Junior Security Analyst

About the Company

At Avaron, you get the security of permanent employment combined with the variety of working at different customers. We place specialists across everything from tech, IT and industry to project management and business support – and whatever the assignment, you have a consultant manager who is there for you and your development.

About the Role

You will be the first point of contact for security alerts, incidents, and insider risk cases in an environment where both security and compliance are central. Rather than owning deep technical investigations, you will make sure incoming events are captured, reviewed at a high level, enriched with the right context, and routed to the right team.

You will work across ServiceNow, Microsoft Defender, and Microsoft Purview, helping create structure and momentum in daily security operations. The role gives you close exposure to how security, IT, and business teams work together around incident intake, escalation, and follow-up.

This is a strong opportunity if you want to build practical experience in security operations, incident handling, and data protection while working with modern Microsoft security tools.

• You will handle incoming events from Microsoft Purview, including DLP, Insider Risk Management, and compliance alerts.
• You will make sure alerts and cases are documented clearly and enriched with relevant context.
• You will track incident progress and keep ticketing systems updated.
• You will support coordination between security, IT, and business stakeholders.
• You will follow established processes, SLAs, and escalation paths, and help identify recurring issues that can improve intake and triage.
