Cyber Security Consultant in Hampshire

We are seeking to hire a Cyber Security Consultant to join our growing team. Evalian is a cyber security and data protection consultancy business specialising in penetration testing, security advisory, ISO 27001 certification, managed detection & response and data protection compliance. We work with a broad range of clients, from ambitious start-ups to global organisations and leaders in their field, delivering pragmatic and commercially focused cyber security and data protection services.

The role will be ideal for someone with at least 1-2 years of information/cyber security experience who is looking to progress their career, work on a range of interesting projects, and accelerate their professional development. Applicants with a GRC or technical background are welcomed provided you have a good knowledge and understanding of information security concepts and suitable experience. Client facing work and security qualifications would be ideal but are not essential.

Working with senior consultants, you will support short and medium-term engagements in a variety of consultancy activities (depending on your experience) including:

• Cyber gap analysis against best practice
• Cyber Essentials readiness and assessment
• Incident response planning
• Incident response exercising
• Supply chain security assurance and remediation
• Secure software development
• Phishing / social engineering assessments
• Physical penetration testing
• Security awareness training
• Risk assessments and threat modelling
• Policy development and security governance and compliance
• Virtual CISO / outsourced security management

You will have at least 1-2 years of information/cyber security experience, ideally in a client facing role (but candidates with in-house experience will be considered). Security qualifications are desirable but not essential. We will prepare a development programme for successful candidates which will include support for earning industry standard certifications.

You will need to be a self-starter who will fill in gaps in your knowledge through continued professional development; and you will want to attain additional security qualifications, supported by your employer and be willing to commit some personal time for studying for these. The successful candidate will have strong written and verbal communication skills.

The salary will depend on your experience and qualifications but will be in the range of £45,000 - £65,000. All employees get 25 days of annual leave, plus bank holidays and Birthday Day Off. Benefits include 5% employer contribution pension scheme, life insurance including employee assistance programme and on completion of probation, private medical insurance including dental and optical cashback.

We are happy to hear from candidates who are interested but whose experience and qualifications exceed the specification and justify a higher salary range. If this applies, please include a cover letter with your CV along with your salary expectations.

The role can be office based, home based or hybrid. With this in mind, we are happy to receive applications from candidates in any part of the UK provided you can work effectively from home and are willing to travel to client sites from time to time. If you are home based, you'll need to have a dedicated, secure, working area and reliable internet connection. We may request that you attend our offices or events from time to time for various purposes, but we’ll always provide you with advance notice. Travel expenses will be reimbursed.

We are not working with agencies at this time. Thank you. We are committed to encouraging equality, diversity and inclusion among our workforce, and eliminating unlawful discrimination.
