Job Description

Flexible working - We are guided by our client work and needs; however, you have autonomy to manage your time and diary to suit your work/life balance.

PA's Financial Services Cyber Security team helps our clients navigate a complex environment of risk and regulatory expectation. We bring together strong awareness of all aspects of cyber security, from cutting-edge technology to fundamental aspects of people and process change. We help our clients set strategy, assess their maturity, reduce risk, and support the business.

For our Financial Services clients, we see Cyber Security as a critical business enabler. Alongside compliance and the ability to protect critical information and assets, it can create opportunities for greater market focus and drive growth. This progressive and open-minded approach to Cyber Security is key to what we do.

Cyber Security Consultants at PA engage in a range of different activities:
  • Client facing consulting engagements covering a range of different areas. For example:
  • Cyber maturity assessment - assessing clients using a combination of open source and our own frameworks and advising on improvements.
  • Risk reporting - supporting clients communicate levels of exposure, including through the use of tooling and automation.
  • Strategy development - Setting out structured approaches for delivering cyber improvement, aligned to cyber maturity and also broader business need.
  • Project and programme delivery - Delivery of projects and programmes, to include overarching project and programme management as well as supporting disciplines such as culture change, business analysis and policy development.
  • Procurement - Support to procure tooling and managed services, including advice on the operation of competitive procurement exercises.
  • People and culture change - understanding of the drivers of people and culture change, including their relationship with Insider Risk.
  • Advising on regulatory expectations - supporting clients meet the regulatory expectations of Financial Services regulators, in particular the translation of principles-based regulation into practical improvement steps.
  • Internal research and development of thought leadership - researching into areas that are relevant to our clients and being able to provide advice and insight, either to other PA teams or in client facing situations.
  • Business development - active support for the business development process to include the preparation of proposals, coordination of events, and delivery of presentations.
Our Financial Services Cyber Security team is growing. We are looking for consultants who can contribute to that, by sharing their expertise, developing their peers, and creating genuinely differentiated thinking.

Qualifications
