I am currently looking for an experienced Cyber Security Consultant (SC Cleared) for a client, working on high-profile projects. This is a remote-based role with occasional on-site attendance required.
SC Clearance (or higher) is essential - only candidates with the appropriate clearance can be considered.
In this role, you will:
* Provide security advisory expertise across projects, ensuring security is embedded throughout the entire service lifecycle - from concept and design, through development and deployment, to ongoing operation and decommissioning
* Lead and maintain security self-assessment trackers for all in-scope projects
* Ensure project security roles and responsibilities are clearly defined and agreed
* Conduct comprehensive risk assessments to identify and mitigate potential cyber threats and vulnerabilities
* Assess system compliance against relevant cybersecurity standards and best practices
* Collaborate with delivery managers, product teams, and security professionals to integrate security activities throughout the project lifecycle
* Produce key security artefacts, including risk assessments, scope requirements, risk treatment plans, and security reports
* Provide clear, ongoing reporting to senior stakeholders and technical leads
Required Skills & Experience
* SC clearance (or higher) is mandatory
* Cybersecurity risk management experience (CISSP, CISM, CRISC, or equivalent)
* Strong knowledge of cybersecurity frameworks and standards (ISO 27001, ISO/IEC 27005, NIST, COBIT, etc.)
* Deep technical knowledge of IT platforms, networks, applications, end-user devices, and cloud solutions
* Understanding of cybersecurity threats, vulnerabilities, and security controls
* Experience with security architecture frameworks (SABSA, TOGAF)
* Experience in enterprise risk management and Agile digital delivery environments
* Fluency in O365 and core business applications
What you will achieve:
* Deliver specialist security advisory services to project delivery teams
* Embed security as a continuous consideration across all stages of project delivery
* Help foster a culture where teams own their security responsibilities from design to ongoing support
Location: Milton Keynes (with occasional on-site attendance)
If you are SC cleared and experienced in guiding projects through secure design and delivery, I'd love to hear from you.
