A dynamic and innovative cyber security consultancy is seeking a Senior Consultant specializing in cyber risk. This small, young consultancy thrives on challenges and values diverse perspectives. Known for their unconventional approach, they work with senior clients such as CIOs, CTOs, CISOs, CEOs, and NEDs, focusing on long-term, outcome-driven engagements rather than one-off deliverables.

This consultancy emphasizes collaborative and secure work with clients, utilizing automation tools, progress tracking, and shared findings. Their projects are diverse, encompassing risk identification, frequency analysis of risk events, and quantification of operational impacts. Services also include Cyber Scorecards, in-depth security posture assessments, and cyber exercises (war games) for leadership teams.

• Assess security postures and conduct quantified cyber risk assessments at the intersection of cyber security and business operations.
• Collaborate with clients using internally developed and open-source tools.
• Lead engagements with senior business leaders, IT, security teams, and board members.
• Identify and prioritize protection needs, understand risk consequences, and develop recommendations.
• Problem-solve by breaking down challenges, documenting assumptions, and delegating tasks as needed.
• Communicate findings and recommendations effectively, focusing on realistic, user-centric solutions.
• Manage projects autonomously, keep clients updated, and occasionally travel to client sites, primarily in the South East of the UK.
• Approximately four to five years of experience in cyber risk, including consulting project management and team leadership.
• Strong communication skills for engaging with senior stakeholders.
• Ability to question and challenge the status quo effectively.
• Cyber certifications are beneficial but not mandatory.
• Remote-first working with regular Team Days for in-person connection
• 25 days holiday plus public holidays, with additional unlimited flexible days off
• Tax-free utility bill contribution (£6/week)
• Pension scheme (5% company contribution)
• Discretionary bonus scheme (up to 10% of salary)
• Annual funding for external training and professional qualifications
• High-quality IT equipment for remote work
