Senior Cyber Security Consultant

Arup’s purpose, shared values and collaborative approach has set us apart for over 80 years, guiding how we shape a better world.

This role supports the delivery of Cybersecurity Advisory Services across the UK, Europe and the wider global region, with a strong focus on Operational Technology, Industrial Control Systems and connected infrastructure. You will work on major infrastructure programmes across transport, energy, water and buildings, supporting cyber risk, governance and assurance activities that help clients define practical security requirements and embed cybersecurity into design and delivery.

At Arup, you belong to an extraordinary collective – in which we encourage individuality to thrive. Our strength comes from how we respect, share and connect our diverse experiences, perspectives and ideas. You will have the opportunity to do socially useful work that has meaning – to Arup, to your career, to our members and to the clients and communities we serve.

Is this role right for you? We’d like to hear from you if:

• You have significant experience in cybersecurity, technology risk, security assurance, governance, risk and compliance, or a related consulting or in‑house role, with exposure to cyber‑physical environments such as OT/ICS, IoT, smart buildings, electronic security systems or operationally critical services.
• You can contribute to client deliverables including security requirements, risk assessments, gap assessments, roadmaps and assurance reporting, while managing tasks to time and quality across multiple priorities.
• You are familiar with recognised frameworks and standards such as ISO/IEC 27001, NIST CSF, IEC 62443 or NIS 2, and can communicate clearly with technical and non‑technical stakeholders within multidisciplinary teams.
• You hold a degree‑level qualification, or equivalent experience, in cybersecurity, information security, computer science, engineering, technology risk or a related discipline; relevant certifications, such as CISSP, CISM, CRISC, CISA, CCSP, IEC 62443 or ISO/IEC 27001 Lead Implementer / Lead Auditor.

Unfortunately, we are unable to offer visa sponsorship for this role. Applicants must have the right to work in the UK at the time of application and for the duration of employment. Any offer made will be subject to satisfactory proof of immigration status.
