Senior Cyber Security Specialist – OT – Birmingham

Shape the Future of OT Security Across Global Operations

Permanent Role: Salary to be discussed

This is a rare opportunity to step into what will become the first dedicated OT Security capability role in the UK, giving you the chance to truly shape how operational technology security is delivered across international sites.

If you’re looking for a role where you can move away from rigid structures and have real influence over strategy, technology choices, and security maturity, this could be the perfect next step in your career.

You will be joining at a pivotal time, helping build and mature OT cybersecurity capability from the ground up while still staying deeply hands-on technically.

With 20-30% international travel, you’ll also have the opportunity to work closely with global teams, shaping security standards across multiple manufacturing and operational environments.

Why This Role Is Different

This isn’t a heavily structured, process-driven OT security environment.

Instead, you’ll have:

  • Freedom to help define OT security strategy
  • Opportunity to influence technology selection and architecture
  • Exposure to global operational security transformation programmes
  • The chance to build long-term security capability rather than just maintain it

You will:

  • Help build and define OT cybersecurity strategy across international operations
  • Design secure architectures for industrial and manufacturing environments
  • Work closely with engineering and operational teams to ensure security supports safety and uptime
  • Drive adoption of modern security controls across legacy and emerging OT systems
  • Lead hands-on security improvements across networks, systems, and industrial platforms
  • Support global security initiatives while delivering practical local solutions
  • Help mature incident response, vulnerability management, and threat detection capabilities

You should have:

  • Strong practical experience in cybersecurity
  • Exposure to OT, ICS, or industrial environments
