We are looking for a (Senior) Security Consultant (dependant on skills and experience) to work in our Security Consultancy team. This role sits within our Security & Resilience function where our stated mission is ensure that, ‘with our colleagues, we make sure services, money and data are available and secure at all times’.

What you'll be doing

As a Security Consultant you will be accountable for ensuring that services and change initiatives in the business areas you are aligned to are delivered in a secure and compliant manner. You’ll be working in a matrix manner with our business, change and delivery teams, supporting everything from small technology changes to major transformation programmes, driving implementation of our Security and Resilience strategies and policies in a positive and pragmatic manner which enables our colleagues to deliver their business objectives. To do this, you will be:

  • Conducting security risk assessments and providing recommendations on appropriate controls to ensure services and systems operate within risk appetite;
  • Assessing the impact of change initiatives and issuing appropriate security requirements to ensure compliance with security policy and standards;
  • Advising on the implementation of security control requirements, ensuring the design and approach of these both achieve the desired security outcome and are operationally viable;
  • Supporting change initiatives in navigating and utilising our central security services, including security monitoring, penetration testing and access management;
  • Assuring that security control requirements are met, in conjunction with our Application Security Testing team, through the project lifecycle;
  • Acting as the initial point of contact for all security and resilience related questions, queries, challenges and escalations for your aligned areas;

You will need to build strong relationships with colleagues across multiple areas, working collaboratively and proactively, to ensure Security & Resilience is effectively embedded in all projects and programmes.


About you

As a Security Consultant you will be a subject matter expert for IT Security and Information Security, with developed people skills. As a minimum you’ll:

  • Have experience in Security Consultancy role, or a related discipline e.g. Security Governance Risk and Control or Operations;
  • Have a relevant professional qualification (or be working towards certification), such as Security+ / Network+ / CISM / CISSP.
  • Have a developed understanding of risk and control methodologies and experience of practical risk assessment (ideally but not essentially in a security environment);
  • Have knowledge and understanding of relevant industry standards, frameworks and best practice, e.g. ISO / NIST / COBIT / COSO;
  • Be a resilient and highly motivated self-starter, with demonstratable robust judgement, decision making and creative problem-solving ability;
  • Be able to understand and assess the security elements of technical designs / solutions and have a proven ability to constructively challenge to deliver better business and security outcomes;
  • Have the ability to communicate complex risks / issues to technical and non-technical stakeholders to influence critical business decisions.

Our Customer First behaviours are all about putting customers and members at the heart of how we work together. You can strengthen your application by showing the behaviours that resonate with you, and how you might have already demonstrated these.

  • Say it straight - This is about being honest and direct with good intent and saying what needs to be said in the room. It’s also about being clear, precise, and using language that we and, importantly, our customers and members can understand.
  • Push for better - This is about aiming high and constantly looking for better in how we work together and serve our customers and members.
  • Get it done - This is about prioritising what will have the greatest impact, being decisive and taking accountability for delivering on the end-to-end outcome.

We know applying for jobs can sometimes feel like you’re sending an application into a black hole. We review each application individually. So, it’s a good idea to call out your most relevant experience on your application to give yourself the best chance.

  • Wellhub – Access to a range of free and paid options for health and wellness.
