Job Description

About the Role

Sibylline is looking for a versatile intelligence analyst to join our team in an embedded role within a client's security function (hospitality sector). Based in the UK (Remote) or US (Chicago preferred or Remote), the intelligence analyst will play a key threat analysis integration role, combining the client’s internal capabilities with Sibylline’s intelligence resources and services. This role has a global nature, requiring a broad understanding of world affairs, as well as the ability to react quickly to changing information requirements.

The successful candidate will be the go-to source for situational intelligence assessments, providing high-quality analysis to support essential decisions for protecting staff, assets, operations, and reputation. They will gather timely and accurate information on threats and risks for the client business, presenting key findings for a busy commercial audience. During times of crisis, they may also be required to provide situational context and advice to support emergency responses. As such, they must be adaptable in a high-volume, fast-paced environment, demonstrate a high level of maturity, and be technically savvy with the ability to skillfully conceptualize and synthesize disparate information.  Familiarity with presentational software such as Tableau would be an advantage, as would experience of working with social media intelligence.

The successful candidate can expect to work standard business hours, with the occasional out-of-hours work for emergencies and time-sensitive matters. Candidates must exhibit flexibility and adaptability to changing needs of the work schedule, be a self-starter, and able to hit the ground running with the ability to work both independently and as part of a team. There may be some limited requirement for travel to conferences, meetings or client sites.

Candidates will be managed by the client’s security leadership day-to-day but will also report to Sibylline’s embed management team. Full support will be provided from our head office, including training and professional development.

This position represents an excellent opportunity for the right candidate to continue their development as an intelligence analyst with a leading firm growing at 50% per year. We offer strong career progression and are invested in building individuals' personal professional profiles. Moreover, being embedded truly offers “the best of both worlds”, giving a small firm ethos alongside large firm exposure and experience.

Duties and Responsibilities

• Quickly build a thorough understanding of the client’s systems, stakeholders, and areas of exposure, while identifying relevant threats to the client’s operations or interests to prioritise information requirements;
• Monitor the operating environment to collect, analyse, and disseminate intelligence relevant to the safety and security of the client’s staff, assets and operations; while leveraging internal systems, open-source resources, proprietary databases, and subscription services;
• Provide strategic risk forecasting on a range of themes impacting the client, including (but not limited to): crime, terrorism, political stability, freedom of movement, armed conflict, infrastructure, natural disasters, health hazards, and information security risks;
• Support the travel risk management function by monitoring client travel booking system and alerting around hi
