Job Description:

The Industry Assurance team in Cyber Growth runs the Assured Penetration Testing Scheme on behalf of a public sector client, which mandates or strongly recommends such testing across all departments and infrastructure.

The team assesses the methodology and work of all scheme members from application through completion. Members are supported to improve, or may be removed if necessary.

We seek an individual with experience as a senior penetration tester responsible for quality assurance of other testers' output in an operational environment. Experience as an assessor for a penetration testing exam body is also desirable.

Ideally, candidates will have previous experience with the Scheme but should not have current contracts to avoid conflicts of interest.

The candidate should also have experience as a senior member of an adversary simulation team, overseeing and quality assuring team outputs.

The role involves:

• Sampling reports throughout the year to ensure adherence to standards and technical capability.
• Sampling new Team Leaders’ reports, providing coaching/remedial support as needed.
• Evaluating new applications from companies wishing to join the Scheme.

SC Clearance is required for this role.

The position is 90% remote, with occasional meetings in Gloucestershire or London.
