Candidates must be eligible for or have already obtained UK security clearance to be considered for this position.
The Role:
Join as a senior information/cyber security consultant and embark on a dynamic career where you'll support a diverse portfolio of esteemed UK public sector and defence organisations. Your expertise will play a pivotal role in safeguarding their ICT investments, contributing significantly to nationally critical projects that have a tangible impact on people's daily lives.
In this role, you'll have the opportunity to take on various responsibilities throughout the project life cycle, collaborating with a broad spectrum of clients and pioneering technologies. Your tasks may encompass offering valuable insights on information assurance matters, contributing to the formulation of IA strategies, policies, guidance, and awareness initiatives, orchestrating and overseeing security work programs, defining rigorous security requirements, devising and implementing robust security architectures, and supervising the secure development and accreditation of information systems.
Due to the nature of client-side work, some travel within the UK is expected. The base office is located in Surrey, south west of London, but the majority of your time will be spent working alongside clients at their respective sites - typically on long term projects located in and around London. As you will work significantly on client site, you will deal directly with the client, liasing with stakeholders and assignment delivery.

Responsibilities:
The scope of your responsibilities will be influenced by your own breadth of experience and can encompass a wide spectrum of tasks, from crafting robust security architectures to offering guidance on GRC (governance, risk management, and compliance) activities. Your responsibilities may also involve:
- Offering your security expertise in support of significant system procurements and Agile programs, ensuring the secure delivery of solutions.
- Identifying, analysing, and evaluating information risks across various programs, projects, and systems.
- Communicating with risk owners and stakeholders to elucidate the origins, likelihood, and potential business impacts of information risks across the information system life cycle.
- Identifying and presenting options for addressing or transferring information risks.
- Authoring and/or assisting in the creation of security assurance documentation, adhering to established risk management frameworks.
- Developing or reviewing innovative security architectures aimed at mitigating risks posed by emerging technologies and evolving business practices.
- Providing consultancy services to customers, helping them navigate information assurance and architectural challenges.
- Defining the scope for security testing activities and elucidating the findings, along with necessary remediation steps.
- Engaging in security monitoring and conducting investigations into security incidents.
Whether working independently or as part of a collaborative team, your role promises a wide array of engaging and impactful responsibilities within the consultancy realm.
Qualifications and Experience:
My client primarily operates within the UK defence and public sectors, making prior experience in these domains desirable, particularly in the context of ICT and enterprise solutions. Necessary qualifications and experience include:
- A minimum of 18 months of experience in complex ICT systems, either in a technical delivery or consulting capacity.
