security hiring managers agree on: they are not hiring you because you know every tool. They are hiring you because you understand risk, can think like an attacker and a defender, follow process, communicate clearly and make good decisions under pressure. Tools matter — but only when they support those outcomes. So how many cyber security tools do you actually need to know to get a job? For most job seekers, the answer is far fewer than you think. This article explains what employers really expect, which tools are essential, which are role-specific and how to focus your learning so you look credible, not overwhelmed.

The Skills Gap in Cyber Security Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

Cyber security has become one of the most critical disciplines in the modern economy. From protecting financial systems and healthcare data to securing national infrastructure, cloud platforms and supply chains, cyber security professionals now sit at the frontline of digital trust. Demand for cyber security talent in the UK has surged. Job vacancies remain high, salaries continue to rise, and organisations across every sector report difficulty hiring skilled professionals. Yet despite this demand, many graduates struggle to break into cyber security roles and employers consistently report that candidates are not job-ready. The problem is not intelligence, ambition or academic effort. It is a persistent and widening skills gap between university education and real-world cyber security work. This article explores that gap in depth: what universities teach well, what they routinely miss, why the gap exists, what employers actually want, and how jobseekers can bridge the divide to build sustainable careers in cyber security.
