Job Description
Independent Cybersecurity Consultant
Location: Noida (NCR) – Hybrid Engagement: Contract / Consulting
We are seeking a senior, hands-on Cybersecurity Consultant for a strategic engagement with our client.
This is not a routine audit or BAU security role. The consultant will assess the current environment, challenge existing controls, design a pragmatic Zero Trust security architecture, and help establish an institutional-grade security programme.
Client has recently completed a management-led internal security review and is executing an active remediation program. To build on this foundation, Client requires an independent senior practitioner to pressure-test the current state, validate and strengthen the strategic direction, and deliver a robust security architecture, process framework, and operating rhythm.
This is a hands-on advisory role reporting directly to senior leadership (CEO-1). It is not a checkbox audit and not a tool-selling exercise. Specific findings and internal materials will be shared following NDA execution.
