Palo Alto Security Specialist

Are you a Palo Alto specialist who wants project ownership, long-term stability, and real investment in your development?

This is a project-led security engineering role within a consultancy environment that delivers work across multiple customers in London and across the UK. You’ll be embedded on a major security transformation initially - migrating from Zscaler to Palo Alto - with continuous project work beyond that engagement.

If you enjoy owning projects end to end, designing robust security solutions, and working with Palo Alto technologies at depth, this role offers both challenge and longevity.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Owning end-to-end security projects, from design through to implementation and handover
• Delivering firewall and cloud security solutions using Palo Alto technologies
• Leading a major migration project replacing Zscaler with Palo Alto
• Designing secure architectures and translating requirements into practical solutions
• Working across multiple customer environments in a consultancy model
• Acting as a trusted technical specialist for customers and internal stakeholders
• Producing clear technical documentation and designs
• Supporting continuous improvement and optimisation of customer security environments

What We’re Looking For

• Strong hands-on experience with Palo Alto Networks technologies
• Proven experience with:
• Panorama and/or Prisma
• Background in project-based delivery, owning design and implementation
• Confidence operating in customer-facing environments
• Strong understanding of modern network and security architectures

Highly Desirable

• Palo Alto certifications (or actively working towards them)
• Experience delivering large-scale firewall or security platform migrations
• Consultancy or multi-customer environment experience

Why This Role?

• Long-term project pipeline — consistent work beyond a single customer
• True ownership of security projects from start to finish
• Hybrid working with genuine flexibility (2-3 days onsite)
• Full support for certifications, all the way up to CCIE-level
• Bonus scheme on top of competitive base salary
• A consultancy environment that invests in technical excellence

If you’re a Palo Alto Security Engineer or Consultant looking for project ownership, progression, and long-term security-focused work, I’d be happy to have a confidential conversation.
