Have you always wanted to get into Project based work? Are you a 'swan' who can be calm and collected above water whilst there's frantic work going on underneath? Interested in tech and all things cyber security? If so, you could well be the Project Coordinator we are looking for.

Following company growth and an internal promotion, a client of ours based in Central Cheltenham is looking for a Project Coordinator. They're a cyber security and technology company with a vibrant team who maintain a fun and social working environment, whilst delivering excellent tech solutions. This is a very fast paced environment with lots of projects on the go at one time, with some turning around as quickly as 7 days! There is certainly lots of variety and you won't have the chance to get bored!

With offices based in central Cheltenham they are an easy commute and they are offering working hours of Monday-Friday 9am - 5:30pm with an hour for lunch. There is an on-site café if you prefer that to using the kitchen and the role comes with a host of benefits including 25 days holiday plus bank holidays, a Christmas shut down, pension scheme and healthy training budgets. Plus, there will be opportunities for progression as they are rapidly expanding, so ambitious career minded individuals will be welcomed with open arms.

To be a successful Project Coordinator, you will need:
·An interest to work within the information security field and a keen desire to get involved in project management work
·Time-management skills, both managing your own workload and supporting the timely delivery of work within the rest of your team
·Excellent communication skills - verbal, written and presentational
·Strong computer literacy, with experience of using CRM systems
·Initiative and self-motivation with the ability to lead when required
·Accuracy in your work and impeccable attention to detail
·The ability to undergo SC clearance alongside basic DBS vetting

This is a fantastic opportunity for a Project Coordinator who has aspirations of growing within their role, managing a full project journey from start to finish.

Our client is offering a salary in the region of £27,000 - £28,000 pa for this Project Coordinator role. Think this could take your career to the next level? Apply now and we can talk through the opportunity in more detail - we want to hear from you

How Many Cyber Security Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Cyber Security Job?

If you are trying to build or move forward in a cyber security career, it can feel like the list of tools you are expected to know never ends. One job advert asks for SIEM platforms, another mentions penetration testing tools, another lists cloud security, threat intelligence platforms, endpoint detection, scripting languages and compliance frameworks. Scroll LinkedIn and it gets worse. Everyone seems to “know” dozens of tools, certifications and platforms. Here is the reality most cyber security hiring managers agree on: they are not hiring you because you know every tool. They are hiring you because you understand risk, can think like an attacker and a defender, follow process, communicate clearly and make good decisions under pressure. Tools matter — but only when they support those outcomes. So how many cyber security tools do you actually need to know to get a job? For most job seekers, the answer is far fewer than you think. This article explains what employers really expect, which tools are essential, which are role-specific and how to focus your learning so you look credible, not overwhelmed.

The Skills Gap in Cyber Security Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

Cyber security has become one of the most critical disciplines in the modern economy. From protecting financial systems and healthcare data to securing national infrastructure, cloud platforms and supply chains, cyber security professionals now sit at the frontline of digital trust. Demand for cyber security talent in the UK has surged. Job vacancies remain high, salaries continue to rise, and organisations across every sector report difficulty hiring skilled professionals. Yet despite this demand, many graduates struggle to break into cyber security roles and employers consistently report that candidates are not job-ready. The problem is not intelligence, ambition or academic effort. It is a persistent and widening skills gap between university education and real-world cyber security work. This article explores that gap in depth: what universities teach well, what they routinely miss, why the gap exists, what employers actually want, and how jobseekers can bridge the divide to build sustainable careers in cyber security.
