Advance your Cyber career with expert advice, practical job search tips, and insightful industry guides.
Redundancy is never easy—especially in a fast-moving field like cyber security, where your skills and experience are constantly evolving. But if you’ve recently been made redundant from a cyber security role, know this: the UK cyber workforce remains in high demand, and your expertise is more valuable than ever. Whether you’re a SOC analyst, penetration tester, incident responder, security architect or GRC specialist, there are still thousands of opportunities across sectors including finance, defence, government, retail, and critical infrastructure. This guide will help you turn redundancy into a career relaunch, with a clear action plan tailored to the UK cyber security job market.
Why yesterday’s pay survey no longer protects you. “Could I earn more at a managed SOC?” “Is that fintech’s offer really competitive?” Every UK cyber‑security professional asks some version of those questions—usually after another colleague lands a pay rise, a recruiter sends a tempting JD, or a fresh breach makes headline news. Yet salary guides published even last year feel as out‑of‑date as a forgotten antivirus signature. Since 2024, ransomware gangs switched to double‑extortion, deepfake phishing exploded, & the EU’s NIS2/DORA regulations bled into UK contracts despite Brexit. With each shift, salary bands move. To cut through stale averages, CybersecurityJobs.tech distilled a three‑factor formula that lets you estimate a realistic 2025 salary in under a minute. Feed in your role, your UK region, & your seniority level. The output arms you with data‑driven leverage for your next appraisal, job application, or freelance rate card. This article explains the formula, reveals the forces pushing cyber pay ever higher, & outlines five practical moves to boost your market value within ninety days.
Cyber security is no longer just an IT issue—it’s a board-level priority. Whether you’re applying for a role in penetration testing, security operations, risk management, or compliance, your ability to clearly explain cyber threats and solutions to non-technical stakeholders is vital. This guide will help cyber security job seekers develop one of the most in-demand soft skills in the industry: public speaking. You’ll learn how to simplify complex concepts, structure effective presentations, use storytelling and analogies, and handle common stakeholder questions with confidence.
Bookmark this guide—refreshed every quarter—so you always know who’s really expanding their cyber security teams. Ransomware payouts broke records in 2024, the UK’s new Cyber Security Bill imposed mandatory breach disclosure, and the National Cyber Force’s move to Samlesbury has super‑charged the northern skills market. Result? Demand for security architects, SOC analysts, penetration testers, cloud‑security engineers, threat hunters & GRC specialists is at an all‑time high in 2025. Below you’ll find 50 organisations that have posted UK‑based cyber security vacancies or announced head‑count growth during the past eight weeks. They’re organised into five quick‑scan categories. For every employer you’ll see: Main UK hub Example live or recent vacancy Why it’s worth a look (tech stack, culture, mission) Search any company on CyberSecurityJobs.tech to view current ads, or set a free alert so fresh openings land straight in your inbox.
