Maintain and evolve our Information Security Management System (ISMS)

Lead policy creation, updates, and compliance tracking

Drive continuous improvement of security practices and behaviours

Ensure compliance with ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials Plus, UK GDPR, and MOD CSM v3/v4

Plan, coordinate, and support internal/external audits and pen tests

Embed security into projects, cloud services, and software delivery

Deliver engaging security training and awareness sessions

Contribute to Business Continuity, Disaster Recovery, and internal audit

Act as TwinStream’s primary point of contact for all things InfoSec

What You’ll Bring

Proven experience as an Information Security Manager or similar

Strong experience in incident management, risk governance, and practical InfoSec delivery

Ability to embed security into modern software development and cloud environments

Strong knowledge of ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials Plus, and UK regulatory requirements

Excellent communication skills—confident translating security for all audiences

Comfortable working remotely in a flexible, fast-paced environment

Relevant certifications (e.g., CISSP, CISM, ISO 27001 Lead Implementer/Auditor)

Eligible for UK Security Clearance (minimum SC)

Why You’ll Love Working With Us

8% employer pension contribution

Private medical cover including dental & optical (for you and your family)

Learning & development autonomy — you drive your growth

Flexible remote working that actually supports your life

Electric vehicle salary sacrifice scheme

Cycle to Work + Life Assurance

28 days’ holiday + bank holidays

Quarterly meet-ups, summer party & Christmas celebrations

We’re building something special—and you’ll be at the heart of it.

Penetration Tester Jobs in the UK: What Employers Actually Want in 2026

The demand for skilled professionals in cyber security has never been higher, and penetration testers sit at the very heart of this rapidly evolving industry. As organisations across the UK continue to digitise their operations, protect sensitive data, and defend against increasingly sophisticated threats, the need for ethical hackers has grown dramatically. If you are considering a career in this field—or looking to advance within it—it is essential to understand what employers are really looking for in 2026. This guide breaks down the current expectations, required skills, certifications, and practical experience that can help you stand out in a competitive job market.

SOC Analyst Jobs UK 2026: Salaries, Skills & How to Get Hired

Cyber security is one of the UK's fastest-growing career paths — and SOC analyst is where most people begin. It's in high demand, genuinely accessible, and you don't need a degree or years of experience to get started. But knowing what UK employers actually want in 2026 — what they pay, which certs matter, and how to stand out — is a different matter. This guide covers all of it.

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.
