About LMS Security 

LMS Security Advisors is an independent security advisory business that partners with organisations to manage risk, strengthen resilience, and make informed security decisions. As part of a wider group alongside Global Protect Risk and Intelligence, we deliver trusted advice across a broad range of security environments. 

We are a values-led organisation committed to Respect, Integrity, Collaboration, and Excellence, and we are proud to support a diverse and inclusive workplace. 

Our teams work closely with clients to deliver value for money through high-quality advisory services from strategy and design through to delivery and sign off. 

Role Overview 

We are looking for an organised, analytical and detail-oriented Data Analyst to support the management, reporting and analysis of operational data across the Project Management Office (PMO). 

The role will be responsible for maintaining dashboards, reports and trackers, ensuring information is accurate, consistent and presented clearly. You will help the PMO monitor operational performance, identify trends and support data-informed decision-making. 

A key part of the role will be developing a good understanding of where data comes from, how it feeds into reporting and how it should be interpreted. 

You will not be expected to be a data engineer or technical BI specialist, but you should be confident working with data and able to investigate when something does not look right. 

This is an excellent opportunity for someone early in their analytical career who enjoys working with data and wants to develop their skills across reporting, dashboards, business analysis and data tools.
