Vulnerability Management Analyst
Preston – hybrid working (2 days per week onsite)
Up to £47,000 + excellent corporate benefits package
Sole UK Nationals only/No Dual Nationals – Eligibility for SC clearance required
Finding a vulnerability is only the beginning. The real challenge is making sure somebody fixes it.
We’re looking for a Vulnerability Management Analyst to join a growing cyber security team supporting a major client programme. You’ll take identified vulnerabilities and help drive them through prioritisation, remediation, and closure—working with suppliers and technical teams to ensure nothing important is overlooked or left unresolved.
This isn’t a Penetration Tester role, and you won’t spend your days running vulnerability scans. It’s ideal for someone working as a Vulnerability Analyst, Vulnerability Remediation Analyst, Cyber Security Analyst, Security Governance Analyst, or Vulnerability Management Coordinator who is comfortable combining cyber knowledge with reporting, organisation, and plenty of stakeholder engagement.
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.
