Cybersecurity Consultant
About the role
We are looking for a detail-oriented Cybersecurity Consultant who is passionate about identifying vulnerabilities, tackling complex security challenges, and helping organizations defend against real-world cyber threats.
We're a team of 30+ people, with the majority based in the UK and the rest in Croatia. Our team plays a critical role in protecting our clients' digital products against potential threats and vulnerabilities. We're now looking to grow our Croatian team for the first time since joining forces with AMR CyberSecurity, a UK-based company specializing in penetration testing and security consulting.
AMR brings an impressive track record, having worked with organizations like Zoom and ISC2 – often in industries where security failures can have consequences far beyond downtime.
Our team works closely with engineers and system architects to make security an integral part of the software development lifecycle. We work on projects for global clients across industries like finance, hospitality, healthcare, and automotive, testing everything from web and mobile applications to infrastructure, networks, and IoT ecosystems.
Our cybersecurity consultants think like attackers to stay one step ahead. Combining hands-on technical expertise, creative problem-solving, and real-world attack techniques, they utilize a wide range of specialist security tools to uncover vulnerabilities, challenge defenses, and help organizations build resilience against evolving cyber threats
The ideal candidate has a keen eye for detail, up-to-date knowledge of security best practices, and hands-on experience conducting penetration tests as part of client engagements.
Joining our team is an opportunity to learn from experienced security professionals, exchange knowledge across borders, and contribute to a team tackling some genuinely interesting security challenges.
