About this role

Perfect role for a junior/mid professional looking to grow their Cybersecurity career in London.

Cyber threats aren't slowing down, and neither is the regulation built to keep them in check. This established, growing SME in the Cybersecurity space needs a Risk & Compliance Analyst who can keep pace with both. You'd be joining a business of 51 to 250 people that's past the startup scramble but still small enough for your work to be visible and your judgement to matter.

Here's what you'll be doing

Assess and document security risks across client and internal systems, then track remediation through to close

Support audits against ISO 27001, SOC 2, Cyber Essentials and similar frameworks

Maintain the risk register and flag emerging threats before they become incidents

Write clear compliance reports for stakeholders who don't live and breathe security jargon

Liaise with technical teams to make sure controls are actually being followed, not just written down

Keep policies current as regulation and threat landscapes shift

Here are the skills you'll need

A year or two in risk, compliance, audit or a related security function

Working knowledge of ISO 27001, GDPR or NIST frameworks (formal certification a bonus, not a requirement)

Sharp written communication. You'll be translating technical risk into plain English regularly

Comfortable with spreadsheets, GRC tools, or a willingness to learn them fast

Genuine curiosity about how attacks happen and how policy stops them

Organised enough to manage several audits and deadlines at once without dropping the ball

Key perks and benefits

Salary of £36,000 to £54,500 depending on experience, plus bonus scheme

Private medical insurance

Pension contribution

Hybrid working from London, with generous annual leave and flexibility around how you structure your week

Defined progression path in a company that's still small enough to notice good work

Why pursue a career in Cybersecurity?

Every business now runs on data, and every regulator wants proof it's protected. That's not changing. London remains one of the best places in Europe to build a Cybersecurity career, with dense demand across finance, tech and professional services. Analysts who understand both the technical and the regulatory side rarely stay junior for long.
