Cybercrime Analyst

About Netcraft

Netcraft is the global leader in cybercrime detection and disruption. We’re a trusted partner for three of the four largest companies in the world and many large governments. We've blocked over 225 million cyber-attacks to date, and we take down around 33% of the world's phishing attacks. Our purpose and passion are focused on just one thing: protecting the world from cybercrime. That passion shapes how we work, too. We’re proud of our talented team and the value each person brings, and we’ve built a workplace where people feel supported and inspired.

The Role

We're seeking a Cybercrime Analyst to join our amazing Technical Operations team. Cybercrime Analysts have an opportunity to make a real difference in the world by identifying threats and acting to protect governments, banks, and consumers from online attacks. You'll be a key part of the incident response team, finding innovative ways to rapidly disrupt cyber-attacks against our clients. And don't worry if you have limited experience in this area: we can train you.

Day to day, your responsibilities will include:

• Cybercrime incident response – communicating analysis of cyber threats to relevant parties to mitigate attacks;
• Classification of malicious websites, social media profiles, apps, emails, and phone numbers;
• Providing clear and professional feedback to customers on incidents and classifications;
• Sharing your ideas on how to improve processes and workflows.

Based at our Bath office, but with hybrid flexibility, you’ll report directly to a more senior member of the Technical Operations function and will work closely with colleagues across different teams.

To be successful, you’ll need:

• Attention to detail, adaptability, and strong intellectual and commercial curiosity;
• A positive and solution-focused approach;
• Interest in the internet and cybercrime prevention;
• Excellent communication skills with a high standard of written English;
• Ability to engage with people in a friendly, helpful, and professional way;
• Self-motivation, ability to take initiative, and work as part of a team;
• Aptitude for analysing and using technical information;
• Competence in handling incoming phone calls;
• Some experience in cybersecurity is useful but not essential as full training will be provided;
• A degree in Cyber Security, Computer Science, IT, or any field that promotes analytical thinking may be beneficial but is not essential.

Prior experience or knowledge in cybersecurity is not required; we’re more interested in your passion and willingness to grow in this field.
