Your role will be varied for both offensive and defensive security. One day you could be pen testing critical infrastructure or applications, the next day you could be engineering a simulated attack scenario for a covert red teaming engagement. Time with the blue team is also very valuable – you’ll learn how SOC teams develop signatures for Advanced payloads and get some time on the front lines when incidents are discovered in real-time.
Cyber Security Consultant
Become part of our dynamic team.
Join the cyber security sector.
Do you enjoy a good bug bounty, CTF event or analysing malware? Do you think outside of the box to solve unique and complex challenges? JUMPSEC might be the right workplace for you! We are looking for enthusiastic candidates to join our cyber security team based in London.
Our team emphasises a strong work ethic and our fundamental philosophy is to try harder if we don’t succeed at first. We get excited every time we pop a shell no matter how many times it happens. Great flexibility and freedom with projects and the support of working in a team is what we always stand by. You'll be working with like-minded people in an agile and fast-growing team, where you'll have a chance to learn quickly about a wide variety of different security assessments.
Do you have a passion for hacking?
- Are you interested in new technologies? Enjoy building your own instance and/or breaking it?
- Do you appreciate a good challenge and solving complex issues in cyber security?
- We are looking for people who are eager to gain a better understanding of security issues. The
attitude to “write your own tool if you have to” in order to solve tricky problems is what we’re
after
Are you self-motivated?
- A good pentester should stand-out from a vulnerability analyst. Equally, a good threat-hunter is one that is willing to dive deep into a security alert and has the determination to find the root cause of the security incident.
- Are you eager to study/practice and catch up on InfoSec news in your own time? Being motivated to pursue mastery of the subject area of your choice in order to better yourself and the team is a quality we highly value.
- JUMPSEC wants to facilitate and encourage career development for all technical team members. Applicants should want to be high-achieving and conscientious in their pursuit for knowledge and experience.
Are you equipped with good communication skills?
- Whether it’s working within a team to explore issues together, helping colleagues exploit a target, or communicating to a client how to improve their perimeter and overall security, communication skills are vital.
- Be willing to share! You should be keen to share your recently acquired knowledge with your peers, and teach others what you have discovered.
- Report writing is a critical skill for a cyber security consultant, as communicating threats to an organisation and demonstrating the risk (even to a non-technical client) will be a part of your day-to-day.
