Threat Hunting Specialist

Location: Remote-first (travel to Cheltenham a couple of times per month)

Salary: Up to £60,000 + package

This is an opportunity to play a key role in developing detection capabilities, proactively identifying threats, and enhancing security monitoring across complex enterprise environments.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Develop, implement and maintain security detection use cases across SIEM platforms
  • Create and optimise correlation rules, alerts and threat detection content
  • Conduct proactive threat hunting activities to identify emerging threats and adversary behaviours
  • Map detections and hunting activities to the MITRE ATT&CK framework
  • Analyse threat intelligence and convert findings into actionable detections
  • Continuously tune and improve detections to reduce false positives and improve coverage
  • Investigate suspicious activity and support incident response where required
  • Collaborate with security engineers, SOC analysts and stakeholders to mature detection capabilities
  • Validate detections through attack simulation and adversary emulation techniques

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.
