Job description

We’re looking for a Cybersecurity Consultant who’s ready to roll up their sleeves and help clients build stronger, smarter security programs. In this role, you’ll get to dig into real-world environments, spot risks, and recommend practical ways to keep people, data, and operations safe. You won’t just be sitting in the background—you’ll be working directly with IT teams, business leads, and your own teammates to make a real impact.

You’ll be part of a fast-paced consulting group where no two days look the same. Some days you might be running through a risk assessment or mapping controls to frameworks like NIST or ISO, other days you’ll be helping clients update their disaster recovery plans or sitting in on workshops. The work is varied, hands-on, and gives you plenty of chances to grow alongside senior advisors.

What you’ll be doing

• Helping deliver cybersecurity assessments and maturity reviews (NIST, ISO, CIS, etc.).
• Running risk assessments and helping clients figure out which fixes matter most.
• Supporting clients as they build or improve Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery programs.
• Pitching in on Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) projects.
• Drafting reports, recommendations, and roadmaps clients can actually use.
• Jumping into project meetings, keeping notes, tracking progress, and making sure nothing slips.
• Building solid relationships with client teams—from analysts to IT managers—and supporting senior colleagues with presentations and summaries.
• Keeping up with the latest threats, tools, and best practices and sharing them with the team.

What we’re looking for

• 3–6 years of experience in cybersecurity, IT risk, or consulting.
• A working knowledge of frameworks like NIST, ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI-DSS, or HIPAA.
• Hands-on know-how in at least one of these areas:
• Cloud security (AWS, Azure, GCP)
• Identity & Access Management (IAM)
• Vulnerability management
• Security architecture or hardening
• Some familiarity with risk management, incident response, and business continuity.
• Certifications like Security+, CEH, CISM, or CISSP Associate are a plus.

A little about you

• You’re curious and like problem-solving.
• You can explain techy stuff in a way non-tech folks understand.
• You’re organized, good with details, and comfortable juggling a few things at once.
• You like working with a team and are open to learning from others.
