A world-renowned arts and cultural institution is looking to hire a Cyber Risk Analyst to strengthen its information security capability during a period of ongoing technology and security maturity.

You’ll be joining a sizeable technology function operating at real scale, supporting thousands of devices, over a thousand end users, and systems critical to an organisation welcoming millions of visitors each year. This role is focused on real-world cyber risk, not box-ticking, working closely with senior security leadership to assess infrastructure, networks, systems, and third parties as they actually operate.

It’s a newly shaped role with genuine scope to influence how cyber risk is understood, assessed, and improved across the organisation.

Non-Negotiables

• Security qualifixation such as CompTIA Security+, CISSP, CISM, CEH, or equivalent,
• 3-4 years’ practical experience in cyber security risk, technical assurance, or IT audit roles

• Network architecture, firewall rules, segmentation, and access controls

• Risk registers, remediation tracking, and maturity assessments
• Collaboration with infrastructure, support, compliance, and security teams

• Exposure to penetration testing concepts (understanding how testing works, not hands-on delivery)
• Experience improving immature or overly compliance-led risk processes
• Familiarity with public sector or highly regulated environments
• Security certifications (or working towards one)

Why Join / Projects

• Move cyber risk away from “tick-box” audits into meaningful technical assurance
• Play a key role in improving how risk assessments are performed across the organisation
• Influence security maturity during an ongoing cyber capability review
• Work directly with senior security leadership and have genuine input into decisions
• Join a team that values critical thinking, curiosity, and asking better questions

Employee Benefits
