Cyber Incident Response Manager in London

Our Incident and Threat Operations services are central to this role. We support PwC's clients in crisis across our global network to respond, remediate and recover from a wide variety of cyber attacks. We also support clients in developing detection engineering and threat hunting strategies for modern SecOps environments and engineer automation and orchestration playbooks to streamline detection and response activities. We design playbooks for investigation, response and recovery.

We are assured by the UK NCSC under its Enhanced Cyber Incident Response scheme to respond to sophisticated attacks on networks of national significance. Recent incidents we have responded to include human‐operated ransomware attacks on some of the world's largest corporations and APT intrusions at NGOs. Our investigation work spans cyber crime, corporate espionage and state‐affiliated threat actors. Our Incident and Threat Operations practice works closely alongside many other front‐line technical teams to deliver an end‐to‐end incident response capability to clients, including our global threat intelligence team, threat hunting team and ethical hacking practice. We also work with PwC's dedicated crisis coordination team to provide support to clients at all levels of their organisations.
