Description:

Pentest People are looking for enthusiastic security consultants to join our fast-growing consultancy, based in Leeds. A typical day in the life of a security consultant would involve testing applications/infrastructures and assisting sales with scoping and writing reports. 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.
Bonus points for bringing vulnerable applications or virtual machines that you have created yourself to the interview! Be creative, show us something that you are interested in...
It should be noted that an excellent level of written English is absolutely essential for this role.

Your diary will be constantly changing in a high paced work environment. In non-covid times, infrastructure testers are likely to be travelling regularly around the UK and sometimes abroad. Some travel is also required for application specialists. You will be offered support from all consultants, and you will be expected to do the same once you have experience.
Love talking about the latest vulnerabilities, showing off new tools that you have created, and an endless supply of memes? You will fit in well at Pentest People.
