Cyber Response & Recovery Manager (Remediation) \n \n This role requires current SC or DV clearance, or eligibility and willingness to obtain clearance. \n \n About the role \n \n The Cyber Response & Recovery Manager role will sit within the Cyber Response Services team in KPMG’s Cyber Advisory practice. \n \n Your specific focus will be in the domain of recovery and remediation post incident. Our clients continue to face increasingly destructive cyber threats, particularly ransomware, destructive malware, business email compromise, Active Directory compromise, cloud compromise and advanced network intrusions. In these situations, clients look to KPMG not only to investigate and contain the incident, but also to help them recover securely, rebuild critical services, reduce the risk of reinfection and improve their long-term resilience. \n \n This is a hands-on cyber response and recovery manager role, focused on supporting clients through the most operationally critical phase of a cyber incident: restoring business services safely and securely. The role will work closely with incident response leads, forensic teams, legal advisers, crisis management teams, technology teams and client executives to convert incident findings into practical remediation, rebuild and recovery actions. \n \n As a cyber response recovery manager, you will help clients stabilise their environment, remove attacker persistence, restore identity and infrastructure services, support patching and vulnerability remediation, advise on secure rebuild patterns, review and redesign network architecture, establish isolated recovery environments, and define phased recovery and security improvement roadmaps. \n \n This role is particularly suited to someone with strong hands-on infrastructure, systems administration and cyber security experience, who can operate effectively during high-pressure incidents and provide pragmatic, technically credible advice to clients. The successful candidate should be comfortable working across Windows, Linux, Active Directory, virtualisation, networking, cloud and enterprise infrastructure technologies, and should be able to translate technical remediation requirements into clear recovery plans for both technical and senior stakeholder audiences. \n \n KPMG is one of a small number of Tier 1 incident response providers in the UK. As such, this role provides the opportunity to work on complex, high-profile cyber incidents across a wide range of sectors. You will gain significant experience supporting clients during moments of critical need and will have the opportunity to develop both your technical recovery expertise and incident leadership capability. \n \n When not responding to live incidents, you may support clients with cyber resilience, recovery readiness and post-incident transformation engagements. This may include developing recovery playbooks, designing isolated recovery environments, assessing Active Directory and infrastructure resilience, supporting ransomware recovery planning, reviewing network segmentation, improving backup and restore strategies, and helping clients define cyber security improvement roadmaps. \n \n Our clients expect that cyber-incidents will be tackled with urgency, therefore, there is an expectation that you will be flexible in terms of working hours and be on call (on a rotation basis). In addition, you should be prepared to travel on short notice for periods up to 2 or 3 weeks at a time. \n \n Above all, KPMG is looking for someone who is passionate about helping clients recover from cyber incidents in a safe, structured and sustainable way. In return, KPMG is committed to supporting your development, technical growth and progression into senior cyber response and recovery leadership roles. \n \n Why join us? \n\n • One of only nine UK Tier 1 incident response providers\n, • Access to nationally significant incidents\n, • Exposure across government and critical infrastructure\n, • Investment in certifications and training\n, • Opportunity to shape a rapidly growing capability\n\n \n What will you be doing? \n \n This role is not a pure incident response role. It is a hands-on cyber recovery role focused on helping clients restore services, remediate compromised infrastructure and build stronger security foundations after a cyber incident. \n \n The ideal candidate will combine: \n\n • Deep infrastructure and systems administration experience.\n, • Strong cyber security and incident response understanding.\n, • Hands-on remediation and recovery capability.\n, • Active Directory, Windows, Linux and network architecture expertise.\n, • The ability to lead technical workstreams during high-pressure incidents.\n, • The ability to define and execute short, medium and long-term security roadmaps.\n\n \n Further responsibilities will include: \n\n • The Cyber Response Recovery Manager will be responsible for leading and supporting cyber recovery workstreams during active cyber incidents and post-incident remediation programmes. Responsibilities will include:\n, • Lead cyber recovery workstreams during major incidents, working closely with incident response, forensic, client IT, legal, insurer and senior stakeholder teams, translating incident findings into clear remediation and recovery actions.