Who you’ll be working with
A leading global professional services organisation is looking for an experienced Zero Trust Security Architect to join its growing cybersecurity team. This is a Manager-level opportunity where you’ll work with enterprise clients to design and deliver modern Zero Trust security architectures, helping organisations move away from traditional VPN, proxy and perimeter-based security models.
What you’ll be doing

- Developing security blueprints and reference architectures aligned to Zero Trust, NIST 800-207, SASE and SSE principles.
- Working hands-on with technologies such as Zscaler ZIA, ZPA, ZDX and Client Connector.
- Designing secure access solutions using SSO, MFA, device posture and least-privilege principles.
- Integrating Zero Trust platforms with identity providers such as Entra ID, Okta or Ping, alongside SIEM/SOAR and endpoint security platforms.
- Supporting the migration of legacy VPN, proxy and firewall solutions towards modern cloud-native security models.
- Leading proof-of-concepts, technical validation and security architecture assessments.
- Providing architectural governance, threat modelling and security guidance across client projects.
- Working with senior stakeholders to shape Zero Trust strategies and long-term security roadmaps.
- Providing technical leadership and mentoring to security and networking teams.
