Make the Connection. At Vix Technology, we're helping millions of people move through cities every day. Globally, our technology powers public transport networks in more than 200 cities worldwide. For over 35 years we've been delivering smarter fare collection, passenger information and transit solutions that make travelling easier. Now we're looking for a Cyber Security Analyst to join our growing global security team. If you've already gained a year or two of experience in cyber security-or recently completed a degree or apprenticeship with some hands on industry exposure-and you're looking for a role where you can learn fast, take ownership and work alongside experienced security professionals, we'd love to hear from you. This isn't a role where you'll be pigeonholed into one area of cyber security. You'll get exposure to vulnerability management, customer security reporting, governance, compliance, incident response, bid support and security operations, giving you a broad foundation to build an exciting career. Working from our Manchester office (three days a week), you'll collaborate with colleagues across the UK, France and the USA, helping to protect systems that support public transport networks across the globe. What you'll be doing You'll become a key member of our Security-as-a-Service team, helping customers understand and improve their security posture while supporting our internal teams to deliver secure, resilient solutions. One day you might be analysing vulnerabilities and helping engineering teams prioritise remediation. The next, you'll be producing customer-facing security reports, supporting an audit, contributing to a security bid or working with colleagues across engineering, cloud and IT to embed security best practice. You'll translate technical information into practical advice, help improve the way we manage security across the business and play an important role in building a positive security culture at Vix. No two days are quite the same-which makes this an ideal opportunity for someone who enjoys variety, solving problems and continually learning. About you You're naturally curious and enjoy understanding how things work. You ask good questions, communicate confidently with different people and like solving problems rather than simply identifying them. You've already developed a solid understanding of cyber security fundamentals through your degree, apprenticeship or your first role, and you're now looking for an environment where you can broaden your experience across multiple areas of security. You'll probably have around 1-2 years' experience in cyber security or IT, along with a good understanding of topics such as vulnerability management, security risk, secure configuration and incident response. Just as importantly, you'll be organised, collaborative and comfortable explaining technical concepts in a way that makes sense to different audiences. We'd especially like to hear from you if you have experience or exposure to: Cyber Security, Computer Science or IT through a degree, apprenticeship or commercial role Security reporting, vulnerability management or governance AWS or cloud security fundamentals Security frameworks such as ISO 27001, NIST or CIS Customer facing communication or stakeholder engagement Security certifications such as Security+, CySA+ or similar (or you're working towards one) Don't worry if you don't tick every box-we're much more interested in your potential, curiosity and willingness to learn. Why Vix? Joining Vix means becoming part of a global technology company where your work has real world impact. You'll work with experienced security professionals across three continents, gain exposure to a broad range of technologies and security disciplines, and have genuine opportunities to develop your career. If you're looking for your next step in cyber security-and a role that will help you build the skills and experience to become a well rounded security professional,we'd love to hear from you. What's in it for you? Besides the opportunity to work for a global company that is customer and people focused, we offer: A great team of like minded professionals Private Healthcare Income Protection Scheme Pension Group Life Assurance Cycle to Work Scheme Electric Car Benefit Scheme Employee Assistance Programme Eyecare and Spectacle Vouchers Add your resume and anything else to showcase why you would be a great addition to our team. We regret that this position is only available for UK&I citizens/Residents with indefinite leave to remain in the UK&I, with current full time work rights for the United Kingdom, currently residing in the UK. No recruitment agencies, please! We won't accept any introductions. Vix Technology is an Equal Opportunity Employer and prohibits discrimination and harassment of any kind.
