You will play a key role in strengthening the Bank’s ability to proactively reduce, detect, investigate and respond to insider threats.

Responsibilities

• Conduct complex, end-to-end insider threat investigations, combining behavioural analysis and technical evidence to assess intent, risk, and impact, and produce clear, defensible findings to support proportionate response actions.
• Detect and triage insider risk alerts and referrals across enterprise data sources to identify policy breaches, malicious insiders, or compromised accounts.
• Design, tune and operate insider threat use cases across insider threat platforms, such as User and Entity Behaviour Analytics (UEBA), Security Information and Event Management (SIEM), Purview Insider Risk Management (IRM), or similar technologies.
• Apply threat intelligence, and knowledge of insider tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs) to develop and refine detection logic and monitoring strategies.
• Partner with cyber and technology teams to uplift controls, including data loss prevention, conditional access, insider risk management, and behavioural analytics, to strengthen visibility of high-risk behaviours and sensitive data movement.
• Translate technical and behavioural signals into clear, actionable insights and recommendations for business areas, cyber teams, and senior stakeholders.
• Contribute to the development and continuous improvement of the insider threat program, including governance, high-risk user monitoring, and awareness initiatives.
• Support broader insider threat program objectives, including high-risk user monitoring, secure travel, awareness uplift, and continuous improvement of detection use cases and program governance.
• Represent the RBA at various domestic and international security and insider threat forums, conferences and events, remotely or in person, and contribute to establishing the RBA as a key thought leader and contributor within the space.
• Support cross-functional responsibilities or other duties as directed by the Insider Threat Program Lead.

Requirements

• At least 3 years' experience in an insider threat or other technical cyber security roles. Alternatively, a minimum of 5 years' experience in an adjacent information technology or protective security discipline.
• Strong technical understanding of the threat landscape, including insider threat tactics, techniques and procedures, behavioural indicators, and adversarial tradecraft.
• Strong hands-on experience with enterprise detection and monitoring technologies (e.g. SIEM, UEBA, IRM, SOAR), with the ability to design, tune and optimise insider threat use cases and controls.
• A broad understanding of general cyber security and information technology topics, principles and regulations relevant to a modern enterprise environment.
• Strong written, verbal and presentation skills, with the ability to clearly explain and justify analytical judgments.
• A proven ability to build and maintain effective stakeholder relationships.
