Job description

Manchester HQ Hybrid (1-2 days per week in office).

Excellent Training, Certifications & Career Progression.

Areti are delighted to be supporting a rapidly expanding technology business in their search for a Cyber Security Solutions Consultant to join their high-performing UK team, based from their Manchester headquarters.

This award-winning organisation partners with global enterprises to deliver cutting-edge cybersecurity and digital infrastructure solutions, helping clients build secure, resilient environments that enable transformation and growth. Following sustained success across the UK & Europe, they are now seeking an experienced Cyber Security professional to play a key role in shaping and delivering security strategies for enterprise customers.

The Role

As a Solutions Consultant, you’ll act as a trusted advisor to enterprise clients, understanding their security posture, identifying risks, and designing solutions that strengthen their cyber resilience. You’ll work closely with both technical and commercial teams, translating complex security requirements into clear, actionable solutions that align with customer goals.

This is not a proactive sales role. Your focus will be on understanding customer needs, building trust, and delivering the right security outcomes.

Candidates coming from an end-user environment would be ideal.

Key Responsibilities

  • Define and deliver the technical strategy for key enterprise customers.
  • Lead security solution design, demonstrations, and workshops.
  • Manage Proofs of Concept (POCs) and technical evaluations.
  • Support RFP responses, solution proposals, and architecture documentation.
  • Stay current with emerging cybersecurity technologies and trends, contributing to thought leadership and best practice.

About You

You’re a technically strong Cyber Security professional who thrives in customer-facing roles and enjoys engaging with people as much as solving complex technical challenges.

We’re particularly open to candidates who have worked as Cyber Security Architects and are now looking for a more consultative, client-facing role.

Ideal Background

  • Proven experience in cyber security design, architecture, or consultancy.
  • Hands-on expertise across domains such as SIEM, SOAR, EDR, Vulnerability Management, WAF, IDAM, and Cloud Security.
  • Strong understanding of vendor technologies (e.g., Fortinet, Palo Alto, Juniper).
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills - able to translate complex technical concepts into business value.

Requirements

  • UK driving licence (occasional travel to customer sites).
  • Ability to attend the Manchester HQ 1-2 days per week - flexibility required to visit the office whenever needed.

Why Apply?

You’ll join a collaborative, ambitious team where innovation, development, and professional growth are actively supported. The company invests heavily in training and certifications, ensuring you stay at the forefront of cybersecurity technology.

This is a fantastic opportunity to work with leading security solutions, influence enterprise-level strategy, and make a tangible impact within a fast-growing business.

We’re on a mission to put people and the planet before profit - helping to build a better, more sustainable tech future.
