Your new company
You will be joining an award winning, global and prestigious Law Firm based out of America. This company has over 30,000 end users and is currently financing a migration from all legacy systems to the cloud. Your new employer deals with cutting edge technologies in a world that needs new and improved cyber protection, adhering to the ISO27001 framework. The company has been expanding rapidly in recent years and their tech team has grown and improved with it, with a team of almost 50 employed in their Belfast security team alone.

Your new role
You will be responsible for identifying and assessing potential security risks in a computer system, network, or application. This involves conducting thorough testing and analysis to identify any vulnerabilities that could be exploited by cyber attackers. You will work with the relevant stakeholders to develop and implement strategies to mitigate these risks and improve the overall security posture of the system. In addition to technical skills, you must have strong analytical and communication skills to effectively communicate findings and recommendations to non-technical stakeholders.

What you'll need to succeed
To succeed in this role, you will be skilled in primarily Web Application Penetration Testing, be familiar with the likes of OWASP and NIST, and have experience across systems such as WireShark, Burpsuite and Nessus. A Crest accreditation would be highly beneficial for this role, and candidates who have experience in Network/Cloud/Mobile Penetration testing will also be looked on favourably. You will have an extensive background in Red-Teaming Cyber Security, and will understand the demand of Penetration testing in an enterprise environment.

What you'll get in return
This company offers several benefits on top of a suitable salary and generous holiday package. You will be the recipient of a private healthcare scheme and life assurance policy. You will also be receiving other insurance policies (dental etc) as well as an employee stocks program. The company also offers a vastly diverse workplace and operates a rigourous mental wellbeing structure to ensure wellness for all employees
