Our Client
Our client is a global professional services firm with a strong presence in the UK. With a solid cyber security pedigree, the company is often the first responder to some of the most pressing cyber security issues of the day.
Cyber Forensics and Litigation is a rapidly growing vertical. The current practice members are running at a high utilisation rate and they are looking for experienced, commercially savvy candidates who want to join a team on a strong growth path.
Clients of the firm often require time-sensitive assistance, handling threats to organisations that are part of the UK's Critical National Infrastructure (CNI), and that of the CNI of other countries in the EMEA zone. Inter-practice collaboration is vital to ensure that those requests are handled expediently and the team values internal stakeholder management skills highly.
Please note that we can only consider UK-based candidates for this role.

You will bring a mix of creativity and proactivity to help the firm define and deliver market-leading propositions. You will be an excellent coach that will help more junior members of the team develop and flourish.

You will lead triage breach response, analyse data, and understand underlying causes and issues
