6 Month Contract

Are you a Penetration Tester with a few years of hands-on experience looking to step into a more mature enterprise environment?

Do you want exposure to large-scale cloud platforms, modern security tooling, and complex real-world environments where security is taken seriously?

This is an opportunity to join a well-established organisation within the insurance sector that is continuing to invest heavily in cyber security, security engineering, and proactive threat management.

You’ll work closely with experienced cyber security professionals across cloud, infrastructure, engineering, and application security teams — helping identify vulnerabilities, improve security posture, and contribute to a modern offensive security capability within a highly regulated environment.

The business is focused on building a proactive, automation-driven security function with strong investment in cloud security, secure engineering, and continuous improvement. This role is ideal for someone looking to further develop their penetration testing and offensive security career within a supportive, enterprise-scale environment.

About The Role

This role is suited to a Penetration Tester with around 3–4 years of experience who has built solid foundational offensive security capability and is looking to deepen their exposure across enterprise environments.

You’ll be involved in internal and external penetration testing engagements across applications, APIs, infrastructure, and cloud platforms while working alongside broader security and engineering teams.

The role offers exposure to modern cloud environments, security automation initiatives, and secure engineering practices, making it a strong opportunity for someone looking to progress further into Offensive Security, Red Teaming, or Security Engineering.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Conduct penetration testing engagements across web applications, APIs, infrastructure, and cloud environments
  • Perform vulnerability assessments and security validation activities
  • Identify, assess, and document security risks and remediation recommendations
  • Partner with engineering and infrastructure teams to improve security posture
  • Support internal security reviews, threat modelling, and secure design discussions
  • Utilise modern offensive security tooling and methodologies across enterprise environments
  • Contribute to improving testing frameworks, processes, and security standards
  • Assist with remediation validation and follow-up testing activities
  • Stay current with emerging threats, vulnerabilities, tooling, and attack techniques
  • Collaborate with broader cyber security teams across cloud security, threat management, and security operations


What We're Looking For

  • 3–4 years of experience within Penetration Testing, Offensive Security, Security Engineering, or broader Cyber Security
  • Hands-on experience performing web application, API, or infrastructure penetration testing
  • Strong understanding of common attack vectors, vulnerabilities, and remediation approaches
  • Experience using tools such as Burp Suite, Nmap, Nessus, Metasploit, Kali Linux, OWASP ZAP, or similar
  • Understanding of OWASP Top 10 and common application security vulnerabilities
  • Exposure to cloud environments across AWS, Azure, or GCP
  • Good understanding of networking, authentication, operating systems, and modern web technologies
  • Ability to communicate technical findings clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • Strong analytical thinking, curiosity, and problem-solving skills
  • Relevant certifications highly regarded (OSCP, PNPT, eJPT, CEH, Security+, or similar)


Nice to Have

  • Exposure to scripting or automation using Python, Bash, or PowerShell
  • Experience with cloud security testing or container security
  • Understanding of DevSecOps and secure SDLC practices
  • Exposure to SIEM, vulnerability management, or detection engineering tooling
  • Participation in CTFs, Hack The Box, Bug Bounty programs, or personal security labs
  • Exposure to Red Teaming or adversary simulation activities


Why This Opportunity?

  • Work within a mature enterprise security environment
  • Exposure to modern cloud and security engineering practices
  • Opportunity to work on meaningful, large-scale security challenges
  • Collaborative and supportive cyber security team culture
  • Hybrid working flexibility
  • Strong long-term career development opportunities
  • Exposure to modern offensive security tooling and enterprise platforms
  • Opportunity to contribute to a growing and evolving security capability
