Summary

Perfect role for a junior/mid professional looking to grow their Cybersecurity career in Leeds.

Regulators are tightening the screws on how businesses handle data, and the gap between compliance requirements and the people who actually understand them keeps widening. This growing SME, based in Leeds, sits right in that gap. The team helps organisations prove they're managing cybersecurity risk properly, not just claiming to, and they need a Cybersecurity Compliance Analyst who can turn frameworks and audits into something a business can actually act on.

Here's what you'll be doing:

Running compliance assessments against frameworks like ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials and NIST, and translating the results into plain-language action plans

Supporting internal and external audits, gathering evidence and closing out findings before they become problems

Monitoring policies and controls to make sure they still match how the business actually operates day to day

Tracking risk registers and chasing up remediation work with the relevant teams

Drafting and updating compliance documentation, from security policies to client-facing assurance reports

Keeping an eye on regulatory changes and flagging what they mean for the business before they become urgent

Here are the skills you'll need:

A year or two working in cybersecurity, information security, IT audit or a related compliance role

Working knowledge of at least one major framework (ISO 27001, NIST, SOC 2 or Cyber Essentials)

Comfortable writing clearly. A lot of this job is explaining technical risk to people who aren't technical

Organised enough to manage multiple audits and deadlines without things slipping

Some understanding of risk assessment methodology and control frameworks

A relevant certification (CompTIA Security+, ISO 27001 Lead Implementer, or similar) is a bonus, not a requirement

Key perks and benefits:

£34,000 to £43,000, plus a bonus scheme

Hybrid working, based out of Leeds with flexibility built in

Private medical insurance and pension contribution

Structured annual leave with genuine flexible working, not just the phrase on a job ad

Clear progression path within an established, growing company that actually invests in training

Why pursue a career in Cybersecurity?

Compliance requirements aren't going away. If anything, they're multiplying, and businesses that get caught out are paying real money for it. Leeds has become a genuine hub for cybersecurity and financial services work outside London, so the demand here is steady and the salaries reflect it. Get good at this and you'll rarely be short of options, because every business with data now needs someone who can prove they're protecting it properly.
