Description
Role Purpose
As a Managing Consultant within the Red Teaming practice, you’ll take a leading role in delivering high-end adversary simulation engagements for clients with mature security postures and critical risk profiles. You'll operate across the entire attack lifecycle—from initial access and evasion of EDR, through lateral movement and objective completion—while ensuring the safety, confidentiality, and operational integrity of every engagement.
You’ll also contribute to our capability development, tooling, and methodologies, while mentoring the next generation of Red Teamers and representing NCC Group in client-facing engagements, including with C-level stakeholders.
This role is central to advancing NCC Group’s offensive security capability while helping our clients understand, detect, and respond to sophisticated threats in real-world scenarios.
Key Accountabilities
You’ll lead the design, planning, and execution of Red Team and adversary simulation engagements across critical sectors such as financial services, government, and defence. These operations will align with frameworks such as CBEST, TIBER, CORIE, and more. You’ll also build strong stakeholder relationships, lead debriefs with both technical and executive audiences, and translate complex attack paths into clear, actionable insight.
Over the next 12–24 months, you'll establish yourself as a senior authority in the Red Teaming space, contribute to tooling and methodology development, mentor rising talent, and play an active role in growing our capability in both regulated and bespoke assessments.
