Job Description:

Join a fast-growing, inclusive, and collaborative cybersecurity consulting firm where your expertise is valued and your career can thrive!

Our client, a specialised Cyber Security Consulting firm, is expanding rapidly. They’re looking for an ambitious and driven Senior Cyber Security Consultant to join their Cyber GRC Risk Advisory team.

About the role:

As a Senior Cyber Security Consultant, you’ll play a key role in Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC), helping clients across a number of sectors strengthen their security posture. You’ll work with industry-leading frameworks like Cyber Essentials (CE), Cyber Essentials Plus (CE+), NIST 2, ISO 27001/223001, DORA, and more.

This is the perfect opportunity if you’re looking for more autonomy, rapid career growth, and a dynamic environment—far from the rigid structures of large corporate consultancies.

As a Senior Cyber Security Consultant, what will you be doing?:

• Offer consultancy services to a wide range of clients with varying needs across different industries and regions. This may involve working as part of a team or taking the lead on projects. The role is expected to independently manage small to medium-sized engagements, collaborating with senior and principal consultants as needed.
• Lead and contribute to diverse security projects, including third-party risk management, mergers and acquisitions, security policy development, ISO 27001 implementation, audits and compliance (NIS 2, DORA), risk assessments, remediation programs, and more.
• Lead, manage, and deliver full cyber security engagements end-to-end, including preparing for and conducting Cyber Essentials Plus assessments, advising on required technical controls, and assisting with any required external audits.
• Support clients in establishing and enhancing third-party and supplier risk management processes, conducting maturity assessments, and advising on industry best practices.
• Identify target security operating models and maturity, helping senior client management to define and transform their security postures.
• Collaborate internally to strengthen and expand consulting capabilities in line with industry trends and client needs.

What You Bring as a Senior Cyber Security Consultant:

• 2+ years of information security consulting
• Experience of Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) frameworks such as ISO 27001, ISO 223001, NIST, DORA and other regulatory standards.
• Experience conducting Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus assessments and guiding clients through the certification process, with a strong understanding of the technical and governance requirements.
• Experience with risk assessments, gap analyses, and creating security operating models tailored to client needs.
• Confidence in client-facing roles, delivering actionable insights and security advice to stakeholders at all levels.
• A commitment to knowledge sharing, with the ability to mentor and uplift team capabilities.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to clearly explain and document concepts and solutions for both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Strong adaptability to juggle multiple projects simultaneously while ensuring client needs and deadlines are met.

What’s in It for You?

• Flexible Working – Mostly remote with occasional client-site visits. Office available for those who prefer hybrid working.
• Training & Certifications – Generous annual training budget to support your professional development.
• Collaborative Culture – Work in a diverse, supportive and fun environment with networking opportunities and access to industry events.
