Are you a cyber security expert with hands-on experience protecting industrial systems? We're working with a fast-growing UK-based consultancy that is delivering major security programmes for organisations operating in high-risk, high-impact sectors - including energy, utilities, and manufacturing.
They're now looking to expand their specialist team with a Senior OT Cyber Security Consultant, someone who understands how industrial systems work - and more importantly, how to secure them.
đ ïž Your Role
This is a client-facing consulting position focused on safeguarding operational environments - think control systems, remote access, and critical automation. Youâll work across a variety of industries to design, advise, and deliver real-world cyber solutions for operational networks.
Day-to-day, you could be:
* Carrying out risk assessments on OT environments (e.g., SCADA, PLCs, DCS)
* Helping clients build or improve their cyber security strategies and operating models
* Designing network architecture and remote access controls suited to legacy systems
* Guiding clients through frameworks such as IEC 62443, NIST 800-82, CAF, ISO 27001
* Writing and reviewing technical policies, standards, and procedures
* Translating complex technical challenges into clear, actionable plans
* Supporting the delivery of wider cyber transformation programmes
You'll work with organisations where uptime, safety, and resilience are critical - so your work will have direct operational impact.
đ What We're Looking For
Weâre after someone who blends technical expertise with strong communication and consulting skills. You donât need to be from a pure consultancy background, but you must be confident engaging with stakeholders and delivering structured solutions.
To succeed in this role, youâll need:
* A solid background in cyber security, with a focus on OT environments
* Familiarity with industrial systems like PLCs, SCADA, DCS, HMIs, etc.
* Awareness of the cyber threats, vulnerabilities, and risks in industrial sectors
* Experience designing or assessing network architectures and access control for OT
* Working knowledge of security standards (IEC 62443, NIST, ISO 27001, CAF, etc.)
* Strong documentation and reporting skills - policies, assessments, risk analysis
* Experience working in (or with) sectors like energy, transport, water, or manufacturing
* Experience with governance, compliance and risk within cyber security.
Bonus if youâve worked on security transformation projects or helped organisations move from low to high cyber maturity.
đ Why Join?
* Work on high-impact projects across critical sectors
* Be part of a growing team of OT specialists, backed by a wider cyber consultancy
* Opportunities to shape client strategy and lead technical delivery
* Flexible working model â mostly remote with client site visits as required
* Competitive salary, strong benefits package, and long-term career growth
