About the Role

As our Senior Information Security Analyst, you'll play a key role in protecting Zuto's technology, data and customers while helping us continue to mature our overall security posture. This is a blended technical security and governance role. One day you could be investigating an alert within our SIEM or responding to a security incident; the next, you could be assessing a supplier, supporting an ISO 27001 audit or discussing a control decision with senior stakeholders. You'll act as a senior point of reference for colleagues across the business, combining strong technical knowledge with a practical, risk-based approach to security. We're looking for someone who can distinguish genuine risk from noise, make sound decisions and help us continuously improve rather than simply identify problems.

  • ● Managing day-to-day security alerts, requests and tickets through to resolution, ensuring SLAs are achieved.
  • ● Acting as a senior responder for security incidents, supporting investigation, containment and resolution.

  • ● Managing internal and external penetration testing and working with Engineering teams to resolve findings.
  • ● Assuring Identity and Access Management controls including MFA, privileged access, RBAC and joiner/mover/leaver processes.
  • ● Supporting periodic access reviews and recertification.
  • ● Providing security input into cloud architecture, network segmentation, logging and encryption.
  • ● Assessing the security implications of new and emerging technologies, including AI and machine-learning tools.
  • ● Helping ensure appropriate data-handling safeguards and human oversight are built into AI adoption.
  • ● Substantial experience working within an Information or Cyber Security role.
  • ● Strong hands-on technical capability across several areas such as:
  • ● SIEM & log analysis
  • ● Endpoint Detection & Response
  • ● Vulnerability management
  • ● AWS/cloud security
  • ● Identity & Access Management
  • ● Email & network security
  • ● Practical experience taking a senior role in security incident investigation and response.
  • ● Experience overseeing infrastructure and cloud vulnerability management programmes.
  • ● Working knowledge of ISO 27001 and experience demonstrating control effectiveness.
  • ● Experience within UK financial services, consumer credit, lending or another FCA-regulated environment.
  • ● Knowledge of security frameworks such as NIST CSF, CIS Controls or NCSC CAF.
  • ● Scripting or automation experience using tools such as PowerShell, Power Automate, JSON or query languages.

Requirements

  • ● A degree in a computer-related subject or equivalent professional experience within cyber security would be beneficial.
