Do you have experience with implementing, maintaining, and auditing to the ISO 27001 security standard? Do you have demonstrable experience as an Information Security professional supporting change across an enterprise?
We are recruiting for an IT Information Security Analyst to join our team on a full-time, permanent basis.
Although our Head Office is in Swindon, we work in an agile way and you will have the flexibility to manage your time and location of work accordingly.

In this role you will:

  • Document and update local IT security policies, procedures and work instruction to comply with Group security standards.
  • Conduct regular scheduled audits against those policies.
  • Implement and test business continuity policies, plans, and procedures.
  • Collect and present management system reports showing levels of compliance.
  • Collaborate with IT team colleagues to support requirements definition, implementation, deployment and testing of technical controls and management tools.
  • Develop roadmap leading to ISO27001 Information Security compliance.
  • Advise on cyber security trends, legislation changes and new threats.
  • Implement schedule of monitoring based on Group standard and best practice.
  • Create and deliver regular cyber security awareness campaigns.
  • Conduct information security due diligence on suppliers and their systems.

In order to perform this role effectively, you will be analytically-minded, with the ability to work effectively under pressure and manage conflicting priorities. You will have an understanding of technical and organisational security vulnerabilities, threats, and risks, as well as experience in conducting organisational level security risk assessments.

Travel will form a part of this role and therefore the successful candidate will need to have a current, UK driving license and the flexibility to travel as and when required.

It is important to us to make sure we look after our employees and therefore we offer a competitive salary plus bonus scheme. You will have access to our extremely attractive benefits scheme that includes perks such as private health care, a healthy pension contribution, 25 days holiday (with the opportunity to buy more), and attractive employee car scheme to name a few.

Additional Benefits

  • Company Pension
  • Bonus Scheme

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.
