We are working with a specialist penetration testing organisation who are looking to expand their red teaming capability. This is a fully remote role, offering the chance to join a highly technical team delivering advanced security testing and offensive security projects for a wide range of clients.

As a Red Teaming Consultant, you will be responsible for planning and delivering complex engagements that replicate real-world threat scenarios. You will work closely with clients to help them understand their security posture, identify weaknesses, and test detection and response capabilities. The role will cover a range of offensive security activities, from targeted attack simulations and covert operations through to collaborative purple team exercises.

We are interested in speaking with consultants who have:

Strong background in penetration testing and offensive security.
Experience delivering red team or adversary simulation engagements.
Familiarity with frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK or CBEST/TIBER.
Knowledge of common attack techniques and toolsets used by advanced threat actors.
Strong communication skills, with the ability to explain technical findings in clear business language.

This role offers the opportunity to work fully remotely within a flexible and supportive team, with exposure to some of the most interesting and challenging security testing projects in the industry. You’ll also benefit from ongoing professional development, training opportunities and a clear progression path within a growing consultancy

Top 10 Skills in Cyber sScurity According to LinkedIn & Indeed Job Postings

In today’s digital age, cyber security is no longer optional—it’s mission-critical. From financial institutions to healthcare providers, government departments to tech startups, every sector in the UK is under rising cyber threats. As a result, employers are constantly on the hunt for skilled professionals who can defend, detect, and respond effectively. But with cyber threats evolving at pace, what exactly are employers seeking? By analysing job postings on LinkedIn and Indeed, this article reveals the Top 10 cyber security skills UK organisations are demanding in 2025. Read on to discover how to present these skills effectively on your CV, in interviews, and through practical proof of experience.

The Future of Cybersecurity Jobs: Careers That Don’t Exist Yet

Cyber security has become one of the most critical issues of our age. Once regarded as a technical problem confined to IT departments, it is now a board-level priority, a government mandate, and a daily necessity for individuals. The shift towards cloud services, remote working, connected devices, and artificial intelligence has dramatically increased the risks of digital attacks. In the UK, cyber security is central to national resilience. The government has identified cyber as a “tier one” threat to national security, alongside terrorism and pandemics. The private sector, from banks to retailers, now sees data breaches and ransomware as existential risks. Global spending on cyber security is projected to exceed $250 billion by 2030, with the UK already home to a thriving cyber industry employing tens of thousands. Yet, as powerful as the industry already is, we are only at the beginning. The technologies shaping the next two decades—AI, quantum computing, edge computing, extended reality, and biotechnology—will radically reshape cyber security. Many of the most vital cyber security jobs of the future don’t exist yet. This article explores why new roles will emerge, the careers likely to appear, how today’s jobs will evolve, why the UK is well-positioned, and how professionals can prepare now.

Seasonal Hiring Peaks for Cybersecurity Jobs: The Best Months to Apply & Why

The UK's cybersecurity sector has emerged as one of the most critical and lucrative technology markets, with roles spanning from security analysts to penetration testers and chief information security officers. With cybersecurity positions commanding salaries from £28,000 for junior security analysts to £140,000+ for senior security architects, understanding when organisations actively recruit can dramatically impact your career trajectory in this essential field. Unlike traditional IT sectors, cybersecurity hiring follows distinct patterns influenced by threat landscapes, regulatory compliance cycles, and incident response requirements. The sector's unique combination of perpetual threat evolution, regulatory pressures, and skills shortages creates predictable hiring windows that strategic professionals can leverage to advance their careers in protecting Britain's digital infrastructure. This comprehensive guide explores the optimal timing for cybersecurity job applications in the UK, examining how cyber threat cycles, compliance deadlines, and government initiatives influence recruitment patterns, and why strategic timing can determine whether you join a cutting-edge security consultancy or miss the opportunity to defend against tomorrow's cyber threats.
