Who you’ll be joining
We’re problem solvers at heart. Sometimes the answer is technology, sometimes it is strategy, and sometimes it is a strong cup of tea and a bit of thoughtful conversation. Whatever it takes, we work it out with our clients.
We’re an IT consultancy that helps organisations get the best out of their technology. That means keeping them secure and keeping the bad guys out, making sure everything works and is easy to use, and doing smart things with data and software to give their business an edge. It is important work, and we care about doing it well and for the right reasons.
Life at Waterstons is friendly, flexible and built on trust. We hire people who are curious, thoughtful and good at getting to the heart of a problem. You get support, trust and room to grow in a place that still feels human. The unlimited holidays and private healthcare are a nice touch, although most people stay because it feels like the right place to do good work with good people.
What You’ll Be Doing
We’re looking for an experienced Information Security professional with a strong focus on GRC. As a Senior Information Security Consultant, you'll have a good understanding of data protection and experience in DPO roles. This position does not require line management, but you should be willing to take on such responsibilities in our growing Cyber division.

It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
