Location:Birmingham area (with travel across the UK and Europe)

Salary:£40,000 + benefits

Hybrid / On-site 3 days per week


TECHTRACE Partners are recruiting on behalf of a leading UK-based company with operations across Europe. This is a group-level security role, working as part of an established team, supporting multiple business units and contributing to a broader programme of cyber resilience.


You’ll be hands-on with tooling, controls, and incident response – while also helping shape how security is delivered across the group. It’s a business that takes security seriously and offers room to grow your career as the function evolves.


Key Responsibilities

  • Support and maintain group-wide security tooling — including Tenable, EDR, access controls, and SIEM
  • Assist in managing security incidents and work with stakeholders on resolution and reporting
  • Contribute to third-party security assessments and vendor risk reviews
  • Coordinate technical testing such as penetration tests and manage remediation activities
  • Carry out regular monitoring and checks to ensure security tooling is optimised
  • Provide advice and support to business units on security best practice and control implementation


What We’re Looking For

  • Hands-on experience with security tooling (EDR, vulnerability scanning, access control)
  • Familiarity with Security frameworks such as NIST, PCI-DSS, and GDPR
  • Experience working with Microsoft environments (O365, Azure)
  • Clear communicator, able to engage with both IT and non-technical teams
  • Full UK driving licence required due to site and travel requirements


This Isn’t an Entry-Level Role

You’ll need real-world experience in security operations or IT with a security focus - enough to manage tooling, contribute to incidents, and confidently communicate security across the business.


This role would suit someone who...

  • Has worked in a SOC or security analyst role, and wants to take on broader responsibilities
  • Has been the security point-person in an IT team, leading on patching or endpoint protection
  • Has hands-on experience with vulnerability management tools like Tenable, and is ready to play a bigger role in shaping how security tools are implemented and optimised across the business.


This is a chance to grow with a business that’s invested in security -and to be part of a team that’s actually doing the work properly. If that sounds like you, let’s talk.
