Job Description:
Security Consultant – Threat & Vulnerability Management
Location: Manchester (Hybrid)
Exclusive to our agency
We’re working exclusively with a UK-based IT services provider that specialises in secure cloud, infrastructure, and digital transformation solutions for public and private sector organisations. They combine deep technical expertise with a commitment to security and compliance, offering tailored managed services to help clients stay resilient in a rapidly evolving threat landscape.
This position is part of their growing security function, focused on delivering proactive threat exposure management and support across customer environments. The team plays a key role in identifying weaknesses, guiding remediation, and improving cyber hygiene through continuous monitoring and expert advice.
About the Role
As a Security Consultant, you’ll be the go-to expert for helping clients tackle known and emerging threats within their digital estate. You’ll assess vulnerabilities, coordinate mitigation strategies, and provide guidance to enhance security posture – all while working in a highly customer-centric, service-driven environment.
This is a hybrid role combining hands-on analysis, customer engagement, and internal service development. Your input will directly influence the security resilience of businesses that rely on this provider’s trusted managed services.
Key Responsibilities
* Deliver security improvements and measurable outcomes using tools such as Qualys and Microsoft Defender.
* Review scan results and collaborate on practical remediation plans across client systems.
* Monitor threat intelligence sources and vendor updates to ensure timely awareness of new risks.
* Work alongside internal teams to enhance security across hosted platforms and internal infrastructure.
* Help define operational standards aligned with frameworks like ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials Plus, and ITIL.
* Build and present risk-based reports to both technical and non-technical audiences.
* Develop repeatable, insight-driven reporting to support consistency across client engagements.
What We’re Looking For
* Strong technical background in vulnerability and security operations.
* Experience using scanning tools (e.g. Qualys, Nessus) and open-source analysis tools (e.g. Nmap, Wireshark, OWASP ZAP).
* Familiarity with Microsoft security products (Intune, Conditional Access, DLP, Defender Suite).
* Scripting knowledge in PowerShell or Python to automate workflows and reporting.
* Clear communicator with the ability to explain complex issues to varied audiences.
* Comfortable working autonomously and collaboratively within service-led frameworks (ITIL desirable).
* 25 days’ annual leave plus bank holidays, with flexible buy/sell options
* Additional day off for your birthday
* Life assurance at 4x salary
* Health and well-being support, including access to medical cashback plans
* Professional development and training opportunities
* Enhanced family leave after a qualifying period
* Salary sacrifice schemes available (e.g. pension, EV, cycle to work)
* Regular team engagement and social initiatives
