Make your mark as a GRC Analyst in the Cybersecurity sector, based in Oxford.
Cyber threats don't wait for a tidy risk register, and regulators are watching more closely than they were even two years ago.
This business is an established leader in the cybersecurity space, running large-scale projects for clients who can't afford to get governance wrong.
They need a GRC Analyst who can keep pace with that pressure without losing the detail.
Here's what you'll be doing: Run risk assessments against frameworks like ISO 27001, NIST and SOC 2, and keep the risk register current Support internal and external audits, pulling together evidence and closing out findings Monitor control effectiveness across the business and flag gaps before they become problems Draft and maintain policies, procedures and compliance documentation that people can actually follow Work with IT and security teams to track remediation activity through to completion Prepare reporting for senior stakeholders on compliance posture and emerging risk Here are the skills you'll need: A year or two in a GRC, audit or compliance role, ideally within cybersecurity or a regulated industry Working knowledge of ISO 27001, NIST, GDPR or similar frameworks Comfortable writing clearly.
A GRC Analyst who can't explain a control in plain English isn't much use to anyone Methodical, organised, and genuinely interested in how risk and compliance fit together Confident talking to stakeholders at different levels, from engineers to directors A relevant certification (CompTIA Security+, ISO 27001 Lead Implementer, or similar) is useful but not essential Key perks and benefits: £36,000 to £46,000, depending on experience Hybrid working from the Oxford office, with genuine flexibility Private medical and dental insurance Enhanced pension scheme and performance-based bonuses Structured career development within an established industry leader Why pursue a career in Cybersecurity?
Demand for skilled GRC Analysts keeps climbing as compliance requirements multiply across every sector.
Oxford has quietly become a strong base for cybersecurity talent, with established employers and a steady pipeline of serious, well-resourced work.
Get good at this and you won't be short of options.
The field rewards people who care about getting the detail right.
