To be successful in this role you need to have the ability to work on multiple projects and with many stakeholders concurrently.
Your purpose:
- Provide Cyber Security advice and guidance for Critical National Infrastructure clients in ‘business as usual’, technical refresh and new project environments.
- Be able to apply technical knowledge, with creative and innovative thinking in a broad range of complex and non-routine contexts.
- Identify and establish good security governance to meet client business requirements.
- Perform Cyber Security risk assessments and determine the most cost-effective deployment of security controls and solutions in line with the business risk appetite to protect OT systems and maximise uptime and resilience.
- Create client policies and procedures to meet corporate and regulatory requirements and standards, taking into account normal working practices in OT environments.
- Select appropriate technology to meet clients’ security requirements and help them deploy that technology in a live CNI environment.

- Ability to work on multiple projects and tasks concurrently, successfully balancing business and client priorities and delivering security outcomes to tight deadlines whilst managing client stakeholder expectations.
- Ability to work effectively both individually and within a team in a multi-discipline environment and in a matrix organisation.
- Deep understanding of the way that OT systems are procured, designed, deployed and operated, including best practice around the way that cyber security is factored into these processes.
- Familiarity with one or more OT cyber security standards or regulatory frameworks such as IEC 62443, NIST CSF, the Network and Information Systems (NIS) Regulations or HSE OG-0086. GICSP, IEC/ISA 62443 or other cyber security qualification with strong relevance to OT cyber would be an advantage.
