Global financial services firm seeks a Senior Security Engineer (VP grade) to be part of their ‘secure by design’ transformation programme.

This is a rare opportunity to work on a highly visible project to define and set up the baseline standards for security-by-design, and to leverage these to deliver the goal of hardening devices across both on-premise and cloud environments. You will collaborate with IT Security teams, global IT departments, and external partners to strengthen the firm’s security posture, ensure compliance, and mitigate cyber risks.

The successful candidate will have a security engineering background with a strong understanding of security controls and hardening standards such as CIS benchmarks and NSA/CISA config baselines. You will need a deep technical understanding of the underlying technologies in order to be able to challenge senior IT stakeholders effectively. The successful candidate will bring knowledge of Windows and Linux operating systems, AWS, Cisco networking tools and enterprise security frameworks.

The role would suit a VP-level candidate from an end user (any sector) or a consultancy firm.

This opportunity is offered as hybrid (2 days a week) in central London with a base salary of up to £110-115,000 plus good bonus potential and benefits.

This is an excellent opportunity to work with cutting-edge security technologies in a global organization with strong career growth opportunities.

We seek individuals from a diverse talent pool and encourage applicants from underrepresented groups to apply to our vacancies. Our commitment to fair recruitment processes means that we welcome applicants from all backgrounds, regardless of their lived experience or personal characteristics. We also invite applicants who meet most of the listed requirements, even if not all, to apply. If you require any adjustments to the application process, please let us know.

Where to Advertise Cyber Security Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Where to advertise cyber security jobs UK in 2026: the specialist boards, communities and channels that reach offensive, defensive and GRC security talent. 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.
