Second line in a 24/7 SOC covering regulated clients, with a genuine route into threat hunting.

A managed security provider is growing its Bristol SOC and needs analysts at second line, handling the escalations that first line cannot close.

The client base is regulated, which means the alerts matter and the reports get read. There is a defined progression into threat hunting and detection engineering for people who want it, and the team is deliberately kept small enough that you are not just a queue.

What we are looking for

  • SOC experience at first or second line, with real triage rather than alert forwarding
  • Confident in a SIEM, ideally Sentinel or Splunk
  • Able to write an incident report a client will act on
  • Eligible for SC clearance. The client sponsors it, so holding it already is a bonus rather than a requirement

Shift pattern with hybrid working between shifts.
