JOB DETAILS:
MSI Reproductive Choices is one of the world’s leading providers of sexual and reproductive healthcare. We believe that everyone should have the right to choose. From contraception to safe abortion and life-saving post-abortion care, we are committed to delivering compassionate, affordable, high-quality services for all.
Today, our organisation has almost 9,000 team members working in 36 countries across the world. Our success lies in the fact that MSI teams are locally led, entrepreneurial and results-driven, and are passionate about delivering high quality, client-centred care in their own communities. As a social business, we focus on sustainable delivery, efficiency, and funding models that are built to last, so that the women and girls we serve today will have a choice in the future too. #
We know that access to reproductive choice is life changing. For some, it can mean the ability to complete an education or start a career. For others, it means being able to look after the family they already have. For everyone, it means the freedom to decide their own future, creating a fairer, more equal world.
About the Role
We are looking for a highly motivated Security Engineer who wants to take their career to the next level and join our Global Information Services (GIS) Team. Reporting to the Lead Security Engineer, you will support ongoing security operations and respond to incidents and alerts, playing a vital role in helping to keep our environment secure as we deliver our mission around the world.
In addition to providing daily security operations, you will be involved in some very exciting security initiatives, which could include Microsoft Defender for Endpoint global rollout to 8,000 endpoints in 37 countries, further Defender technology adoption, SIEM/SOC deployment, privileged identity management and audit of technical assets, cloud app security deployment, and patch management technology implementation. These initiatives are critical to helping ensure global security as we deliver our digital/technology strategy.
You will have a good understanding of security technologies and practices, ideally in Cloud computing, Azure and on-premise environments. MSI has adopted a “cloud-first” approach, with Microsoft being our favoured partner. An understanding of security frameworks, such as CIS, NIST, Cyber Essentials and ISO27001 would be advantageous.
With the fast pace of change and continued new technologies adopted by the business, it is paramount that this role is filled by a fast learner, who can deliver an impact quickly. You enjoy thinking outside of the box to problem solve, can work independently on ongoing security tasks and take pride in finding creative automated solutions, ideally using PowerShell and PowerAutomate. You will also enjoy working as part of a team.
While we are asking for a lot, we know everyone can’t tick every box, so we are looking for the right person with a set of core skills that can grow in the role. You will be supported to develop through learning about adopted technologies used in MSI, cross-training, learning on the job and formal training courses. The role can be based in the UK or any African country which MSI has a programme in. We offer a hybrid office/remote working model, with occasional exciting international travel opportunities.
About You
For us, it’s vital that every MSI team member believes in and is committed to our organisational mission, vision and values.
This means that we will only accept applications from candidates who are unequivocally pro-choice.
Our values act as guiding principles, providing us with a clear direction. They set the tone for how we approach our work, interact with others and align ourselves as ‘One MSI’. It’s important that our team members truly resonate with our values and demonstrate them consistently, in all that they do.
We recruit talented, dynamic individuals with diverse backgrounds who share our mission and are focused on delivering measurable results. As an equal opportunity employer, we are committed to fostering an inclusive workplace where everyone can participate and contribute meaningfully. We value open-mindedness, curiosity, resilience, and a solutions-oriented mindset, alongside a commitment to promoting equality and safeguarding the welfare of both team members and clients.
We seek exceptional communicators who are self-motivated, solutions-driven, and aligned with MSI’s mission and entrepreneurial mindset. You should be dedicated to driving social change in an environment focused on sustainable impact, both locally and globally, and comfortable working with diverse teams in an ambiguous setting.

• Must be able to automate solutions using automation, ideally using PowerShell and PowerAutomate.
• Understanding of cloud, infrastructure and network security principles and the technologies used to secure them.
• Ability to manage and/or action security incident in a calm and methodical way, taking charge of the situation if required, managing and assigning tasks, to deal with the incident, collaborate on minimizing the impact, restoring affected services, and understanding/addressing root cause.
• A desire and ability to learn new technologies to support a period of change and adoption of new tools to harden security across MSI.
• Understanding of security principles, technologies and techniques used for proactive security of different technologies.
• Ability to work effectively with third-party suppliers and to clearly and concisely communicate with colleagues.

To perform this role, you’ll need the following experience:
