About the Role
We have an exciting opportunity for an experienced Senior Penetration Tester to join our Offensive Security team. In this role, you will lead the delivery of complex penetration testing engagements for organisations ranging from innovative technology companies to large enterprise and public sector clients.
Working alongside some of the industry's most talented offensive security professionals, you will be responsible for identifying real-world security risks, delivering high-quality technical assessments and helping clients strengthen their security posture.
This role is suited to someone who enjoys solving challenging technical problems, engaging directly with clients and contributing to the ongoing development of a high-performing offensive security practice.
If you're the person others turn to for technical guidance, enjoy mentoring junior consultants and want to work in an environment that values technical excellence, continuous learning and innovation, we'd love to hear from you.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Lead the delivery of infrastructure, web application, cloud and internal penetration testing engagements.
- Conduct advanced adversary simulation and security assessments against complex client environments.
- Identify, exploit and clearly articulate security weaknesses, attack paths and business risks.
- Produce high-quality technical reports containing detailed findings, supporting evidence and practical remediation guidance.
- Present findings and recommendations to technical and executive-level stakeholders.
- Provide strategic security advice and consultancy to clients throughout the engagement lifecycle.
- Support and mentor junior consultants, helping to develop technical capability across the team.
- Contribute to the development of offensive security methodologies, research, tooling and service offerings.
- Assist with peer reviews and quality assurance activities to maintain exceptional delivery standards.
- Stay current with emerging attack techniques, vulnerabilities and offensive security trends.
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.
