We’re looking for a technically sharp, curious, and self-driven Cyber Security Analyst to join our small but dynamic cyber team here at Admiral Money. This is a hands-on role ideal for someone who’s eager to learn, get involved, and make a real impact.
About Admiral Money
Admiral Money is an exciting, new division of Admiral Group. We have the freedom and innovation of a small start-up with the security of a large parent company, Admiral.
Launching unsecured personal loans in June 2017, we have gone from strength to strength with two other product lines launched in more recent years – motor finance & second charge mortgages.
We’re looking for people who are keen to learn, excited about getting stuck in and are ready for a challenge to help us to achieve our aim of creating a special lending business for our customers.
