* Investigate suspicious behaviour and actively respond to security incidents
* Operate and support core security infrastructure across multiple platforms
* Provide hands-on IT support to internal users, including system setups and troubleshooting
* Lead on-site IT support and contribute to special projects as needed
What's in it for you:
* Competitive salary based on experience
* No overtime or weekend work required - excellent work-life balance in a SOC environment
* Hybrid or remote working available (must be based in the UK/Ireland)
* Join a company delivering meaningful change through technology and innovation
* Collaborative team culture with opportunities for professional development
* Be part of a tech team supporting real-world impact in healthcare and scientific research
What you need:
* Experience of IT/Security experience (or a related Bachelor's degree with hands-on exposure)
* Experience working in a Security Operations Centre or similar security environment
* Strong understanding of SIEM tools (e.g., LogRhythm, Splunk)
* Comfortable working across Windows, Mac, and Linux environments
* Familiarity with IAM practices
* Excellent communication and documentation skills
Desirable but not essential:
* CompTIA Security+ or similar certifications
* Experience leading escalated IT support issues
* Background in regulated or compliance-heavy industries
