OT Cyber Security Consultant - Critical Infrastructure | UK-wide | Hybrid

Let’s skip the part where we pretend you haven’t seen 17 other roles like this today.

Here’s what’s different:

This isn’t some generic cyber gig stuck in a dark corner of IT. This is OT. Real-world, physical infrastructure, where a misconfigured PLC doesn’t just crash a dashboard - it shuts down half the power grid.

That’s what you’ll be dealing with here.

It’s consulting, yes - but not the kind that’s all slide decks and no substance.

Here’s what you’ll actually do:

Tackle industrial control and OT cyber challenges in environments like SCADA, DCS, PLCs and RTUs
Work with electricity transmission, oil & gas, nuclear, water, and critical infrastructure clients
Design and assess security architecture in line with standards like NIST CSF, ISO 27001/27005, NERC CIP, IEC 62443 and all the other acronyms we pretend to love
Translate risk into action. No hiding behind jargon
Help clients get their OT security sorted - not just compliant, but actually secure

This role isn’t for someone who wants to coast.You’ll be client-facing, working on things that matter. Sometimes on-site (up to 5 days a week in some cases), often hybrid (2+ days). It varies - this is consulting, not clock-watching.

Salary- Upto 100k+ (plus a bonus)

What’s in it for you?

Projects that don’t all look the same
Room to grow technically without being pushed onto a management track if that’s not your thing
Actual budget for training and certifications
A team that values curiosity and straight talk over buzzwords and waffle

You don’t need to tick every box. If you’ve got solid OT security chops and know your way around industrial networks, let’s talk.

Where to Advertise Cyber Security Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Advertising cyber security jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. The candidate pool is small, heavily vetted and in high demand across government, financial services, critical national infrastructure and the private sector simultaneously. Many of the strongest candidates hold active security clearances, are not actively job-searching through general platforms, and move primarily through specialist networks and trusted referrals. General job boards reach a broad audience but lack the specificity that security professionals expect. Specialist platforms, government-affiliated channels and cleared candidate networks each serve a different part of the market. This guide, published by CybersecurityJobs.tech, covers where to advertise cyber security roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.
