About the role

This role is pro-rated for 6 months (40k)

 

 The SOC Engineer role sits within the Information Security function and focuses on the ongoing development and maturity of the firm’s SIEM platform and wider security monitoring capability. The position involves onboarding and integrating new log sources, improving data pipelines, and developing detection use cases to enhance visibility of potential threats.

 The role works closely with the Information Security Operations Manager and the broader CISO team, as well as collaborating with other internal departments to support the implementation and maintenance of security controls. There is also involvement in service management processes such as incident, change, and problem management, alongside contributing to the design and review of controls that protect the firm’s IT environment.

 In addition to SIEM development, the position contributes to broader security tooling and strategic improvements within the security operations function. The aim is to improve overall detection and response capability in a structured and scalable way.

 Candidates with experience in regulated environments—such as legal or financial services organisations—are particularly relevant, as the role operates within a compliance-driven context.

 There is an expectation of occasional out-of-hours work for planned changes or maintenance, and potential involvement during security incidents where required.
