Role summary

We are looking for a talented and enthusiastic individual with excellent technical and client-facing skills, to act a solution architect and technical delivery lead for national scale cyber defence solutions.  This ranges from strategic architecture design for national cyber authorities through to small enterprise CERTs/SOCs and Managed Security Services' SOCs. This role is situated within our Government business and is internationally focused thus extensive travel for several weeks or sometimes months will be involved from time to time.

  • You will be responsible for implementing solutions across people, process and technology with top-tier Government clients.
  • You will engage with the customer to understand their requirements and design cyber security solutions to meet their needs throughout the design - delivery lifecycle. On client site you will direct a team (and contribute hands-on) to install, configure and integrate the solution with the client's systems (building client-specific extensions as required), before testing to assure the quality of the deliverable and finally handing-over the solution to the customer.
  • You will help grow and evolve our delivery capability by documenting the delivery processes, feeding back lessons learned and working with the wider team in establishing best practices and repeatable processes.  You will feed back requirements that you have captured during the project continually to product management teams to help to steer the business' product roadmap.
  • You will work with sales executives, technical project managers, engineers, solution architects, as well as the end-customer. Given the international client delivery focus of this role, flexibility in our designs and delivery methodologies is essential to ensure timely delivery to the customer’s satisfaction. You will travel internationally to work on-site across our global client-base.
  • You will develop an in-depth technical understanding of our Cyber Security product suite, and will build excellent relationships with our customers, such that they see you as the SME and their primary point-of-contact for technical matters.

What we’re looking for

Essential: 

  • Excellent verbal and written communication and client-facing skills, including Microsoft Office suite use (Word/Excel/PowerPoint/Visio), ensuring a clear and professional quality of written materials.
  • Time management and organizational skills to independently manage multiple delivery projects concurrently.

  • Experience in building and delivering Cyber Security solutions, integrating systems and developing the associated processes and procedures, and an understanding of the cyber security threat landscape.
  • Awareness of Cyber Security product landscape.
  • ITIL, and authoring/directing the development and implementation of Service Management systems.
  • Thought leadership at senior levels in designing and setting strategy for advanced cyber defence detection systems.
  • Previous experience working in a Security Operating Centre including a background in SOC design and/or operation.
