Security Engineer (Detection) London / WFH
to £100k
Are you a technologist Security Engineer with a strong understanding of detection engineering?
You could be progressing your career in a senior, hands-on role at a tech driven, global Asset Manager with multiple billions of dollars under management.
As a Security Engineer you'll investigate and triage security alerts, including those generated through AI driven security tooling, while bringing the L3 level experience needed to handle complex incidents and identify opportunities to improve detection and response.
A major focus will be building and maturing the organisation's detection engineering capability, developing effective detection approaches and aligning them with appropriate security frameworks. Over time, you'll also contribute to initiatives including additional log sources, Microsoft 365 DLP policies, Network Access Control and wider Information Security projects aligned to frameworks such as NIST.
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.
