Overview
We are recruiting for a Duty Manager / SOC Analyst to operate within a live, high-pressure operational control environment.
This is a blended role combining operational leadership with technical awareness. The successful candidate will act as a central point of control, maintaining operational oversight across multiple domains while coordinating incident response and enabling effective decision-making.
In simple terms, this role suits someone who can act as an operational commander with enough technical awareness to ask the right questions and control the room.
Key Responsibilities
* Maintain a single operational picture across cyber, network, service, and physical domains
* Monitor live environments and assess alerts and incidents in real time
* Perform initial triage and validation of alerts to reduce noise and structure incidents
* Control escalation pathways and prioritisation of incidents
* Coordinate across SOC, NOC, infrastructure, and security teams
* Support or initiate major incident management activities
* Maintain logs, dashboards, and accurate operational records
* Deliver clear handovers and continuous situational awareness across shifts
Capability Profile
This role is intentionally balanced:
* 60% Operational Leadership / Coordination
* 40% Technical Awareness / Triage Capability
The focus is not on deep technical expertise, but on the ability to understand, assess, and direct activity effectively in a live environment. xsngvjr
