About the Role
We're supporting a leading global consultancy as they continue to expand their Cyber Security Architecture capability.
This is an opportunity to join a specialist team delivering large-scale Zero Trust and Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) transformations for some of the UK's most complex organisations. You'll work closely with clients to define security strategy, design modern access architectures and help organisations transition away from legacy perimeter-based security models.
What You'll Be Doing
  • Designing and implementing enterprise-scale Zero Trust architectures.
  • Defining secure access models across users, applications, devices and data.
  • Developing security roadmaps, target-state architectures and transformation strategies.
  • Leading workshops and technical discussions with senior stakeholders.
  • Designing identity-centric security solutions using SSO, MFA and least-privilege access principles.
  • Supporting the adoption of cloud-native security and SASE technologies.
  • Conducting security assessments, risk reviews and architecture assurance activities.
  • Providing technical leadership across security transformation initiatives.
What We're Looking For
  • Experience working within Security Architecture or Senior Cyber Engineering roles.
  • Strong knowledge of Zero Trust principles and modern security frameworks.
  • Hands-on experience with Zscaler technologies, including ZIA, ZPA and related security services.
  • Knowledge of SASE, SSE and cloud-delivered security models.
  • Experience with identity and access management platforms such as Entra ID, Okta or Ping.
  • Understanding of modern networking concepts including SD-WAN and secure remote access.
  • Experience working with endpoint security, EDR/XDR and device posture controls.
  • Strong stakeholder management and consulting skills.
Why Join?
  • Work on large-scale security transformation programmes
  • Exposure to leading Zero Trust and SASE technologies
  • Strong investment in learning, certifications and career development
  • Opportunity to work alongside highly experienced cyber security specialists
  • Competitive bonus and benefits package
  • Clear progression pathways within a growing cyber practice
Please note: Due to the nature of the work, candidates should be eligible to undergo UK Security Clearance and ideally have 5+ years of UK address history.
