Job description

Security Operations Center (SOC) programmes and Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) platforms sit at the centre of this Accenture Security position in Kuwait City. Across client engagements, you will lead the design, delivery and continuous improvement of security solutions, from defining requirements to overseeing the build and testing of security components. Tools in play include Microsoft Sentinel, Splunk and IBM QRadar, alongside EDR, SOAR, threat intelligence platforms, IAM and vulnerability management tools. Regular vulnerability assessments feed into remediation roadmaps that clients can act on. People management is a real part of the job, covering resource allocation, workload and quality across concurrent workstreams, plus capability-building sessions for the team. When complex security issues escalate, they come to you for solutions that weigh risk, cost and business impact. Infrastructure, application and risk functions are regular partners, so security is built into the whole delivery lifecycle. Most candidates bring 6 to 9 years in cybersecurity, much of it in delivery or consulting, with expert-level SOC planning and maturity assessment skills. Knowledge of NIST, ISO 27001 or NCA ECC is strongly preferred, and certifications such as CISSP, CISM, CEH, CompTIA Security+ or Microsoft SC-200 are valued.
