Senior Security Architect | Cloud & Technical Security Consulting
£70,000 base + up to 10% bonus + benefits
Remote-first UK | Genuine flexibility | Varied client engagements
Bring your technical experience into a role where you can shape the solution and see it through.
You enjoy understanding how systems work, identifying where they’re exposed and designing security that makes sense for the organisation using it.
You want work that stretches your thinking, the autonomy to apply your judgement and knowledgeable colleagues to exchange ideas with.
We’re partnering with a growing UK cyber security consultancy to appoint a Senior Security Architect to its technical consulting team.
This opportunity combines security architecture, cloud security and practical technical consulting, helping clients embed security from initial design through to implementation.
You may already be a Security Architect or Technical Security Consultant. Equally, you could be a Security Engineer with strong design experience, ready to bring your expertise into a broader client-facing role.
Why consider a move?
- Variety that develops your expertise. Work across different client environments, technologies and security challenges, applying your strengths while building new capabilities.
- Ownership of meaningful work. Understand the problem, shape the design and help clients put your recommendations into practice.
- A genuinely flexible culture. Remote-first working, with occasional travel to client sites and company offices.
- Experienced people around you. Collaborate with technical consultants, engineers and security operations specialists who share knowledge and support one another.
- The opportunity to contribute. Bring ideas to the team, improve delivery approaches and help develop the consultancy’s architecture services.
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.
