  • Security operations, cyber defence or technical information security.
  • Investigating and responding to security incidents.
  • Vulnerability management and penetration-testing processes.
  • Security tools such as Tenable, endpoint security platforms, vulnerability scanners or network monitoring systems.
  • Experience working in London insurance is essential.

You’ll need to investigate technical issues properly, explain risk in plain language and work well with engineers, control owners, risk teams and senior stakeholders.
