About the Role ⭐

Are you an experienced MSP engineer with a passion for cyber security?

Do you enjoy helping businesses strengthen their security posture, investigating threats, implementing modern security solutions and providing trusted advice to customers?

At DISConsulting IT, we're looking for a Cyber Security Engineer to become a key part of our growing cyber security offering. This is an exciting opportunity to take ownership of security services within a growing MSP, working closely with customers and the wider technical team to improve security, resilience and compliance.

This isn't a role where you'll spend every day buried in alerts and reports. You'll work directly with customers, shape security strategies, lead Cyber Essentials initiatives, manage modern security platforms and influence how our managed security services evolve.

As part of a small and ambitious team, you'll have the opportunity to make a genuine impact, take ownership of key security initiatives and help shape the future direction of cyber security services at DISConsulting IT.

What You’ll Do ⚡

  • Monitor, investigate and respond to security incidents across customer environments
  • Manage and continually improve our managed cyber security services
  • Lead customer security reviews and provide practical security recommendations
  • Drive Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus readiness projects
  • Develop security standards, policies and best practices
  • Manage and optimise security platforms including; Huntress EDR, Huntress SIEM, Huntress ITDR, DNSFilter, CyberFOX AutoElevate and EasyDMARC
  • Lead vulnerability management and remediation programmes
  • Conduct security assessments and penetration testing activities
  • Research emerging threats and recommend improvements to customer security controls
  • Work closely with the Service Desk team on escalations and security incidents
  • Contribute to the ongoing development of our Ultimate Security service
  • Represent DISConsulting IT at vendor events, roadshows and cyber security workshops
  • Help shape the strategic direction of security services across the business

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
