📍 Remote – UK
💼 Permanent | Full-Time

We’re recruiting for an experienced Penetration Tester / Offensive Security Consultant to join a growing cyber security business delivering accredited penetration testing services to organisations across the UK.

This is a hands-on technical role for someone with strong experience across application and infrastructure penetration testing, who can identify vulnerabilities, clearly communicate risk and provide practical remediation advice.

You’ll be responsible for delivering penetration testing engagements across a range of technologies and environments, working directly with clients from initial scoping through to final reporting.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Conducting comprehensive application and infrastructure penetration testing
  • Performing vulnerability assessments and recommending remediation actions
  • Producing clear technical and non-technical client reports
  • Supporting client scoping and pre-engagement activities
  • Managing penetration testing engagements within agreed deadlines
  • Supporting quality assurance to maintain a high standard of client delivery

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.
