Job Description & Summary

At PwC, our people in cybersecurity focus on protecting organisations from cyber threats through advanced technologies and strategies.

They work to identify vulnerabilities, develop secure systems, and provide proactive solutions to safeguard sensitive data.

Those in penetration testing at PwC will focus on penetration testing (or pen testing) which is a security exercise where a cybersecurity consultant attempts to find and exploit vulnerabilities in a computer system.

Navigating increasingly complex situations, you are growing your personal brand, deepening technical expertise and awareness of your strengths.

  • Experience leading security engagements and mentoring junior team members
  • Additional Qualifications (Nice to Have):
