Security Engineer

This is a Senior Security Engineer role covering both cloud and on-premises environments, with genuine architectural influence rather than pure operational execution. The successful candidate will own security controls across identity, cloud, endpoint, and infrastructure — defining standards, hardening platforms, and leading detection and incident response using tools like Microsoft Sentinel and Defender XDR. It's a role that bridges strategy and hands-on technical delivery, working closely with Infrastructure, Network, and Application teams to ensure secure-by-design outcomes across the business, with a strong compliance dimension spanning PCI DSS, ISO 27001, and Cyber Essentials Plus.On the brand: This opportunity sits with one of the UK's most recognisable retail names — a business with a large-scale hybrid environment spanning cloud infrastructure, corporate offices, datacentres, and a significant UK retail footprint.

The organisation is investing heavily in strengthening its security posture as part of a broader technology transformation, with a strong emphasis on Zero Trust principles, identity security, and modern cloud-native protection across its Microsoft estate.#J-18808-Ljbffr
