Cybersecurity Consultant, Zoetermeer

About the role

As a Cybersecurity consultant at Highberg, you play a crucial role in shaping cybersecurity and ICT risk management for our clients. Typically, you engage at a strategic level with executives from large municipalities, banks, and insurers, discussing the setup of IT security within their organizations.

You easily collaborate with managers and ICT specialists at a tactical level. Your focus includes aspects such as securing business processes, raising employee awareness, managing ICT infrastructure and operations, application security, and identity management, from assessment to design. Additionally, you address OT security, both technically and in management terms. As a consultant, you provide advice, oversee implementation, or assess the quality of security setups.

Information security, business continuity management, enterprise risk management, and cyber resilience are part of your daily expertise. You adeptly identify risks in business processes and recommend necessary measures to intervene effectively.
