Senior Cyber Security & Network Project Engineer
Location: Brighton / London / South East / Hybrid
Package: £70-100K + Pack
Type: Full-time | Award-winning MSP

We're working with a highly respected, independent tech firm that’s redefining what great looks like in cybersecurity and network solutions. With a track record of delivering some of the most complex infrastructure projects in the UK and Europe, they’re now looking to grow their senior engineering team with someone who can lead from the front — technically and strategically.
This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced Cyber Security & Network Engineer who thrives in a hands-on role, enjoys client engagement, and wants to shape the future of secure, intelligent networks.

The Role

You’ll work closely with the presales, delivery, and solutions teams to design and implement market-leading network and security solutions. This is a key technical role, blending project engineering with solution consulting, so strong communication and client-facing skills are essential. You’ll also provide escalation support and help mentor more junior engineers.

What We’re Looking For

Significant experience in a senior technical role within a managed services or consultancy environment
Proven background in presales consulting — including scoping, technical proposals, and customer engagement
Deep technical knowledge across routing, switching, and cyber security technologies (e.g. Palo Alto, Fortinet, Cisco)
A solid grasp of modern security frameworks and concepts such as Zero Trust, IAM, and SASE
Strong problem-solving skills and a collaborative, proactive mindset
Relevant certifications (e.g. CISSP, CCNP Security, NSE4, PCNSE) are highly desirable Why Apply?

You’ll be joining a company that truly invests in its people — with paid study leave, flexible working, and clear development pathways
Be part of a forward-thinking, inclusive team that values innovation and collaboration
Work on major public and private sector projects using best-in-class technologies If you're a technically strong, customer-focused engineer looking for your next challenge in a business that values impact over hierarchy — we’d love to hear from you.

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

Where to advertise cyber security jobs UK in 2026: the specialist boards, communities and channels that reach offensive, defensive and GRC security talent. 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.

Cyber Security Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Cyber Security Jobs UK 2026: roles, salaries and the threat intelligence, cloud security and zero-trust hiring trends shaping UK cyber careers. Cyber security is one of the few sectors where demand for talent has never once dipped. Every major technological shift of the past decade — cloud migration, remote working, AI adoption, the proliferation of connected devices — has expanded the attack surface that security professionals are expected to defend. And every expansion of that attack surface has generated more jobs. But the cyber security jobs market of 2026 is not simply a larger version of what it was three years ago. It is a structurally different market. The threats have evolved, the technologies used to combat them have changed, the regulatory environment has tightened considerably, and the roles being created reflect all of that. A job seeker who understands only the cyber security landscape of 2023 is already working with an outdated map. The candidates who will thrive over the next three years are those who understand where the sector is heading — which specialisms are attracting the most investment, which technologies are reshaping defensive and offensive security practice, and how the definition of a cyber security professional is broadening well beyond the traditional image of a network defender in a SOC. This article breaks down what the UK cyber security jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career ahead of the curve.
