About Coalfire

 
Coalfire is on a mission to make the world a safer place by solving our clients’ hardest cybersecurity challenges. We work at the cutting edge of technology to advise, assess, automate, and ultimately help companies navigate the ever-changing cybersecurity landscape. We are headquartered in Chicago, Illinois with offices across the U.S. and U.K., and we support clients around the world.
 
But that’s not who we are – that’s just what we do.
 
We are thought leaders, consultants, and cybersecurity experts, but above all else, we are a team of passionate problem-solvers who are hungry to learn, grow, and make a difference.
 
Position Summary
 

As a Consultant you will work as part of a team assessing the security and compliance of client firms against regulatory and industry requirements and standards, and against security best practice frameworks. This role will have a strong understanding of framework requirements, perform audit/assessments, and develop reports for clients. You will work closely with Project Managers, Directors and other Delivery team members to effectively manage project timelines and deliverables.

 

This team focuses on assessments for hyperscale cloud providers, and has a particular expertise in SOC 1, SOC 2, C5, and DSA assessments.  This role will evaluate the design and effectiveness of technology controls throughout the business cycle and will help identify performance improvement opportunities.

 

This position is a remote position that must be located in the United Kingdom (England, Scotland, Wales, and/or Northern Ireland).  Coalfire has an office in Manchester, UK so there is opportunity to work in the office in a hybrid capacity if preferred.
