About this Senior SOC Analyst role at Beyond
Work where work matters.
We are a global technology group built for what's next, offering high calibre professionals the platform for high stakes work, the kind of work that defines an entire career. When you join us, you're not just taking on projects, you're solving problems that don't even have answers yet.
You will join an exclusive roster of talent that global leaders, including Google, Snap, Diageo, PayPal, and Jaguar Land Rover call when deadlines seem impossible, when others have already tried and failed, and when the solution absolutely has to work.
Forget routine consultancy. You will operate where technology, design, and human behaviour meet to deliver tangible outcomes, fast. This is work that leaves a mark, work you’ll be proud to tell your friends about.
We are looking for a Senior Security Analyst to detect, investigate, and respond to security events and incidents as part of our MSSP team. The main objective of this role is to support the team’s efforts and help our customers effectively manage and respond to security threats.
We look for people who embody:
Innovation to solve the hardest problems.
Accountability for every result.
Integrity always.
About The Role
- Use analytical skills and attention to detail to monitor and respond to security events and incidents.
- Contribute to the continuous improvement of team performance and operational efficiency.
- Show eagerness to learn and proactively enhance skills in the cybersecurity field.
- Monitor logs and security events across various security tools and act as the first responder to security incidents by performing triage, threat analysis, and containment.
- Document and report on security incidents with detailed analysis and remediation recommendations, maintaining accurate records to enhance future responses.
- Communicate incident response activities to stakeholders, including technical teams, senior management, and customers. Escalate complex issues to senior analysts as needed.

This role is designed for impact, and we believe our best work happens when we connect. While we operate a flexible model, we expect you to spend regular quality time on site (at our offices or a client location) for collaboration sessions, customer meetings, and internal workshops.
