Cyber Security Consultant – Ideal for SME-Focused Engagement Leaders

Hybrid: Home-based with occasional office and client site visits

Everyone is leaning in to make this an even bigger success than it already is!

A multi-award-winning service provider is expanding its Cyber practice, and this is your chance to become a key player—working closely with and reporting directly to the CISO.

This is an opportunity to join a practice at an early stage, helping shape its growth while complementing an already strong portfolio of services. If you’ve built your career guiding SME clients through cyber challenges and enjoy being hands‑on, influential, and client‑facing, this role will feel like a natural next step.

The project pipeline is already robust, so you’ll step straight into meaningful work rather than waiting on the bench.

What You’ll Bring

• Proven experience delivering and leading cyber engagements for SME size clients, understanding their unique constraints, priorities, and commercial realities.
• Strong capability in identifying, prioritising, and communicating risk, paired with the ability to propose pragmatic and achievable controls that fit SME environments.
• Up-to-date knowledge of the cyber threat landscape and how it plays out across smaller and mid-size organisations.
• Experience auditing against frameworks such as ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials / Plus, and the ability to translate findings into actionable improvement plans.

If you’re ready for a role where you’re not just another cog—but a central part of building a successful, high‑performing Cyber practice—let’s have a conversation.
