About the Role
As a TSG Trainee Cyber Security Consultant, you will join our advisory practice on a structured programme designed to develop you into a customer-facing cyber security consultant. Your primary responsibility will be the delivery of our Cyber Controls service, which underpins the security posture of more than 200 TSG customers. Alongside this, and as your capability develops, you will be given the opportunity to contribute to revenue-generating professional services work across our wider advisory portfolio. This is a role for someone at the start of their cyber security career who wants to learn the discipline properly, through real customer delivery rather than theory.
This is initially a 12-month fixed term with a view to going permanent at the end should all of your behavioral, technical, and certification milestones be met.

Ownership at TSG
Every role at TSG comes with our Ownership Ladder. It sets out what ownership means here — from doing your own task well to owning the outcome end-to-end, following the work through every handoff until it lands, and bringing solutions rather than just problems. We include it in every job description because it applies to every person, whatever the role or level. It's the standard we hire to, work to, and back each other on. When you join us, you'll be operating above the ownership line — seeing it, owning it, solving it, and delivering it.
