About the Role

Director, Cyber Security Consulting

The Opportunity

Ready to step into a role where your name is on the door, not buried in an org chart? This is a Director-level position with genuine weight behind it - the kind of opportunity to shape a cyber security practice, own client relationships, and make decisions that matter. If you're a senior consultant who's been doing the work but not getting the platform, this is worth reading.

The Role

You'll lead complex cyber security consulting engagements across Germany, working with clients across sectors on strategy, risk, architecture, and programme delivery. At Director level, that means driving business development as much as delivery - building relationships, identifying opportunities, and bringing in the mandates as well as executing them.

You'll be a visible figure in the market, representing the practice externally and mentoring the consultants around you internally. Expect variety: no two clients are the same, and the work spans the full spectrum of cyber security advisory.

The Company

Our client is a specialist consulting business with a strong footprint in the German market. They're known for the quality of their advisory work and the calibre of the people they hire. This is not a firm where Directors spend their time managing PowerPoint. The environment is fast-moving, collegial, and built around people who are genuinely expert in what they do.

What You'll Need

  • Significant experience in cyber security consulting, with a track record at senior level
  • Proven ability to develop and convert business development opportunities
  • Deep fluency in the German market and the cyber security landscape within it
  • Native or near-native German, with strong English alongside
  • Credibility with C-suite stakeholders and the confidence to lead from the front

How to Apply

Send your CV to the MAM Gruppe team. It doesn't need to be up to date - send what you have, or just get in touch for a conversation.

The Opportunity This is a newly created Director-level position within the Risk function of one of Europe's leading international banks. You'll be joining at the point where the function is being built, not inherited, which means you'll have genuine influence over how ICT risk and security reporting is structured, governed, and matured from the ground up.
