About the role
Farnborough | Fully On-Site
24/7 Shift Pattern | Salary + Shift Allowance
DV Clearance Eligible
I’m currently recruiting for multiple Senior SOC Analysts to join a growing Security Operations Centre in Farnborough, supporting some of the UK’s most critical defence and national security environments.
These are hands-on SOC positions for experienced analysts who enjoy getting into the detail – investigating genuine security incidents, analysing suspicious activity and responding to sophisticated cyber threats.
The Role
Working as part of an established SOC team, you’ll be:
- Investigating and triaging complex security alerts and incidents
- Working across SIEM, EDR, network traffic and security logs
- Supporting live incident response, containment and escalation
- Threat hunting and identifying suspicious or malicious activity
- Improving detection rules, use cases and playbooks
- Working with MITRE ATT&CK and attacker TTPs
- Producing clear incident reports and communicating findings
- Contributing to the continued improvement of SOC capability
What I’m Looking For
You’ll ideally have:
- Strong commercial experience within a SOC or Security Operations environment
- Hands-on SIEM experience – Sentinel, Splunk, Elastic or similar
- Good incident investigation and response experience
- Understanding of MITRE ATT&CK
- Experience analysing endpoint, network and log data
- Good networking knowledge including TCP/IP, DNS and HTTP
- Exposure to EDR, firewalls, IDS/IPS and wider security tooling
- The ability to work confidently in a highly secure environment
Due to the nature of the work, you must be eligible to obtain DV Clearance, including being a British citizen with the required UK residency history.
This is a great opportunity for experienced SOC professionals who want to work on complex, meaningful cyber security programmes where the threats are real and the work genuinely matters.
I’m recruiting for multiple positions, so if you’re a SOC Analyst looking for your next move in the Farnborough area, please apply or get in touch for a confidential conversation.
