We are working with a growing Consultancy who are looking to add to their existing Cyber/Information Security team with a number of hires.

The role would require a wide-range of technical knowledge. Whilst not being a hands-on role, you will be required to be a conduit between the technical and non-technical members, assisting with delivery of projects for a number of high profile clients.

KEY SKILLS

Experience in a number of the following areas:

  • Frameworks such as JSP440, JSP604, NIST, ISO27001
  • Knowledge of Secure architecture and what looks good
  • Ability to write policies and understand high-level documentations
  • Risk Assessments/Risk Management

    The above are not exhaustive, nor exclusive but the more wider the knowledge the more your application would have a chance of being successful.

    The role would require people to be on client sites 3-4 days per week, largely across the South West, but sometimes into the City of London area.

    You would also need to be SC cleared as minimum (or eligible to be SC/DV cleared)

Why Cyber Security Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Cyber security used to be viewed primarily as a technical discipline: firewalls, encryption, intrusion detection, penetration testing. In the UK today, it’s far broader. Organisations now face complex legal frameworks, ethical dilemmas, human-behaviour risks, communication challenges & usability hurdles. This shift means cyber security careers are becoming more multidisciplinary. From protecting NHS patient records to defending financial services, securing supply chains & safeguarding national infrastructure, cyber security now touches every sector. Employers increasingly want professionals who understand law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design alongside traditional technical skills. In this article, we’ll explore why UK cyber security careers are expanding in this way, how these five disciplines shape the profession, and what job-seekers & employers need to know to thrive in this new landscape.
