  • You can communicate clearly to different audiences, both verbally and written.
  • You can work calmly and effectively under pressure and have a can-do attitude.

While there is strong emphasis on security infrastructure and platforms, we welcome candidates with a range of security experience and interests to complement the existing team.

This is a hybrid-working role with offices at the University Information Services' building on the West Cambridge Site.
