ReRoot Cyber is seeking highly skilled and forward-thinking CHECK Team Members to join one of the UK’s most respected testing teams.


This is an independent, privately owned testing consultancy led by industry-recognised names who are hackers at heart.


This team is led by an active penetration tester who understands the niggles of day penetration testing operations. As a result, engagements are centred around making your day-to-day responsibilities as easy as possible, with a pure focus on value added testing.


Most of your time will be spent on advanced testing and large-scale engagements that give you the opportunity to collaborate with wider technologists. (engineers, developers and blue teamers)


They have no problem with 2+1’s and pub sec engagements… but that’s not where they phish.


If you thrive on bringing ideas to life, creating bespoke tools and adding true value to your clients, then this is the penetration testing team for you.


This is a home based position with very very very limited travel & public sector work.


Full right to work in the UK is required


Ideally you will:

  • Hold active CHECK Team Member Status
  • Have experience with creating bespoke tools & scripts
  • Possess strong Infrastructure/Networking Knowledge
  • Have a desire to continually learn about the security of new technologies
  • Hold a genuine enthusiasm for solving problems & thinking outside the box


Despite being a CHECK penetration testing provider, the business is increasingly focused on commercial engagements in areas we know are proving popular amongst testers. (Cloud, OT, Red & Purple Teaming)


If you want to work on technically challenging engagements for a team that has a board approved ‘hacker first’ mandate for their team, do get in touch to learn more.


Apply now or get in touch on to learn more.

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.
