Junior Security & IT Engineer

About the Role

We’re looking for someone early in their career who combines technical curiosity with a practical approach to solving problems. This role brings together IT support and security operations, giving you experience across the devices, systems and access our colleagues rely on every day.

You’ll join the Security team, reporting to the Head of Cybersecurity and working closely with our Senior Security Engineer and Global CISO. You’ll receive guidance, contribute to security projects and take on greater responsibility as you develop, with opportunities to grow into security engineering.

What You’ll Do

• Be a trusted point of contact for colleagues who need help with devices, accounts and access.
• Manage onboarding, role changes and offboarding, making sure access is appropriate and kept up to date.
• Keep endpoints secure through device enrolment, configuration, patching and encryption.
• Triage security alerts and phishing reports, document your findings and escalate when needed.
• Support access reviews and help prepare evidence for audits and regulatory requests.
• Maintain useful documentation, asset inventories and guides that make everyday tasks easier.
• Contribute to security projects and automation as your skills grow.

What We’re Looking For

• Ideally 1 to 3 years of experience in IT support, systems administration, security operations or a related technical role. Graduates and career changers with strong practical experience are welcome.
• Familiarity with identity and workplace platforms such as Okta, Google Workspace or Microsoft 365.
• Experience supporting macOS or Windows devices, with exposure to management tools such as Jamf, Intune or Kandji.
• An understanding of security fundamentals and an interest in developing your skills through work, study, labs or personal projects.
• Clear written and spoken English, sound judgment and a thoughtful approach to helping colleagues.
• The ability to work through unfamiliar problems, explain what you’ve found and recognise when to ask for support.

Nice to Have

• A certification such as CompTIA Security+, Network+ or a relevant vendor administration qualification.
• Basic scripting in Python, PowerShell or Bash.
• Experience in financial services or another regulated environment.
• Spanish language skills.
