Job Description & Summary
About the role
Join our growing Cyber Risk Advisory team as a Senior Manager specialising in the Consumer Markets sector that includes some of the largest and best-known Retail, Consumer, Manufacturing, Logistics, Transport and Hospitality organisations. In this role, you will strengthen client relationships, lead cyber engagements, and deliver practical, business-aligned solutions to build your portfolio of clients and contribute to continued growth via delivery excellence.
You will work closely with senior stakeholders to help them navigate evolving cyber threats, regulatory expectations, and the unique challenges facing Consumer Markets — including complex supply chains, distributed operations across global markets, e-commerce risk, customer data protection, and cloud-based digital platforms.
This is an exciting opportunity for a versatile cyber professional who excels in client delivery, team leadership, and market development.
What your days will look like:
- Build trusted senior client relationships across Consumer, Commercial, and Retail sectors
- Lead end-to-end cyber engagements including assessments, roadmaps, and transformation programmes
- Advise on key areas such as cyber risk, incident readiness, third-party risk, cloud security, and resilience
- Support business development, RFP responses, and growth of sector offerings
- Provide practical insight on retail and commercial technologies and associated cyber risks
- Apply industry frameworks (ISO 27001, NIST CSF, CIS Controls, GDPR)
- Lead, mentor, and assure delivery quality across multidisciplinary teams
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.
