Senior Security Analyst

Made Tech helps UK public sector organisations build and run secure, user-centred digital services. Our Cyber practice works directly with government departments, agencies, and other public bodies — embedding alongside client teams to raise their security capability, not just deliver a report and leave. As a Senior Security Analyst, you'll be a core part of that practice, operating in a security operations context where the stakes are real: the systems we protect carry sensitive public data and underpin services that people depend on. This is a hands-on technical role with genuine scope and influence. You'll lead threat hunts and intrusion investigations, author and tune detection content, and help your team respond to incidents in a way that leaves things better than you found them. You'll translate threat intelligence into actionable detections, align your work to frameworks like the NCSC Cyber Assessment Framework and GovAssure, and communicate clearly with client security stakeholders who need to understand what's happening and why it matters. You'll own significant pieces of the SOC's work end-to-end - not just executing tasks, but making considered decisions and being clear about the trade-offs. At Senior level, though, the role is about more than your own output. You'll help junior analysts develop their triage tradecraft, normalise pairing on incident response, contribute to shared detection standards across the practice, and model the kind of blameless, collaborative culture that makes a security team genuinely effective.
