When the business needs experienced leadership
The starting point might be inconsistent delivery, senior consultants becoming bottlenecks, dependence on the founder, or a team that has grown faster than its management structures and working practices.
Conversec supports specialist pentest firms, MSSPs, cyber security consultancies, internal teams and PE-backed businesses. The work brings an experienced operational view and practical leadership where another permanent senior hire is not needed.
Agree the support the situation needs
We provide focused operational diagnostics, consultant development, acquisition reviews, integration support and fractional leadership. Engagements reflect the decisions and responsibilities that need attention, with progress reviewed against the business's circumstances.
A diagnostic tests explanations against delivery evidence. Consultant development provides coaching during the work. Fractional leadership assigns responsibility for defined decisions and management work. The engagement sets out what Simon owns, what remains with your managers and how progress will be reviewed.
Investors and acquiring groups
For investors and acquirers, the question may be whether an offensive security capability can scale, where operational risk sits and how dependent it is on key people. We examine how that capability could fit within a wider cyber security business and support the decisions involved in integration.
