Opportunities in Cyber Security and Risk
Purpose-Driven Roles Across Cyber Security and Risk
MCS Group supports organisations building real cyber security capability and helps people move into roles where they can design, govern and protect systems at scale, including senior compliance jobs and mature GRC jobs. We provide clear insight into maturity, control gaps, ownership and delivery expectations, so both sides understand what it takes to build effective, resilient security environments.
Security engineering depends on teams that can turn strategy into systems that actually hold up under pressure. We connect organisations with specialists who strengthen core architecture, close control gaps, and build secure foundations that scale. With clarity around maturity, tooling, and ownership, work moves from design intent to dependable protection that performs in real environments.
Effective detection and response rely on analysts who can cut through noise and act decisively. We support organisations seeking specialists who elevate signal quality, refine escalation paths, and keep visibility intact under pressure. With clear insight into tooling, response depth, and data workflows, teams move from alert overload to structured, meaningful defensive outcomes.
Offensive security depends on testers who turn exploration into real security hardening. We introduce organisations to specialists who deliver meaningful findings, validate assumptions, and guide remediation with precision. With clarity around access, scope, and engineering alignment, work moves from isolated assessments to measurable improvements that strengthen long-term security posture.
Cloud and identity security depend on specialists who can turn architecture into secure, seamless access at scale. We match organisations with engineers who strengthen configuration, refine identity models, and support resilient cloud operations. With insight into platform maturity, permission design, and long-term plans, work moves from conceptual strategy to dependable, secure delivery
Supporting Teams That Test What Actually Matters
Strong offensive security capability is measured by what testing actually reveals, not by reports or tools alone. Penetration tester jobs, ethical hacker jobs and red team operator jobs may look similar on paper, but the real difference shows in how specialists think, test and adapt when assumptions break.
What Does Effective Testing Look Like?
Offensive security work lives in scope, access and judgement. We focus on how testers explore environments, validate impact and communicate findings that engineering teams can act on.
Learn MoreAre Your Tests Finding What Matters?
Effective offensive security is not about volume. It is about relevance.
- Penetration testers who uncover real attack paths, not just known issues
- Ethical hackers who align findings to business risk
- Red team operators who simulate realistic adversary behaviour
We connect organisations with specialists whose work leads to practical remediation, not shelfware reports.
Meet Our ConsultantsHiring Without Slowing Delivery?
Offensive security hiring often happens alongside audits, incidents or upcoming releases. We keep the process focused and efficient, with clear communication and realistic expectations, helping teams move quickly without compromising quality.
Meet the TeamDoes Your Testing Match Your Risk?
Every organisation presents a different challenge. Some need depth in application testing, others require adversary simulation or senior testing leadership. Whether you are looking to hire an ethical hacker, bring in a red team operator or expand senior penetration tester jobs, we shape recruitment around your environment.
