## About the Role

* Real depth in cyber security presales or technical consultancy specifically, ideally within an MSP or managed security services environment
 * The confidence to be the most technically credible person in the room on security, not a generalist who also covers security
 * Direct, hands-on experience scoping and presenting SOC services, penetration testing and vulnerability scanning as part of customer solutions
 * Strong command of Microsoft 365 (including Defender), MDR/EDR and firewall technologies
 * Working exposure to Cloudflare One and to compliance and certification frameworks, including Cyber Essentials/CE+, as a baseline expectation rather than a bonus
 * Skilled at translating risk and technical detail for a business owner who isn't security-literate, without losing substance for a technical stakeholder
 * A history of writing commercial proposals that hold up to scrutiny on design and pricing, ideally including RFPs where security was the deciding factor

Nice to have: relevant Microsoft accreditations, CompTIA Security+, CISSP or CISM.
