About the role
Key Responsibilities
- Own the technical relationship: understand the customer environment end-to-end, maintain technical context, and operate as the trusted advisor in the partnership.
- Own the TAM Score narrative: interpret Environment, SOC, and Health scores into a credible story about where the customer stands and where to focus next - accountable for the quality of the diagnosis and recommendations, not the absolute score.
- Build and maintain the 12-month technical roadmap: anchored to the TAM Score, with defined quarterly focus areas tied to the highest-leverage gaps.

- Deliver reactive technical support via tickets (troubleshooting, investigation support, remediation guidance).
- Deliver proactive technical expertise and drive continuous improvement (Tier A included): posture and coverage advisory, tuning/noise reduction, cost/retention optimisation, automation uplift.
- Own technical deliverables: automation/playbooks where in scope, custom analytics and workbooks.
- Drive the operational health-check catalogue as scheduled workstreams within the roadmap.
- Advise on Defensive Breadth gaps (pentest cadence, IR retainer, EASM, DLP, tabletops, etc) - surfacing risk credibly and identifying where NCC services can close the gap.
- Maintain and refresh the threat overview as the customer's environment and threat landscape evolve.
