Empowering Cyber Businesses & Professionals through Quality Recruitment Services
LYNK has partnered with a cybersecurity services provider to recruit multiple SOC Analysts as part of a growing detection and response function.
*This is advertised as remote due to the day to day responsibilities, however there is a 2-3 day onboarding requirement as well as 2 meetups per year.
The company supports a diverse client base across critical sectors and operates a 24/7 SOC model with a strong emphasis on quality triage, incident response, threat hunting, and internal cyber development — not just alert monitoring.
You’ll be part of a well-supported, technically capable team with a strong track record in crisis response and hands-on security operations. Whether you're looking to deepen your detection skills, expand into advisory work, or strengthen your incident response profile — this is a role where you can genuinely grow.
What’s in it for you?
- Additional training budget + vendor certifications
- 23 days holiday + bank holidays + 3 extra days over Christmas
- All onboarding travel is expensed
- 32 - 40 hours per week
- Structured progression and internal knowledge-sharing culture
Key Responsibilities
- Triage and investigate alerts from a range of SIEM and EDR platforms - MS Sentinel, Defender, Sentinel One, Vectra, Devo, QRadar
- Perform initial escalation, incident classification, and severity assessment
- Conduct threat hunting and intel correlation using raw log sources
- Produce clear incident documentation and response reports
- Participate in internal security operations (log management, monitoring, etc.)
- Engage in client-focused services such as dark web monitoring, supply chain risk, and CIS-based gap analysis
- Contribute to the design and improvement of playbooks, procedures, and crisis simulations
- Occasionally support advisory work around common threats like ransomware, insider threat, and lateral movement
About You
- 1.5+ years in a SOC or CSIRT role
- Experience working with raw data and security log analysis
- Comfortable with threat intel, IOC correlation, and incident documentation
- Knowledge of security methodologies, intrusion techniques, and detection frameworks
- A strong communicator — able to explain security issues clearly to both technical and non-technical teams
- Preferably experienced in one or more core tech areas (cloud, endpoint, networks, etc.)
- You must have the unrestricted right to work in the UK — this role is not eligible for visa sponsorship.
Please note: This is a 24/7 SOC, with 8-hour rotational shift patterns. A rota is available upon request.
