Help Shape the Future of Renewable Energy Security
As Senior Security Engineer, you will play a key role in securing and modernising Operational Technology across a growing portfolio of renewable and flexible generation assets, including hydro, wind, solar, battery storage and gas generation.
With significant investment underway and increasing regulatory requirements, you will have the opportunity to influence security strategy, design future-state OT architectures, and help protect critical national infrastructure that keeps the UK's energy network running.
This is a highly visible role where you will work alongside engineering, OT and operational teams to deliver meaningful change, not simply maintain the status quo. The business is investing heavily in OT security, offering the chance to work with emerging technologies while helping shape how security is delivered across the estate.
