Senior Recruitment Consultant - Cybersecurity
Hybrid/Remote - 1 day per week meet-up in Sussex
£35,000 - £55,000 Base + Market-Leading Commission
Equity / Profit Share Available
This is an incredible opportunity for an experienced 360 recruiter who wants more autonomy, higher value work and the chance to build something with genuine long term upside.
You'd work alongside a Director who has generated £400K in one year from a cold start - a true recruitment pro!
The Market
You'll have the option to either build further into established specialist areas such as:
Digital Forensics Incident Response
Penetration Testing
Security Architecture
eDiscovery
Cybersecurity Consulting
Specialist technical security roles
Or develop adjacent areas of the cybersecurity market, including:
Go-To-Market
Sales and Commercial Leadership
Customer Success
Partnerships and Alliances
Cybersecurity SaaS
VC / PE-backed startups and scaleups
High-growth security vendors
That gives you a lot more freedom than joining a desk where the market is already completely defined for you.
You can lean into existing relationships and technical expertise, or build a new vertical around the areas of cyber you know best.
Why This Desk Is Interesting
Cybersecurity remains one of the most commercially attractive areas of technology recruitment.
The business works with specialist cybersecurity services firms, product vendors and end clients, with a particularly robust presence in the US.
The Opportunity
You'll take ownership of both business development and delivery, working alongside an experienced recruiter with four years of operating independently and more than 12 years of running his own business unit.
You'll be able to:
Build your own client base
Develop an existing or adjacent cyber specialism
Win retained and exclusive search assignments
Manage senior client relationships
Work with high-growth cybersecurity businesses internationally




Headhunt specialist technical and commercial talent
Support embedded hiring and team-build projects
Shape your desk around the part of the market you find most commercially attractive
For someone coming from technology recruitment, there's plenty of scope to transfer an existing network into cyber rather than having to start completely from scratch.