\n, • Deliver hands-on remediation across enterprise environments, including Active Directory recovery and hardening, Windows/Linux systems, network, cloud, endpoint and security tooling, with a focus on removing attacker persistence and restoring trust.\n, • Drive patching and vulnerability remediation activities, prioritising actions based on business risk, threat actor behaviour and incident context.\n, • Review and redesign network architecture and security controls, including segmentation, firewall rules, and administrative access pathways, to reduce reinfection risk and improve resilience.\n, • Establish and support secure recovery environments and rebuild strategies, including isolated environments, backup validation, restore sequencing, and secure restoration of business-critical services.\n, • Define and execute phased recovery and transformation plans, including immediate stabilisation, structured remediation, and security improvement roadmaps and rebuild standards.\n, • Manage end-to-end delivery of recovery engagements, including stakeholder communication, project management, reporting, proposals, capability development, and mentoring junior team members.\n\n \n The Person \n \n You should have a strong background in cyber-security and incident response. For example: You should be able to guide a client through an unstructured incident response process (such as an advanced network intrusion) – managing resources and defining objectives at each stage of the incident response process; scoping and triage, containment, evidence preservation and extraction, eradication, recovery, forensic analysis and investigation. \n\n • A broad understanding of the cyber security threat landscape.\n, • Strong technical background in computers and networks, and programming skills.\n, • Significant and proven experience of dealing with cyber security incidents and associated response measures.\n, • Experience of managing a rapid deployment incident response team.\n, • Excellent interpersonal, written and communication skills.\n, • Understanding of a wide range of information security and IT methodologies, principles, technologies and techniques.\n, • A genuine interest and desire to develop and mention junior team members.\n, • Strong attention for detail and the ability to manage multiple simultaneous cases.\n\n \n Skills we’d love to see/Amazing Extras: \n \n The successful candidate will demonstrate competency in computing and networks as well as in cyber-security either by having the relevant work experience, completed a degree or obtained industry relevant certification. Therefore the qualifications below should be seen as means to demonstrate competency and not as a requirement. The desired skill and qualification is provided below: \n\n • Excellent communication skills (both written and oral) and project management skills.\n, • Strong hands-on experience across enterprise infrastructure, including Windows Server, Active Directory, Linux, networking, and cloud environments (e.g. Azure, AWS, Microsoft 365), with the ability to operate at a systems administrator level during recovery scenarios.\n, • Proven experience supporting cyber incident recovery, including ransomware, Active Directory compromise, network intrusion, or large-scale infrastructure incidents, with the ability to translate incident findings into practical remediation and recovery actions.\n, • Demonstrated capability in leading and executing remediation activities, including identity and Active Directory hardening, patching and vulnerability remediation, secure system rebuild, backup validation, and restoration of business-critical services.\n, • Solid understanding of network architecture and security, including segmentation, firewall design, administrative access paths, and the ability to review and redesign environments to reduce reinfection risk and improve resilience.\n, • Experience developing and delivering structured recovery plans, remediation trackers, and security roadmaps aligned to immediate recovery, medium-term stabilisation, and long-term transformation.\n, • Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to engage both technical and executive audiences, manage high-pressure situations, and produce clear, high-quality deliverables and reporting.\n, • Effective project and delivery management capability, including scoping, prioritisation, financial oversight, and managing multiple workstreams during complex, time-sensitive cyber recovery engagements.\n\n \n Location: \n Our core hubs for this role are either: \n\n • London (Canary Wharf); or\n, • Manchester (St Peter’s Square).\n\n You must be within commutable distance to one of these locations. Current KPMG policy is 60% of the week with clients or our offices, 40% elsewhere (that can include working from home). \n
