We are seeking a Senior Penetration Tester to lead and deliver high-quality security assessments across applications, infrastructure, cloud environments, networks and emerging technologies. You will plan and execute penetration tests, vulnerability assessments and red-team engagements, using a risk-based approach to identify weaknesses that could affect confidentiality, integrity or availability. The role will involve scoping engagements, defining test methodologies, reviewing technical documentation, conducting reconnaissance and exploitation activities, and validating remediation efforts. You will also be expected to maintain accurate evidence, assess business impact and communicate findings clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

As a senior member of the security testing function, you will provide technical leadership and contribute to the development of testing standards, tools, playbooks and repeatable processes. Responsibilities will include producing detailed, accurate reports with practical remediation guidance; presenting findings to senior stakeholders; supporting incident investigations where required; mentoring junior testers; and keeping current with changes in attack techniques, defensive controls, cloud platforms and industry best practice. You may also contribute to security architecture reviews, threat modelling, secure development initiatives and the continuous improvement of assessment capabilities.

Applicants should have substantial professional experience in penetration testing, offensive security or a closely related discipline, together with strong knowledge of common vulnerabilities, exploitation techniques and security testing methodologies. Experience with web applications, APIs, networks, Active Directory, mobile platforms, cloud services and scripting languages such as Python, PowerShell or Bash is highly desirable. Relevant professional certifications, such as OSCP, CREST, GPEN, GXPN or equivalent, would be advantageous. You should demonstrate sound judgement, excellent written and verbal communication skills, strong attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple engagements while maintaining high technical and ethical standards.
