IT Security Analyst

At DP World we currently have a fantastic opportunity for an IT Security Analyst to join CNS’s growing team. CNS is an IT services business processing customs clearance and other regulatory and commercial information for over 100 locations around the UK, including links to Customs for FedEx, UPS and TNT. CNS’s systems provide real time clearance of cargo without which it’s maritime and air customers’ freight cannot move. CNS customs links are a pre-requisite for the movement of cargo through DP World Southampton and TCS. CNS is part of DP World Southampton and as part of this team you will work on site.

The Information Security Analyst will be responsible for supporting the Information Security Officer in delivering the security programme. This will include the effective execution of business security objectives and the operation, management, and improvement of the Information Security Management System (ISMS).

Being part of a small team, there will be plenty of opportunity (and expectation) to get involved in all aspects of information security – and therefore, lots of opportunity to learn and develop too.  This is a fast-paced and exciting role, and the opportunity to help steer the ISMS direction, to oversee the implementation of new security toolsets, and to take ownership and responsibility for achieving key objectives provides a satisfying and rewarding opportunity for a keen and enthusiastic individual.

Hours: Monday – Friday 37.5 hours per week
