Security Engineer
Birmingham (Hybrid) | Occasional Travel | £55,000
We're working with a growing cyber security consultancy looking to add a Security Engineer to its expanding team. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with experience in Security Operations, Security Engineering, or a SOC environment who wants to further develop their skills across the Microsoft security stack.
You'll be involved in deploying and optimising security solutions, developing detections, supporting incident investigations, enhancing monitoring capabilities, and contributing to security automation initiatives. The role offers exposure to technologies including Microsoft Defender XDR, Microsoft Sentinel, Azure Security, KQL, vulnerability management, and security automation.
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.
