The Role
This senior-level position leads complex digital forensics and incident response engagements, handling high-stakes cases ranging from financially motivated breaches to state-affiliated espionage.

Skills & Experience
Deep expertise in incident response and digital forensics is essential, with the ability to handle volatile, complex casework and produce findings that meet court-admissible standards. Candidates must demonstrate mastery of relevant investigative technologies and methodologies, with experience across a broad spectrum of threat actor types and attack motivations.
Who It Suits
This role suits a highly experienced forensic investigator who thrives under pressure, operates with precision in fast-moving situations, and has the technical depth to tackle the most demanding casework independently.
