The Opportunity

As a Cyber Operations Specialist, you'll support the Cyber Threat Intelligence and Training, Communications, and Awareness functions. While expertise in one area is expected, you'll provide support across both, contributing to the development of intelligence services and the delivery of training and awareness initiatives.

Alongside a competitive salary and a market-leading pension scheme, your package will include a range of benefits, from the big and formal to the small and personal.

We’re talking about everything from enhanced parental leave to electric vehicle leasing, health insurance to product discounts, critical illness insurance to technology vouchers, gym membership to season ticket loans.

At EDF UK, we embrace flexibility while recognising that everyone's working needs are different. Whether you're in our office spaces, on site, or working remotely, we promote an environment that supports collaboration, connection, and comfort. No matter where you are, our priority is to make sure you feel safe, valued, and celebrated.

Here, we do right by each other and everyone’s welcome. We’re on an action-oriented journey, championing equity, diversity, and inclusion. We’d like our future workforce to have an equal gender balance, represent a broad mix of people from minority ethnic backgrounds, LGBTQ+, those with a disability and supporting social mobility.  

We’re a disability confident employer and we’ll do all we can to help with your application. Please let us know if you need to request reasonable adjustments.

We take pride in fostering a dynamic and inclusive environment, where the diverse backgrounds and experiences of our employees drive fresh thinking and innovation. We understand that success means different things to different people. We believe there are multiple definitions of what it means to succeed. That’s why we support you to pursue a career that’s unique to you. Because success is personal.

What you’ll be doing

As a member of the Cyber Operations Team, you'll deliver Cyber Threat Intelligence Services to Nuclear Licensees, including identifying and analysing threats, providing intelligence reports, and offering recommendations to the business on appropriate actions. You'll produce strategic reports on threat actors and their methodologies to support improvement initiatives.  

Additionally, you'll help to identify, record, and develop a training program for CS&IA personnel, aligned with the CIISec Skills Framework, contributing to the creation of a SQEP (Suitably Qualified and Experienced Person) Register. You’ll also help develop and deliver cyber security awareness campaigns, with regular communications on both strategic and targeted topics. 

Who you are

You will have strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to work both independently and as part of a team. Experience in delivering Cyber Threat Intelligence, including the use of relevant tools and methodologies, is key, as is suitable industry-recognised training or certification. 

You’ll have a proven track record in developing training programs linked to a set of common competencies and skills (preferably the CIISec Skills Framework), and experience in running cyber awareness programs, including regular communications and messaging. A solid understanding of national and international frameworks and standards (e.g., NIST, ISO27000) will be important for success in this role. 

If this sounds like you then we’d love to hear from you!

Closing date for applications: 7th May 2025.
