Internal Red Team Consultant
As an Internal Red Team Consultant, you will help assess and strengthen the security of critical systems, applications, infrastructure and business processes. Working as part of a collaborative security function, you will plan and deliver authorised red team exercises, penetration tests and adversary simulations that reflect realistic threats. You will identify weaknesses across people, processes and technology, safely demonstrate potential business impact, and provide clear, practical recommendations that support measurable risk reduction.
Your responsibilities will include defining assessment objectives and scopes, developing attack paths, conducting reconnaissance, exploiting vulnerabilities within agreed rules of engagement, and documenting evidence to a professional standard. You will work across cloud, on-premises and hybrid environments, with opportunities to assess web applications, APIs, networks, endpoints, identity platforms and physical or social engineering controls where appropriate. You will communicate findings to both technical and non-technical audiences, produce concise reports, brief stakeholders on risk and remediation priorities, and help validate that corrective actions have been implemented effectively.
The successful candidate will have proven experience in red teaming, penetration testing, security assessment or a closely related discipline, with strong practical knowledge of common attack techniques, defensive controls and threat actor behaviour. Experience with Active Directory, cloud security, web technologies, scripting or programming, and tools used for reconnaissance, exploitation and command-and-control is desirable. You should be comfortable working independently, challenging assumptions constructively and managing multiple engagements while maintaining confidentiality and professional integrity. Relevant industry certifications or equivalent hands-on experience are welcome. Excellent written and verbal communication skills are essential, as is the ability to translate technical findings into clear business risk and actionable improvements.
