Offensive Security Consultant

Company Description:

At Quorum Cyber, we're on a mission to help good people win. Founded in Edinburgh in 2016, we're one of the fastest growing cyber security companies in the UK and North America, serving over 400 customers on four continents.

We protect organisations against the rising threat of cyber-attacks, enabling them to thrive in an increasingly unpredictable and inhospitable digital landscape.

As a Microsoft-only security house, a Microsoft Solutions Partner for Security, a member of the Microsoft Intelligent Security Association (MISA), and winner of the Microsoft Security MSSP of the Year 2025 award, we offer a unified security ecosystem comprised of innovative services, all delivered through our customer platform, Clarity.

In September 2024, Quorum Cyber acquired Canada-based, Microsoft Solutions Partner for Security, Difenda. This was closely followed in December 2024 by the acquisition of US-based, Kivu Consulting, a global cyber security firm with world-leading incident response capabilities.
