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 to completion. Members are supported to improve or, in extreme cases, are removed from the scheme.

We seek a senior penetration tester with experience in quality assuring other penetration testers' outputs, ideally in an operational environment. Experience as an assessor for a penetration testing exam body is also desirable.

Experience in the Scheme is preferred but current contracts should be avoided to prevent conflicts of interest. The candidate should also have experience as a senior member of an adversary simulation team overseeing and quality assuring others.

The role involves:

• Sampling reports to ensure adherence to standards and ongoing technical capability.
• Sampling new Team Leaders’ reports and providing coaching/remedial activities.
• Evaluating new applications from companies wishing to join the Scheme.

SC Clearance is required. The role is 90% remote with occasional meetings in Gloucestershire or London.
