Job Description

SOC Analyst – Step into Shift Leadership 
 Leeds | £38,500 + 20% Shift Allowance (£46,200) | 4 on / 4 off, 
 
 Are you an experienced SOC Analyst looking for that next step, but not quite ready for a full Team Lead role?
 
 I'm looking for a SOC Analyst with commercial experience who is ready to take on more responsibility within an established SOC. The role sits between L1 and L2 (think of it as an L1.5 role ) and a genuine stepping stone into leadership.

 You’ll still be predominantly hands-on, triaging and investigating security incidents, but you’ll also take responsibility for a small shift of around three SOC Analysts. You’ll act as their escalation point, monitor SLAs, QA tickets, lead shift handovers and help coach and mentor the team.
 
 What we're looking for

Hands-on SOC experience in an commecial SOC
Strong incident triage, investigation and escalation skills
Experience with Microsoft Sentinel and Defender XDR
SentinelOne experience would be a real advantage
Understanding of MITRE ATT&CK and common security frameworks
Experience with ITSM/ticketing platforms such as ServiceNow
Some previous mentoring, coaching or supporting junior analysts
Good customer communication skills
Someone ready to take their first real step into SOC leadership
 Shift pattern is 4 on / 4 off – 7am to 7pm,  with office attendance required in Leeds when your day shift falls on a Monday, Wednesday or Friday, the rest remote.
 
 There is a clear progression route through the SOC SOC Analyst → Shift Lead → L2/Senior SOC Analyst → Team Lead
 
 If you're already the person other analysts come to for help, mentoring newer team members or taking ownership when things get difficult, this could be a great opportunity to formalise that experience and take the next step in your career
