DV Cleared Security Consultant - Permanent Opportunity - £70K - £95K Salary - Wyton

iO Associates are currently looking for a DV Cleared Security Consultant to join an MOD project in 2026. This is a permanent role offering £70K - £95K base salary depending on experience – you'll be asked to be onsite 2-3 days a week in Wyton.

We're looking for candidates with active DV Clearance and MOD experience – ideally within security assurance / GRC, working with MOD policies / standards (JSPs), ISO27001 and NIST. Any CISSP / CISM certifications would be ideal.

You'll be working part of a team but this role is very much a consultant role – looking into the back end of the project, identifying potential risks to the business and offering solutions to the client.

We're happy to look at candidates with a 3-6 month notice period, this will be a 2-stage interview (remote) with the client and they're hoping to reviewing CVs early next week. If interested, please send an updated CV to j.godwin @ ioassociates.co.uk and I will call you to discuss the role.
