There’s a lot of noise in cyber consultancy. Bigger promises. Bigger teams. Bigger slide decks. That’s never really been us. CCA was built around a simpler idea: Produce really good work, build strong relationships on trust, provide value for money, and create an environment where talented people can actually grow. We’re looking for Cyber Security Consultants to join us as we continue to scale and grow our delivery team, and innovate our service offerings. We don’t need someone looking for a “safe pair of hands” role where they repeat the same kind of repeat delivery over and again. We’re need someone who wants breadth and depth. Someone who wants to develop real, pan-domain consultancy ability. Someone who enjoys solving client facing problems, improving how things work and is genuinely trusted by clients. What the role actually looks like You’ll work across a wide range of governance, risk and assurance engagements, supporting clients in improving their cyber maturity in ways that are practical and achievable. That could include: • ISO 27001 audit and implementation activity, • NCSC CAF and NIST-CSF v2.0 assessments, • Maturity Assessments and Control Gap Analysis, • Third Party Risk Management (TPRM) implementations, • Cyber Incident Exercise delivery, • Governance, Risk and Compliance advisory work, • Supporting clients with meaningful, embedded activity, not just producing reports Some days will be structured. Others won’t. You’ll need to adapt to different clients, different industry sectors and environments and different challenges. That’s part of consultancy and honestly, part of what makes the role interesting. We’re less concerned about whether your background is purely governance-focused or more technical. You might already be working in GRC. You might be in a technical security role, looking to move into consultancy and advisory work. You might simply be someone who enjoys understanding how organisations operate and figuring out how to help and protect them. What matters most to us is how you think, and how you apply that thinking. The type of person who does well here The people who thrive at CCA tend to be the ones who genuinely care. They care about the quality of their work. They care about client outcomes. They care about improving things rather than just maintaining the status quo. They ask questions. They spot inefficiencies. They challenge constructively. They take ownership. And they’re usually the sort of people who want to keep learning rather than feeling like they’ve already “made it”. You don’t need to know everything. But you do need to be curious, adaptable and willing to get stuck in. Why people join us A lot of consultants reach a point where they feel disconnected from the work they’re delivering. Projects become transactional. Development becomes secondary. Autonomy exists on paper but not in reality. We’ve tried to build something different. At CCA, you’ll have visibility into the business, exposure to a broad range of work and the opportunity to contribute beyond your immediate project list. You’ll work alongside experienced consultants who will support your growth, but you’ll also be trusted to take ownership and develop your own voice and approach over time. We are remote-first and flexible, but we also care deeply about professionalism, accountability and delivery quality. The balance matters. Built to be sustainable We want people to do great work without burning themselves into the ground to prove something. That means flexibility that’s genuinely usable. Support that isn’t performative. Professional development that isn’t squeezed in around the edges of utilisation targets. We invest in our people because we want them to stay, grow and build something meaningful with us over time. About CCA CCA is a specialist cyber consultancy focused on helping organisations strengthen governance, manage risk and improve cyber maturity in ways that fit their environment. We work closely with clients, often over long periods of time, because we believe good consultancy is built on trust, not dependency. We’re also passionate about community and accessibility within the industry. As co-founders of Cyber House Party, we actively support initiatives focused on representation, opportunity and giving back to the wider cyber community. We’re not trying to be the biggest consultancy in the market. We’re focused on building one of the best places to grow a career in cyber. A note on applications We review every application individually without the use of AI, and will respond to all applicants. Please allow us a little time as we work through each one carefully.

SDR Manager Location: South Manchester (4 days per week onsite) Package: Up to c£80,000 base + uncapped bonus About the Business A high-growth cyber services scale-up is investing in its commercial engine and looking for an experienced SDR Manager to lead, improve and scale an established SDR function. The business operates in a high-demand market, sells a mission-critical service, and has a proposition that is built around measurable cyber risk reduction rather than generic software or point solutions. The Opportunity This is an opportunity to inherit a team of 12 SDRs and build a best-in-class SDR function in a scaling technology business. You will be expected to bring the process, structure, coaching rhythm and performance discipline that turn an SDR team into a predictable, measurable and high-converting revenue engine. The role would suit someone already managing an SDR or sales development team, potentially in a smaller environment with limited progression, who is ready for a broader remit, more ownership and the chance to shape how a growing commercial function operates. Key Responsibilities • Lead, coach and develop an established team of 12 SDRs, creating a clear performance culture and consistent operating rhythm., • Implement proven SDR processes across outbound prospecting, qualification, cadence design, lead management, handover and pipeline creation., • Set and manage the right KPIs, including activity quality, meetings booked, qualified opportunities, conversion rates, show rates, pipeline contribution and individual attainment., • Build dashboards, reporting routines and forecasting disciplines that give leadership clear visibility of SDR performance and future pipeline., • Improve SDR capability through call coaching, objection handling, messaging refinement, playbooks, training plans and regular one-to-ones., • Work closely with sales, marketing and senior leadership to improve targeting, campaign execution, lead quality and conversion across the funnel., • Own hiring, onboarding, team growth and succession planning as the business scales., • Manage underperformance professionally and make difficult people decisions where required, while creating a team environment where strong SDRs can progress. Why Work Here? • A genuinely differentiated cyber proposition: this is not a generic software or “point solution” sale. The business helps customers manage cyber risk across technology, people, governance, training and ongoing assurance, giving the SDR team a more strategic and credible reason to engage senior buyers., • A focused market strategy: the company targets higher-risk sectors where cyber security is urgent, visible and commercially important. That means SDRs are not simply creating artificial demand; they are opening conversations around a board-level problem that prospects already recognise., • Strong trust signals in the market: the business has built credibility through recognised security credentials, professional-body relationships and a sector-led go-to-market model, which helps the commercial team compete against larger or more generic providers., • Clear “secret sauce”: the company combines independent cyber risk advice, practical remediation, training, governance and ongoing support. It competes by being more complete, more sector-aware and more business-friendly than traditional technical consultancies or product-led vendors., • A serious platform for an SDR leader: you are not starting from zero. There is already a team of 12 SDRs, a clear growth agenda and senior leadership investment in making the SDR function more structured, measurable and high-performing., • A strong time to join: cyber risk continues to rise, regulation and client scrutiny are increasing, and the business is positioned in markets where trust, assurance and specialist expertise matter. For the right SDR Manager, this is a chance to build the operating model while the company is on the upward curve. The Ideal Candidate • Experienced SDR leader from SaaS, cyber security, technology services or a broader B2B technology environment., • Proven ability to run, improve and scale an SDR operation in a growth or scale-up environment., • Strong understanding of SDR KPIs, coaching, reporting, forecasting, pipeline generation and conversion improvement., • Comfortable bringing structure, process and accountability into a team while keeping people motivated and progressing., • Commercially sharp, data-led and confident partnering with senior sales, marketing and executive stakeholders., • Ambitious, resilient and motivated by the chance to take on a bigger remit in a business with real momentum. Package & Working Pattern • Base salary up to c£80,000., • Uncapped bonus structure., • South Manchester based, with 4 days per week onsite., • Opportunity to lead and scale a 12-person SDR team in a high-growth technology environment.
