The Safe AI Vulnerability Manager

The Safe AI Vulnerability Manager is responsible for activities within the VMO2 Attack Surface Reduction Process. The purpose of the process is to ensure security issues in the organisation are identified, understood and reduced, so that security exposure is minimised and risk is proactively managed. Working as part of the Attack Surface Reduction Team, the purpose of the role is to ensure all opportunities to reduce the attack surface are closed within a timely manner, and security risk is known and ultimately reduced.

Safe AI is the initiative within VMO2 to protect the business from the threats associated with the use and propagation of AI, whilst allowing the business to continue with unlocking value from its use.

The Safe AI Vulnerability Manager will have a focus on vulnerabilities and weaknesses which create exposure to AI related threats.

The role involves running, improving the processes, and governing remediation through close partnership working with stakeholders and systems owners around the business and reporting to senior stakeholders on a regular basis.

Who we are

At Virgin Media O₂, we connect people to the moments that matter most. Virgin Media leads the UK for broadband reliability, speed and overall performance, while O₂ keeps people connected on the move with award-winning coverage.

We’re also proud to be named one of the Financial Times Top 500 Best Employers for 2026, based on one of the UK’s largest employee satisfaction surveys.

Join us and you’ll be part of a team that stays curious, positive and focused on making life easier for our customers and each other. We’re investing in the future of connectivity, from expanding next-generation 5G to exploring satellite-supported solutions that help reach rural communities and hard-to-connect places.

You’ll work with people who back good ideas and give you plenty of room to grow. So if you’re looking for a place where you can feel supported, trusted and genuinely valued, you’ll feel right at home here.

Our ways of working

We’re a flexible-first organisation, because we know people do their best work when they have choice and clarity. To support meaningful collaboration, we ask everyone to spend at least eight days a month connecting with each other in person.

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.
