Summary:
We're working with a Hull-based cyber security consultancy to recruit a Junior Cyber Security Consultant into their growing team. This is a development role with a clear, funded pathway to becoming a fully qualified cyber practitioner.

- Supporting Cyber Essentials and Cyber Assurance assessments, gathering evidence and documenting controls.
- Helping clients prepare for audits and certification cycles.
- Translating technical findings into clear language for non-technical stakeholders.
- Keeping engagements moving - notes, follow-ups, and pulling threads together so clients always know where they stand.
Requirements:
- Approachable, with strong interpersonal skills and the ability to build relationships with clients at different levels.
- A sound grounding and genuine interest in cyber security, covering both technical and compliance sides.
- Clear written and verbal communication.
- Problem-solving mindset and willingness to learn.
- Within commuting distance of Hull (this is an office-based role).
- Ex-forces applicants are actively encouraged - the business holds the Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust Bronze level.
Benefits:
- £30,000 starting salary
- Fully funded training pathway to three industry-recognised qualifications.
- Long-term career development with a growing consultancy
- Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust Bronze employer
