Junior Cyber Security Consultant

Role: Junior Cyber Security Consultant
Location: Hull (Office-based)
Salary: £30,000
Type: Permanent, Full-Time

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.

The technical cyber skills can be taught. What can't is the ability to sit in front of a client, build trust quickly, and explain things in plain language. They're prioritising someone approachable who can hold their own in client conversations from early on, with a sound underlying interest in cyber security and the appetite to develop both the technical and compliance sides in depth over time.

Key Responsibilities:

• Working alongside senior consultants on live client engagements from day one.
• Building and maintaining client relationships, acting as a reliable point of contact throughout assessments.
• Training toward IASME Cyber Essentials assessor, IASME Cyber Assurance assessor, and ISO 27001 internal auditor qualifications.
• 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
