Job Role

We're hiring for a Cyber Security Engineer to join our IT Services team, based in Hockley, with hybrid or remote working considered. This is an exciting opportunity for a security professional to play a key role in protecting our organisation and customers from evolving cyber threats, whilst helping to shape and strengthen our security services.

In this hands-on role, you'll be responsible for operating, improving, and implementing security controls and services across internal and customer environments. You'll work across a broad range of security technologies including Microsoft Sentinel, the Microsoft Defender suite, Huntress, and Tenable, helping to detect, investigate, and respond to security threats whilst continually enhancing our security posture.

Working closely with the Head of Cyber Security and wider technical teams, you'll play a crucial role in security monitoring, incident response, vulnerability management, compliance activities, and the delivery of technical security projects. You'll help ensure our systems remain secure, resilient, and compliant, whilst supporting colleagues and customers with expert security guidance.

We're looking for someone with strong technical security knowledge, excellent analytical skills, and a proactive approach to problem-solving. You'll be comfortable investigating complex issues, implementing security controls, and communicating technical information clearly to a range of audiences.

Key Responsibilities

  • Monitor, manage, and investigate security alerts, incidents, and threats across internal and customer environments.
  • Administer and optimise security platforms including Microsoft Sentinel, Microsoft Defender, Huntress, and Tenable.
  • Conduct technical investigations into suspicious activity, security alerts, and potential breaches.
  • Support vulnerability management processes, remediation tracking, and security assurance activities.
  • Deliver technical security projects and implement new security controls, integrations, and monitoring capabilities.
  • Support Microsoft 365, Entra ID, Azure, identity, endpoint, and cloud security initiatives.
  • Contribute to incident response, root cause analysis, and continual security improvement activities.
  • Produce and maintain accurate documentation, investigation reports, runbooks, and technical guidance.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
