They've been processing secure and reliable digital transactions for over 25 years throughout the country on our market leading network. Our solutions are PCI compliant, which enables sensitive cardholder data to be protected using the most appropriate security controls.

- Reviewing and contributing to developer work to ensure outcomes are secure and compliant.
- Implementing appropriate IT Security controls.
- Supporting the agile delivery of secure products through local and cloud-based infrastructure.
- Designing and executing regular assurance tasks to monitor effectiveness and efficiency of current security controls.
- Providing security analysis to support architects and developers.
- Completing operational security tasks to ensure ongoing security and compliance.
- Contributing to ongoing security awareness across the organisation.

**The team**
The team at is made up of architects, analysts, and consultants. We come from a unique blend of backgrounds but are all united by (coffee) being passionate about keeping our network safe and secure. This role will have widespread exposure across the business and you can expect to work with people from every business unit and of every level in the business internally. You will also work alongside a broad range of external parties including consultants, compliance partners and auditors, outsource partners, card schemes, banks, and third-party vendors.

**What we're looking for**
- 2+ years as Security Analyst working within an agile development environment OR sound experience as a QA/Dev in a previous agile environment.
- Ability to code, preferably in Python, Java and REST.
- Excellent communication skills at a technical & non-technical level.
- Experience with PCI DSS is preferable.
