JOB DESCRIPTION

Connect to your Industry

Cyber security is critical to every organisation. We are shaping strategies and transforming the management of cyber risk, and we need you to join us. You’ll build strong relationships as one of the areas of our cyber practice with over 450 extremely talented individuals in the UK alone, as part of a Technology and Transformation practice of 7500 people. Cyber security is a business problem, not just a technical problem, and we need people with a diverse array of backgrounds and skills sets to help our clients solve it. Join us and you will help our clients solve the latest cyber security challenges, in a business with very significant growth ambitions enjoying the kind of professional development that will set your potential free.

Connect to your career at Deloitte

Deloitte drives progress. Using our vast range of expertise, we help our clients' become leaders wherever they choose to compete. To do this, we invest in outstanding people. We build teams of future thinkers, with diverse talents and backgrounds, and empower them all to reach for and achieve more.

Whatever we do, wherever we are in the world, we lead the way, serve with integrity, take care of each other, foster inclusion, and collaborate for measurable impact. These five shared values lead every decision we make and action we take, guiding us to deliver impact how and where it matters most.

Connect to your opportunity

We are seeking experienced Data Security professionals with expertise in both architecture and engineering. The ideal candidate will have a proven track record in leading designing, implementing, and testing data security solutions. Responsibilities include developing security architectures, creating technical design documents, and establishing control frameworks for data protection across cloud and on-premises environments. Experience in maintaining and operating data security technologies is also highly valued, as is the ability to assess and enhance existing data security architectures to meet evolving business and regulatory requirements.

You will influence our macro approach and set the direction for how we meet our clients’ demands. Our projects vary greatly, and your responsibility will differ based on the focus of a specific client engagement or proposal, but your role is likely to include:

  • Define data security use cases, functional and non-functional solution requirements, and technical specifications e.g., data discovery, data access governance, data classification, data loss prevention, encryption, data masking, monitoring, and compliance requirements. As part of this, defining next gen use cases covering data security posture management and AI use cases.

  • Design and architect data security solutions by creating high-level and low-level designs that align with business objectives and comply with industry cybersecurity standards (e.g., NIST, ISO 27001). For example, this includes:

    • Creating high-level and low-level system architecture diagrams with technical descriptions of each component.

    • Defining the dependencies to implement the solution, e.g., network rules, server resources, storage requirements.

    • Defining the system specifications to support optimal performance.

    • Integrate workflows with third-party systems and security tools, such as Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) solutions, data discovery and classification tools (e.g., Varonis, BigID), and cloud platforms like Microsoft Azure.

    • Define the Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, and Informed (RACI) matrix to operate and maintain the solution’s infrastructure components.

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.
