Working with our Global IT function, our experienced Cyber Security Team provides cyber services and solutions to our businesses to protect our critical infrastructure. With our businesses facing a constantly evolving and increasing level of cyber threat activity, we play a pivotal role by monitoring our systems and ensuring we have the right technologies to protect our assets and ultimately make sure we keep the power flowing. We’re looking for graduates with an aptitude for Cyber Security to keep our walls up against these continuous threats.

Our programme will give you insights into the different cyber security tools and services required to support an organisation that has to protect critical national infrastructure. You can select placements across different cyber security areas, depending on your area of interest, including security incident response, threat intelligence processing, security tool management, vulnerability scanning, penetration testing, security consultancy, security programme delivery and security strategy definition.
