THE CYBER SECURITY CONSULTANT ROLE
As Cyber Security Consultant, you will support the alignment and governance of high-severity security incident and vulnerability management processes across multiple suppliers.
You will coordinate suppliers, establish consistent approaches to incident severity, vulnerability prioritisation and risk acceptance, and ensure security outputs are evidence-driven, audit-ready and aligned with client policy.
This is primarily a governance and coordination role rather than a hands-on SOC, incident response or vulnerability remediation position.
