Junior Security Analyst

Job Description

Partner One is a leading investment group with a 30-year history of acquiring and growing successful software companies. Trusted by over 2000 of the world’s largest corporations and governments, Partner One owns some of the fastest-growing enterprise software companies globally.

We are looking for a proactive and detail-oriented Junior Security Analyst to join our fast-paced security team. In this role, you won’t just be sitting behind a desk—you will be the first line of defense across a diverse and evolving landscape of internal environments. You will be responsible for the "boots on the ground" security work: triaging alerts, maintaining our security posture through diligent patching, and ensuring our software stack is resilient.

This is an ideal role for someone who thrives on variety and wants to gain deep, hands-on experience across multiple unique technical infrastructures.

Requirements

Key Responsibilities

• Alert Response & Triage: Monitor security feeds and information systems to identify, investigate, and resolve security alerts in real-time.
• Vulnerability Management: Execute regular patching cycles and system updates to mitigate risks across diverse environments.
• Software Deployment: Assist in the installation, configuration, and maintenance of security tools and endpoint protection software.
• Identity & Access Management: Manage user permissions and ensure the principle of least privilege is maintained across various platforms.
• Documentation: Maintain clear logs of incidents and resolutions to help build our internal knowledge base.

What You’ll Need

• Foundational Knowledge: A solid understanding of networking protocols (TCP/IP), operating systems (Windows/Linux), and common security threats.
• Technical Agility: Ability to quickly adapt to different technical setups and software requirements as you move between projects.
• Problem-Solving Mindset: You don't just see an alert; you want to know why it happened and how to stop it from happening again.
• Communication: Clear, concise communication skills—you’ll need to explain technical fixes to team members with varying levels of expertise.
• Relevant Certifications (Bonus): CompTIA Security+, GIAC, or similar entry-level security certifications are a plus but not a requirement.

Why Join Us?

You won’t be stuck in a silo. Because we operate across a wide array of distinct environments, you will gain the equivalent of three years of experience in your first twelve months. If you are looking for a high-growth environment where your work has a direct impact on the safety of our operations, we want to hear from you.
