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 on boarding requirement as well as 8-12 meetups per year. To make this easier we will prioritise candidates in the NW of England or as close to this as possible.
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?
* £45,000 – £55,000 salary (DOE)
* Additional training budget + vendor certifications
* 23 days holiday + bank holidays + 3 extra days over Christmas
* Private healthcare buyback scheme
* Remote-first working model
* Occasional trips to HQ (Gloucestershire) or serviced office (Manchester) — monthly or quarterly
* All onboarding travel is expensed
* 37.5 hour week with early finish one day a week
* Structured progression and internal knowledge-sharing culture
Key Responsibilities
* Triage and investigate alerts from a range of SIEM and EDR platforms
* 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.
