SOC Operator

Location: Stoke on Trent, Staffordshire
Hours of work: 44 Hours per week
Shifts: 4 days, 4 days off, 4 nights (& then repeat)
Contract Type: Permanent

Be the first line of defence. Keep operations moving. Protect what matters.

Step into the heart of our Security Operations Centre (SOC) and take on a role where every shift counts. As a SOC Operator, you’ll be the eyes and ears of our security network — responding to incidents, keeping systems running smoothly, and ensuring our clients, teams, and facilities remain safe and compliant.

This isn’t just monitoring screens — it’s real-time problem solving, decision-making under pressure, and leading by example in service delivery and operational excellence.

What You’ll Do

  • Be a core member of the duty team, delivering operational needs safely and in line with legislation
  • Use cutting-edge IT, analytics, sustainability, safety, and customer experience tools
  • Support frontline teams, sector leads, and key accounts daily
  • Act as the first responder for all out-of-hours incidents and operational planning
  • Ensure deployed assets remain safe and secure — escalate incidents when needed
  • Deliver daily reporting on productivity and performance

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.
