Step into this Red Team Analyst role and build something that matters in Cybersecurity.
Breaches don't announce themselves.
They sit quietly in a network until someone finds them, and that's the gap this role exists to close.
This enterprise business has built its security function over years, not months, and it needs a Red Team Analyst who can think like an attacker without becoming one.
The work is structured, the frameworks are established, and the targets are real production environments that matter.
Here's what you'll be doing: Plan and execute red team engagements against live infrastructure, applications and networks Simulate real-world attacker techniques to test detection and response capability Write clear, evidence-based reports that translate technical findings into business risk Work alongside blue team colleagues to improve defensive posture after each exercise Develop custom tooling and scripts to support engagement objectives Stay current on emerging threat actor tactics, techniques and procedures Here are the skills you'll need: Solid hands-on experience with penetration testing or red team operations Familiarity with MITRE ATT&CK and common offensive security frameworks Scripting ability in Python, PowerShell or similar Confidence explaining technical risk to non-technical stakeholders A methodical approach.
Red teaming rewards patience as much as skill Relevant certification (OSCP, CRTP or equivalent) is a strong plus Key perks and benefits: Salary of £41,500 to £59,000, depending on experience Fully remote working, with occasional travel for engagement-specific access Private medical and dental insurance Enhanced pension scheme and performance-based bonuses Structured career development within an established industry leader Why pursue a career in Cybersecurity?
Demand for red team skills keeps climbing as attackers get faster and businesses hold more to lose.
Liverpool has a growing cluster of cybersecurity employers, and a Red Team Analyst based there isn't short of serious work or serious colleagues.
Few fields reward sharp thinking and curiosity quite as directly as this one does.
