Across government, cyber security is fundamental to protecting critical services, safeguarding sensitive data and maintaining public trust. As cyber threats continue to evolve in scale and sophistication, organisations must strengthen their ability to detect, analyse and respond to potential incidents in real time. Ofgem plays a vital role in the UKs energy system, protecting consumers and enabling a more secure, fair and sustainable energy future, and effective cyber security operations are essential to ensuring resilience and continuity of services.
Ofgem is on a significant transformation journey. Within the Digital, Data and Security Services (DDSS) directorate, we are strengthening our cyber security capability to support a modern, digitally enabled organisation. This includes enhancing monitoring, threat intelligence and incident response processes to ensure that risks are identified early and managed effectively.
As a Lead Cyber Security Analyst, you will play a critical role in protecting Ofgems systems and services. You will lead the monitoring and analysis of security events, drive improvements to detection capabilities and support the effective investigation and response to incidents. You will work across security operations, threat intelligence and vulnerability management, ensuring that the organisation remains resilient against a dynamic threat landscape.
This is a technically demanding and high-impact role, requiring strong analytical capability, experience in security operations and the ability to lead activity across complex environments. You will act as both a subject matter expert and a leader, supporting the development of capability and driving continuous improvement across cyber security operations.
