  • Exposure to diverse OT environments, industries and technologies

  • Private healthcare for you and your family
  • Annual performance bonus
  • Share ownership opportunities

  • Supporting organisations in securing Operational Technology and Industrial Control Systems
  • Conducting cyber security risk assessments across OT environments
  • Advising on cyber security architecture, governance and risk management
  • Working with SCADA, PLCs, RTUs and Distributed Control Systems
  • Supporting clients with compliance against industry frameworks and standards
  • Assessing and improving industrial cyber security monitoring capabilities
  • Working alongside multidisciplinary teams to solve complex operational and security challenges
  • Helping critical infrastructure operators improve resilience against emerging cyber threats


What We're Looking For

We're keen to speak with professionals who have experience in one or more of the following areas:

  • Operational Technology (OT) Security
  • Industrial Control Systems (ICS)
  • SCADA Environments
  • Process Control Systems
  • Distributed Control Systems (DCS)
  • PLCs and RTUs
  • Industrial Cyber Security
  • IoT or Industrial IoT Security
  • OT Security Monitoring and Risk Management
  • Security Architecture within Critical Infrastructure


Technical Knowledge That Would Be Valuable

Experience with industry-recognised frameworks and standards such as:

  • NCSC Cyber Assessment Framework (CAF)
  • NIS Regulations
  • ISO 27001 / ISO 27005
  • NIST Cyber Security Framework
  • IEC 62443 / ISA-99
  • NERC CIP


Interested?

If you're looking for a role that combines cyber security, critical infrastructure and consulting, while giving you exposure to a broad range of technologies and industries, we'd love to hear from you.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a growing team where you'll work on meaningful projects, develop specialist expertise and help secure some of the UK's most important operational environments.
