Are you ready to work in one of the most interesting cyber security environments and share your experience to support national security?

Cyber security plays an integral role in protecting the UK against external and internal threats, acting as a deterrence to ensure that our Armed Forces have the strong cyber defences they need.

The Cyber Assessment and Advisory Service (CySAAS) provides assurance, support and advice to teams across defence. It consists of sub teams which assess specialist ICT, communication, and weapons systems.

The team is within the Cyber Defence and Risk (CyDR) organisation which sits at the forefront of Cyber Security and Information Technology within Defence. It is responsible for enabling Defence, through the provision of specialist assurance and cyber security services, across UK Defence including industry partners, other Government Departments and our international allies.

CyDR sits within Defence Digital (DD) who provide digital and technology services to our Armed Forces. Defence Digital operates at scale, with an annual budget in excess of £2Bn and a diverse team of 2,500 colleagues, aiming to make our Armed Forces some of the most technologically advanced in the world.

**Job description**:
As a Cyber Security Risk Assessor within the CySAAS team, you will provide timely, impartial and consistent assessment and advisory services across the department and our industry partners.

Your knowledge and experience will be developed to provide the expertise to ensure an accurate understanding of through-life cyber security risks and to assist in making informed business decisions. You will work with projects that involve complex technical and security challenges, which may include highly sensitive networks, cryptography and next-generation platforms. Along the way, you will strengthen links with other cyber security bodies and business functions, including business delivery partners, who provide project-based assurance activities.

You’ll need to demonstrate a talent for solving complex problems through innovation and taking a key role in stakeholder discussions. You’ll have the opportunity to advise on complex risk balance decisions and explaining cyber security policy, governance and technology to non-experts. With you on board, we will develop a culture across UK Defence which values and protects data.

In return, you will benefit from excellent learning and development opportunities tailored to your role and beyond. Whilst in post, you’ll be able to gain industry recognised qualifications, such as CISSP or CRISC and we’ll support you throughout the process.
