Job Description:
Senior OT Cyber Security Consultant
£70,000 to £90,000 | Home-based, UK-wide | Permanent
We're hiring for a specialist industrial cyber security consultancy that works with critical national infrastructure and manufacturing clients across the UK and abroad. They have more work than people, so this is a senior hire to lead client engagements from day one.
What you'll be doing
- Leading OT cyber risk assessments on client sites, which is around 80% of the role
- Carrying out site surveys across ICS, SCADA, DCS and wider OT environments
- Building improvement roadmaps and security programmes to move clients from low maturity to a secure, resilient state
- Applying standards such as IEC 62443, NCSC CAF, NIST SP 800-82 and HSE OG86 to real industrial environments
- Working with the sales team on follow-on opportunities and proposals
- Getting involved in implementing countermeasures if you want to (optional, as there's an in-house engineering team)
What you'll need
- Experience leading OT cyber risk assessments, not just taking part in them
- Ideally, consultancy experience. Strong end-user candidates from CNI sites will also be considered
- A solid grounding in OT security: PLCs, RTUs, SCADA, DCS, industrial protocols, network security and countermeasures
- Experience in at least one industrial sector, such as energy, water, chemicals, oil and gas or manufacturing
- The confidence to lead client engagements and act as the expert on site
- Clear, accurate report writing and close attention to detail
Nice to have
- IEC 62443 experience or certifications (fully funded training is provided if not)
- CISSP, CySA+ or NCSC Chartered status
The package
- £70,000 to £90,000 depending on experience
- 5% of salary towards training and certifications each year
- Salary reviews every six months, with a clear skills matrix for progression
- Home-based, with site visits once or twice a month (usually 3 to 5 days, scheduled within working hours where possible)
- Flexible working hours, with all expenses covered
- Pension and the option to buy extra holiday
