[Hiring] Offensive Security Manager (Hive Leader) @CovertSwarm

Role Description

We are looking for an Offensive Security Team Leader (Hive Leader) to take our offensive operations to the next level. If you are an ambitious Red Team leader itching to change the industry, this is your call to arms.

Your mission: Lead a red team revolution. This is a leadership role with a rebellious twist. As Hive Leader for the UK/European region, you are not just managing a team – you are leading a movement to disrupt the traditional offensive security industry. Your mission is to scale our Red Team from hyper-growth to industry domination.

• Scale an elite team – Build and inspire an ever-growing Hive of world-class ethical hackers. Recruit top talent, mentor them into leaders and expand our UK Red Team from a fast-growing squad to an unrivalled force.
• Own the attack strategy – Define and execute the offensive playbook. From digital intrusion to physical social engineering, you will decide where and how we strike next to keep clients perpetually on their guard (and safe).
• Drive relentless delivery – Oversee end-to-end red team operations. Ensure our unlimited-scope attacks stay agile, unpredictable and brutally effective.
• Innovate and experiment – Champion a culture of innovation and hacking research. Encourage the team to find new vulnerabilities, develop novel exploits and think like attackers who break the rules.
• Engage and influence – Be the offensive security evangelist for our clients. Interface directly with customers’ C-suites and boards, translating our hackers’ findings into business insights they can act on.
• Mentor the Hive – Develop the next generation of adversarial experts. Coach and train your team members in advanced tradecraft, refine their soft skills, and instill in them the confidence to present and lead.
• Collaborate globally – Work with CovertSwarm’s US and global leadership to ensure we operate as one unified Swarm. Share tactics, align on strategy, and contribute to the overall direction of our services.

Qualifications

• Proven offensive security leadership – You have built, led, and scaled offensive security teams.
• Offensive security mastery – Deep expertise in the art and science of cyber-attack.
• Strategic vision with a hands-on edge – You can set high-level strategy and dive into the weeds when needed.
• Mentor and team builder – A passion for people development.
• Stellar communicator – You can distil complex attack narratives into crystal-clear, non-jargon language for executives.
• Ambitious and accountable – You set audacious goals and deliver.
• Culture fit (Rebel at heart) – CovertSwarm has no room for corporate politics.

Benefits

• Pure offense, no fluff – 100% of our focus is on hacking and attacking (ethically, of course).
• Explosive growth and opportunity – Join a rocket ship with triple-digit growth.
• Remote and flexible – Work from anywhere in the UK/Europe and design your own schedule.
• Unlimited PTO and training – Take time off whenever you need; we invest heavily in continuous learning and development.
• Team of All-Stars – Lead some of the most talented and passionate hackers in the industry.
• No mundane reports – Focus on hacking, not on writing lengthy reports.
• All the best toys – Expense account for hardware, software, and tools needed for effectiveness.
• Community and credibility – Contribute to the security community with support for speaking engagements.
• No BS Culture – Enjoy a fun, candid environment without corporate drama.
