Job Description
The Chief Security Office (CSO) Intelligence Team identifies existing, emerging and future threats: against the Group’s customers, colleagues, assets, and data, coming from hostile governments, organised crime gangs, insiders and others.
As an Intelligence Analyst, your role will focus on working with Intelligence colleagues and SME teams to assemble, analyse and develop useful intelligence, to be provided to partners and colleagues at every level across the Group.

We’re looking for someone who is dedicated, able to work fast, creatively and determinedly, helping the Group and its customers stay safe from threats today – and tomorrow.
Key accountabilities are:
- Developing and delivering timely intelligence to help protect the bank.
- Innovating by looking at new sources of information to develop intelligence.

- Experience of working with varied data sources and data-bases to find, collate and share a wide array of information is also highly desirable.
- You'll demonstrate a good grasp of analytical approaches, as well as a good understanding of cyber threat intelligence.
Desirable Skills
- You'll be working in a highly-organised fashion: taking pride in an ability to deliver useful intelligence at pace and reacting flexibly to demands as they arise.
- You need to demonstrate think critical thinking skills to help you reason about sophisticated analysis.
- You'll become comfortable with following robust processes and have a talent for reactive responses and thinking well on your feet; suggesting improvements and putting them in place, seeking advice and authority as needed.
- Knowledge of software development and machine learning would be an advantage.
Personal Qualities
- You'll need to be highly adept at balancing multiple priorities, whilst exerting a clear and good sense of ownership on challenges where they arise.
