Penetration Tester

Our client is looking for people who want to work for a consultancy at the cutting edge of information security. They pride themselves on their unique and meticulous approach to penetration testing in order to ensure that their clients get the most value from it, providing tangible improvements to their security. They empower their consultants to utilise all of their technical ability on engagements, be creative and really get into the mind-set of an attacker in order to find vulnerabilities that others simply can't.

A Consultant within their Assurance team has the opportunity to build upon an existing knowledge of information security and penetration testing. Consultants will generally hold the CREST CRT or CHECK Team Member (or comparable) qualifications, or if coming from a non-penetration testing background, be able to demonstrate an equivalent level of technical expertise.

• Write and present reports and technical documentation
• Work independently on projects, liaising with other testers, clients and others where necessary

• Experience with a range of manual penetration testing techniques
• Apply your knowledge to find vulnerabilities in a variety of systems such as web or mobile applications and network infrastructures
• Apply your knowledge to improve methodologies, tools and processes
• Ideally working towards a CREST qualification (The Council for Registered Ethical Security Testers)

Our client is committed to providing a diverse and inclusive workplace and welcomes applications from all backgrounds.

• 30 days’ annual leave per year
• Private medical insurance
• 3 extra days leave per year for charitable work of your choice
