You're a proactive and detail-driven cyber security professional who thrives on staying ahead of threats and building resilient systems.

You're ready to drive impactful security initiatives and support teams across the business to stay secure, informed, and compliant.

What you'll be doing (in a nutshell):

As our Senior Cyber Security Analyst, you'll play a critical role in protecting Perkbox's digital estate. You'll lead investigations, manage our security tooling, and work cross-functionally to ensure our infrastructure remains secure, compliant, and future-ready. Alongside hands-on analysis, you'll provide strategic insight and act as a mentor for junior team members, helping shape a forward-thinking security culture across the business.

Day-to-day you can expect to:

• Lead incident response for breaches, malware attacks, root cause analysis, and recovery

• Contribute to the ongoing development of our cybersecurity strategy
• Promote best practices and awareness across the wider organisation
• Stay ahead of cyber threats, ensuring zero-day vulnerabilities are discovered and actioned quickly
• Own the planning and execution of our annual penetration testing activity

To be successful, you'll have:

• Experience using vulnerability scanning tools and remediating software/hardware issues
• A solid understanding of both automated and manual penetration testing
• Hands-on experience identifying, testing, and mitigating system vulnerabilities
• A strong grasp of threat intelligence and incident response processes
• A collaborative mindset, with the ability to explain technical risks to non-technical audiences
• Logical and lateral problem-solving skills
• Calmness under pressure and the ability to multitask effectively across projects

Bonus points if you bring:
