  • Support the research, analysis and reporting of emerging cyber threats, vulnerabilities, tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs)

Risk Profiling

  • Support the analysis, classification, and response to cybersecurity risks within the organisation.
  • Leverage analytics, threat intelligence and other risk indicators from common global security platforms, to develop and manage risk profiling algorithms and dashboards.
  • Develop and manage risk reporting processes for adversarial exposure, to support cybersecurity workstreams and broader risk governance.

Location

Ideally within UK/Europe or America's region.

  • Technical certifications are desirable
  • Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) - EC Council

Experience - essential

  • Demonstrable compliance or operational experience in a similar role.
  • Prior experience with attack surface discovery, exposure management, security controls validation and/or threat intelligence technologies.
  • Analytical skills to collect, analyse and interpret technical information and/or data into useful insight
  • Excellent communication skills, both verbal and written, with the ability to initiate and lead conversations with various stakeholders
  • Ability to prioritise and manage a varying workload

Experience - desirable

  • Operational delivery of red teaming or penetration testing exercises
  • Understanding of cyber security best practices including knowledge of the general cyber threat landscape and common security controls architecture.
  • Due to the global scope of the role, any multi-language capability would be desirable

Benefits

There are many benefits of being part of Grant Thornton International, working with a global and diverse team in a virtual setting is just one of them.
We pride ourselves on our inclusive culture and believe it's one of our most valuable assets.

We also recognise the importance of time off at Grant Thornton International.
Taking time away can lead to improved wellbeing and better productivity, which is why we don't cap your leave.
So if you need to take that extra Friday off (and Monday too), no problem.

We believe work is no longer a location, it is what we do.
This should help all of us deliver our best work, while achieving the right balance in our lives.
We want to build a culture of virtual inclusivity.
One where all our people have the ability to choose what works best for them but also provides our people the best shared working experience utilising the digital tools we have available.
GTIL will provide individuals with the necessary support and equipment to work effectively from home.
We also have a collaborative space to offer should you prefer working outside of your home.
