Job Description


Vulnerability Engineer (Find & Fix) | £40,000 - £45,000

We're working with a leading security-focused consultancy dedicated to safeguarding complex client environments on this exciting opportunity.

In this hands-on Cyber Security role, you will lead the charge in identifying, analyzing, and remediating high-risk vulnerabilities using industry-leading tools like Qualys and Nessus. This is a rare opportunity to join a mission-critical function where your expertise in Windows, Linux, and Cloud security (AWS/Azure) directly strengthens the resilience of national infrastructure.

The Role

  • Lead comprehensive vulnerability assessments and automated scanning across diverse client environments and internal systems.
  • Act as a technical bridge between security and engineering teams to drive the rapid remediation of risks based on CVSS scoring and business impact.
  • Analyze complex outputs from penetration testing reports and vulnerability scans (Rapid7, Nessus, Qualys) to provide actionable security insights.
  • Design and maintain robust security documentation and remediation workflows to ensure continuous compliance with standards like GDPR and NIST.
  • Stay at the forefront of the threat landscape, researching emerging 0-day vulnerabilities and implementing proactive defense strategies.

What You'll Need

  • Deep hands-on experience in Vulnerability Management (VM) using enterprise tools such as Qualys, Nessus, or Rapid7 InsightVM.
  • Strong technical proficiency across Windows and Linux operating systems, with a solid grasp of Cloud security principles (AWS or Azure).
  • Proven ability to interpret penetration testing results and translate technical vulnerabilities into risk-based remediation plans.
  • Active SC Clearance (or full eligibility to undergo UK Security Clearing) is essential for this position.
  • Excellent communication skills to influence engineering teams and stakeholders on security best practices and compliance requirements.

What's On Offer

  • Salary up to £45,000 DOE with a clear path for technical career progression.
  • Exceptional work-life balance with 100% remote working and very occasional client travel.
  • Generous holiday package with up to 31 days annual leave plus expenses paid for site visits.
  • The chance to work in a high-impact security team protecting sensitive environments from sophisticated cyber threats.
