Manager – Security Operations

Why N-able

At N-able, we’re helping businesses become more secure, resilient, and ready for what comes next. Our end-to-end platform brings together AI-powered capabilities, flexible technology, and the expertise of a global team of N-ablites who care deeply about solving meaningful cybersecurity challenges. If you’re excited by high-impact work, continuous learning, and being part of a supportive team that shares knowledge freely, you’ll find people here who believe in what they do and in each other.

We’re looking for a Manager of Security Operations to help build and lead our SOC function in our Dundee hub, supporting MSP partners and SaaS environments. This is a chance to shape how the team operates from the ground up: bringing technical credibility, calm leadership, and a continuous-improvement mindset to a growing security operation with real customer impact.

In this role, you’ll lead SOC analysts and help ensure security alerts and incidents are handled with speed, accuracy, and care. You’ll bring structure to day-to-day operations, coach and mentor others, strengthen processes, and partner with senior leadership to raise the bar for threat detection, response, and service delivery.

If you’re a technically credible SOC leader who enjoys building teams, mentoring strong analysts, and improving how security operations work at scale, this is an opportunity to make a visible impact from day one. You’ll join a collaborative environment where curiosity, practical problem-solving, and knowledge sharing are encouraged and where your ideas can help shape a growing team.

The role is hybrid, requiring 3 days a week in the Dundee hub.
