Description:

Pentest People are looking for enthusiastic security consultants to join our fast-growing consultancy, based in Leeds.

We are looking to speak to security consultants, cybersecurity graduates or those with relevant work experience.

Pentest People cover a wide range of services from applications (web, mobile, API), infrastructure, social engineering (phishing, vishing, physical intrusion) and cloud testing. We offer consultants the opportunity to test over all areas but typically specialise in one.
