This role sits within a dedicated Cyber Security Incident Response Team, offering the opportunity to contribute to a mature security function at the forefront of protecting sensitive government systems and information.

* Perform technical analysis using Microsoft security tools and other provided technologies
* Drive incident communications, ensuring all stakeholders understand incidents and their responsibilities
* Develop and maintain incident records, documentation, reports and formal briefs
* Facilitate post-incident reviews and contribute to recovery and continuous improvement activities
* Mentor team members and identify opportunities for technical uplift including alert tuning
Key Experience and Skills:
* Minimum three years of hands-on technical experience in a cyber security incident responder role
* Strong technical expertise using Microsoft security tools in an incident response context
* Proven ability to communicate and document technical findings for both technical and non-technical stakeholders
* Experience developing, maintaining and testing incident management policies, plans and procedures
* Regulatory compliance requirements and cyber security best practice frameworks
How to Apply:
If you're ready to bring your cyber security expertise to a high-impact government environment, we'd love to hear from you. Apply by Friday, 29 May 2026. Applications received after the deadline may still be considered for future opportunities.
