Security and Operations Manager (Permanent) in London

Company DescriptionWe’re the world’s leading sports technology company, at the intersection between sports, media, and betting. More than 1,700 sports federations, media outlets, betting operators, and consumer platforms across 120 countries rely on our know-how and technology to boost their business.You will run a global function and own Security Operations end to end: the SOC, incident response, detection engineering and threat intelligence, along with the people and platforms behind them. Evolve the operating model, the on-call structure, the tooling and the automation. Treat detection engineering as an engineering discipline. You will drive the coverage roadmap across our cloud estate and applications, and you know the difference between a thousand alerts and one good one. Make threat intelligence earn its keep. You will work closely with engineering, product security and the wider InfoSec leadership so that what we build is defensible and what we defend is understood. Define and improve measures that matter: detection coverage, investigation quality, time to detect and contain, escalation effectiveness, and whether lessons from incidents get implemented. You have personally led the response to serious incidents rather than observing them from a governance layer. You understand how modern cloud environments (AWS, GCP, Azure) are attacked and defended, including identity, logging, lateral movement and containment, and how incident response works within them. Threat intelligence experience. Hands-on experience with SIEM/Data Lakes, implementing and supporting. Ability to shape your own workday and career via a clearly defined professional and personal development plan. Opportunity to work with senior leadership, develop yourself and build your career within an inspiring and fast-growing company and digital sports environment. Flexible working model. While we appreciate the flexibility and benefits of working from home, we strongly believe that coming together in person fosters stronger connections, encourages collaboration, and drives innovation—both as individuals and as a company. The energy, shared ideas, and team support we experience in the office strengthen the foundation of our success and culture. For this reason, we are generally an office-first business operating on a hybrid model, with team members working in the office four days a week to build relationships, exchange ideas, and grow together.
