About the role
Envision Employment Solutionsis currently looking for aSOC Managerfor one of our partners, a leading Digital Bank!
THE ROLE
You lead the defense the digital bank will be a target from the day it opens, and the Security Operations Centre you run is what detects an attack, contains it and brings the digital bank back to safety. When a major incident occurs, you and the team will lead the response, coordinate decisions and ensure customers and the bank are protected.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
•
Lead the cybersecurity incident response lifecycle end to end, from identification and containment through eradication, recovery, post incident review & feeding lessons back into the organisation
•
Oversee 24x7 security monitoring and incident handling against defined procedures, escalation paths and service levels
•
Build and continuously improve the incident response frameworks, playbooks and readiness exercises, including tabletop simulations
•
Drive threat intelligence, threat hunting and security investigations to identify emerging risks before they become incidents.
•
Act as the primary escalation point during major cyber incidents, coordinating technical teams, senior management, communications and regulators.
•
Improve detection quality by reducing false positives, closing visibility gaps and measuring control effectiveness.
•
Ensure SIEM, SOAR, EDR and threat intelligence platforms are integrated, automated and tuned to support effective response.
•
Work with Security Engineering, infrastructure and application teams to embed detection and response requirements into new systems.
•
Develop the SOC team through coaching, practical exercises and clear analyst progression.
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
•
7 to 10 years in cybersecurity, with 4 to 5 years clearly running a Security Operations Center (SOC)
•
Command of the full incident response lifecycle, grounded in a recognised framework such as NIST or SANS
•
Hands on depth with SIEM, SOAR, EDR and threat intelligence platforms
•
A record of building detection capability, playbooks and operating procedures, and readiness exercises
•
Strong judgement under pressure and the ability to communicate clearly during major incidents. Certifications such as CISSP, CISM, GCIH or GCFA, and financial services cybersecurity experience, are valuable not essential
•
Familiarity and experience with the Egyptian Cybersecurity framework is valuable not essential
YOU’LL THRIVE HERE IF YOU
•
You stay clear headed in the middle of an incident
•
You challenge weak detections
•
You’d rather hunt the threat than wait for the alert
•
You treat every incident as an opportunity to strengthen the digital bank’s defences further
•
You know the difference between a SOC that looks ready and one that is
