Senior Penetration Tester - CTM
We are seeking a Senior Penetration Tester to lead and deliver sophisticated security assessments across applications, infrastructure, cloud environments, networks and emerging technologies. You will be responsible for planning, scoping and executing penetration tests, red-team exercises and vulnerability assessments, identifying weaknesses that could be exploited by real-world attackers, and clearly communicating the associated business risks. The role will involve working with technical and non-technical stakeholders to validate findings, provide practical remediation guidance and support improvements to overall security resilience.
Key responsibilities include developing test plans and rules of engagement; conducting manual and automated testing; exploiting vulnerabilities safely and responsibly; reviewing source code, configurations and architecture where appropriate; and producing accurate, evidence-based technical reports. You will present findings to customers and internal stakeholders, contribute to remediation and retesting activities, and help refine testing methodologies, tools and standards. You may also support security consultancy engagements, mentor less experienced testers and contribute to the development of reusable scripts, playbooks and knowledge resources. Maintaining awareness of current attack techniques, vulnerability trends and relevant regulatory or industry requirements will be an important part of the role.
Applicants should have substantial professional experience in penetration testing, offensive security or a closely related discipline, with a strong understanding of common vulnerabilities, exploitation techniques and secure architectures. Practical experience across web applications, APIs, internal and external networks, Active Directory, cloud platforms and mobile technologies is highly desirable. Relevant certifications such as OSCP, CREST, CRT, CCT, GXPN or equivalent experience are advantageous. You should be confident using scripting or programming languages such as Python, PowerShell, Bash or JavaScript, and comfortable working independently while collaborating effectively with others. Strong written and verbal communication skills, sound judgement, attention to detail and a methodical approach to handling sensitive information are essential.
