- Ensure quality, consistency, and technical excellence across all outputs
- Support pre-sales, scoping and client engagement activities
- Manage team utilisation, capacity, and performance

Key Skills & Experince:
- Strong background in penetration testing / security testing (CHECK or equivalent)
- Experience leading or mentoring teams (or ready to step up)

- Strong reporting and stakeholder communication skills
- Experience across web, infrastructure, cloud and application testing
- Understanding of delivery processes, quality assurance and scaling services
This is a great opportunity to step into a role where you can shape a security testing function, not just deliver within one.
