Social network you want to login/join with:

  • Does solving complex problems interest you?
  • Would you thrive in a collaborative environment?
  • Do you want to apply your skills to a complex problem domain?

Then we want to speak to you.

We are recruiting for a number of Principal Consultant and Senior Consultant roles, but wherever you go, you will work on some of the most challenging and rewarding security problems in the UK, designing and developing solutions that sit at the heart of our products.

Your work at Leonardo will see you take the lead in solving customer problems in an agile, innovative and team-centric manner. There is a clear and defined pathway to achieving chartership, NCSC certification and greater responsibility.

Your work may involve:

  1. Relate- Our customers and their concerns are at the heart of what we do. As a consultant you will actively listen and empathise with our customers to build rapport.
  2. Understand– We add value by solving problems. As a consultant you will define potential solutions to problems based on your experience and technical knowledge – sometimes with only limited information to hand.
  3. Assess– At Leonardo we adopt a risk-based approach to any security problem. As a consultant you will identify, measure and analyse security risks and explain to customers how these risks could impact their business objectives.
  4. Treat– Resolving risks is the technical core of our offering. As a consultant you will assist in defining appropriate and proportionate security solutions across people, process and technology, and align to the identified risk picture through the creation of security architecture visions, patterns and designs.
  5. Assure– Having confidence in security maturity is a key requirement especially in heavily regulated industries. As a consultant you will assist in defining and performing security assessments that span people, process and technology, and recommend remediations that arise from those assessments.
  6. Develop– All our offerings are based on a core set of products. As a consultant you will help in the technical development of our products to be used across our customer sectors.

The role may involve hybrid working, but we also encourage working on site from time to time at one of our Leonardo offices and closely with our customers. Talk to us to find out more.

Our Consultants work in multidisciplinary teams spanning a range of activities that depend on the customer’s requirements and your own strengths and interests.

  • As a Senior Consultant, you will often take the lead on a technical delivery or small to medium-sized project, or lead a workstream within a larger programme.
  • As a Principal Consultant, you will be considered a technical expert in a particular cyber domain and could be asked to lead a larger programme or a concurrent series of smaller engagements.

We are recruiting for a number of roles from a variety of backgrounds and skillsets, including:

  • Risk and Governance– Helping customers to improve their security strategy, policies and procedures and designing the best way to implement them in their business. Conducting security risk assessments and presenting results to senior management in a clear and understandable manner.
  • Compliance and Maturity– Conducting security audits and presenting results in reports and dashboards to help customers to understand their security compliance and maturity. Designing audit and resilience frameworks to help customers improve their existing auditing approach.
  • Design and Countermeasures– Reviewing risk assessments, system, site and network architectures and design documentation (HLD/LLD) to identify potential exploitable vulnerabilities and propose appropriate security controls in either an IT or OT environment. Working with solution architects to ensure that systems are Secure by Design and satisfy relevant accreditation requirements.

Based upon your skills and foundation knowledge, we will assess where your knowledge and skills would best fit and discuss the options with you.
