London, United Kingdom Cortex IT Recruitment Full time

SECURITY CONSULTANT (CYBER) – client facing – hybrid – permanent – leading UK consultancy offering market leading salary

Candidates must be eligible for or have already obtained UK security clearance to be considered for this position.

The Role

Join as a cyber security consultant and embark on a dynamic career where you’ll support a diverse portfolio of esteemed UK public sector and defence organisations. Your expertise will play a pivotal role in safeguarding their ICT investments, contributing significantly to nationally critical projects that have a tangible impact on people’s daily lives.

In this role, you’ll have the opportunity to take on various responsibilities throughout the project life cycle, collaborating with a broad spectrum of clients and pioneering technologies. Your tasks may encompass offering valuable insights on information assurance matters, contributing to the formulation of IA strategies, policies, guidance, and awareness initiatives, orchestrating and overseeing security work programs, defining rigorous security requirements, devising and implementing robust security architectures, and supervising the secure development and accreditation of information systems.

Due to the nature of client-side work, some travel within the UK is expected. The base office is located in Surrey, south west of London, but the majority of your time will be spent working alongside clients at their respective sites – typically on long term projects located in and around London. As you will work significantly on client site, you will deal directly with the client, liasing with stakeholders and assignment delivery.

Career Development

Start a fulfilling consulting career where you’ll specialise in applying your expertise in information assurance and cyber security to address a diverse array of business challenges.

Throughout your journey, you’ll have the invaluable guidance of a dedicated career mentor who will offer support and insight. Additionally, the performance and development manager will conduct comprehensive six-monthly reviews to help you set and refine your career objectives.

My client are committed to fostering your professional growth by providing extensive training options. This includes a variety of learning formats such as online courses, classroom sessions, and in-house training programs.

Responsibilities

The scope of your responsibilities will be influenced by your own breadth of experience and can encompass a wide spectrum of tasks, from crafting robust security architectures to offering guidance on GRC (governance, risk management, and compliance) activities. Your responsibilities may also involve:

  • Offering your security expertise in support of significant system procurements and Agile programs, ensuring the secure delivery of solutions.
  • Identifying, analysing, and evaluating information risks across various programs, projects, and systems.
  • Communicating with risk owners and stakeholders to elucidate the origins, likelihood, and potential business impacts of information risks across the information system life cycle.
  • Identifying and presenting options for addressing or transferring information risks.
  • Authoring and/or assisting in the creation of security assurance documentation, adhering to established risk management frameworks.
  • Developing or reviewing innovative security architectures aimed at mitigating risks posed by emerging technologies and evolving business practices.
  • Providing consultancy services to customers, helping them navigate information assurance and architectural challenges.
  • Defining the scope for security testing activities and elucidating the findings, along with necessary remediation steps.
  • Engaging in security monitoring and conducting investigations into security incidents.

Whether working independently or as part of a collaborative team, your role promises a wide array of engaging and impactful responsibilities within the consultancy realm.

Qualifications And Experience

My client primarily operates within the UK defence and public sectors, making prior experience in these domains desirable, particularly in the context of ICT and enterprise solutions. Necessary qualifications and experience include:

  • A minimum of 18 months of experience in complex ICT systems, either in a technical delivery or consulting capacity.
  • A solid grasp of enterprise information and communications technology.
  • The capability to articulate and substantiate conclusions to project teams and business stakeholders.
  • Demonstrated track record in navigating client expectations and requirements.
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills.

Valuable knowledge and familiarity with the following areas would be advantageous for the role:

  • A STEM or security based degree.
  • Structured security frameworks.
  • Security, technical, and enterprise architecture methodologies.
  • Technical risk assessments.
  • Software development and delivery.
  • ICT service delivery, including ITIL.
  • Enterprise security tools, security-enforcing software, and devices.

Benefits

  • Competitive salary
  • A discretionary bonus, paid twice a year
  • 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays
  • Twice* yearly performance appraisal/pay review (*whilst at consultant and senior consultant grades, annually thereafter)
  • Investment in training relevant to an individual’s development and business needs
