????️ ♂️ SOC Manager – Incident Response & Threat Hunting | Fully Remote | Up to £90k + Package
This one’s for the player-coach types — hands-on SOC professionals who still love getting involved in the tech but want to step up and lead.
You’ll run a virtual SOC supporting critical UK operations, driving incident response, threat hunting, and detection engineering. It’s a hybrid of leadership and action — the kind of role where your technical instincts still matter as much as your management skills.
???? What makes it stand out:
Fully remote (UK-wide) – only quarterly trips to Warrington
Up to £90k + £6k car allowance + 10–15% bonus + full benefits
You can start without any clearance (SC sponsored)
Dual nationals welcome
On-call 1 week in 4
???? You’ll be:
Leading and mentoring a team of SOC engineers
Acting as incident commander on major cyber events
Hunting for advanced threats and improving detection
Driving continuous improvement across tools and processes
This suits someone who’s equally comfortable getting into the detail of incidents as they are coaching others and improving the wider SOC function.
If you’ve outgrown the day-to-day analyst grind but don’t want to lose your technical edge — this is that perfect middle ground.
