Q3 2023

As a leading cyber security recruitment agency, Trident Search has thrived in a position that few would. Cyber security is an industry that demands expertise, and finding the right applicant for a role is crucial. It’s a niche sector that is constantly moving forward. All recruitment agencies operating in this space need to reflect that drive, and Trident Search has certainly achieved that. Incredible Recruitment Services for an Unstoppable Industry We spoke with Charlee-Ben Ryman, CoFounder and Director at Trident Search, following the company’s recognition as the Best Cyber Recruitment Agency in the UK. During the conversation, Charlee touched on the team’s notable expertise and industry knowledge alongside the company’s greater focus on cultivating a trustworthy, reliable, and skilled reputation in an environment that is eager for best-in-class recruitment solutions. Today, Trident Search has flourished on the international stage, working with clients across twenty-four countries to find the best cyber security and sales professionals. In his opening comments, Charlee touches on the pillars of Trident Search’s success. “Drawing on years of experience, we understand the nuances within the cyber security employment landscape. The business began when co-founder Josh Keeley and I realised that there was a gap in the market for a well-developed, highly trained, technical, and motivated agency; one that was built on an entirely new style and offered an unrivalled culture. “Our aim has always been to be seen as a trusted partner, supporting candidates through every stage of their career and working in collaboration with clients to find the best talent for their commercial and product teams. This is reflected in our mission, to “fight cybercrime by connecting our clients with top talent faster than anyone else in the industry”. We’re passionate about supporting the cyber security industry to overcome adversaries, a particularly important mission given this period of global challenges.” It’s clear that Trident Search’s culture of excellence is a key aspect of the company and its approach to its work. Since its establishment in 2020, Trident Search has had a keen focus on its internal culture, and how that culture reflects and reinforces its client-centricity. Charlee describes it as the company’s “cornerstone” before continuing, “having come from the super-corporate recruitment world, we saw in Trident Search an opportunity to turn the standard model on its head and pioneer a new approach centred on putting people first and leading with intent. We’re aiming to be the best recruiters in the cyber industry, always pursuing higher standards, something we can only achieve by promoting a healthy and happy culture in which our teams are supported to be the very best they can be. Unlike some others in the recruitment space, we have an excellent retention rate of 87.5% and our team frequently report the company culture as the reason they love coming into work.” Acting as a potent testament to this, the company was honoured as one of the top 50 UK recruitment companies to work for in the 2023 People’s Platform Awards. No small feat at all. “It is our values, mission, and people that set us apart from the competition and have enabled us to expand at this rate in what is already a very crowded market.” But let’s talk a little bit more about the industry that Trident Search operates within. Recruitment is a challenging arena in any context, but within cyber security – which constantly shifts and moves forwards relentlessly – complacency could be a death knell. Charlee agrees and emphasises in his closing comments that Trident Search will always endeavour to stay a pacesetter on the greater, global landscape. That remains fundamental to its leadership’s goal for the future of the business. “Complacency is your worst enemy. We’re immensely proud of Trident Search and how far we have come since launching in 2020, and although we celebrate each milestone, we know we can never rest on our laurels. The cyber recruitment space is increasingly popular, and there will always be competitors who want to take your market share. That’s why we are constantly looking for ways to innovate, whether that’s through expanding our geographical offering, taking on new specialisms, or reaching out to new audiences through dedicated networking events. “With market intelligence being such a core USP for us, we take this approach with our teams too. As the hub of cyber security recruitment, our consultants ensure they are always aware of the latest frameworks, methodologies, products, threat actors, and tools; in such a fast-paced industry, staying at the forefront of change is vital if we are to offer genuine career advice. Our team hold industry certifications, host networking events, and are real experts within their specific markets.” For valuable insights on the cyber market, advice on your hiring strategy, and a service tailored to your particular goals, speak to one of Trident Search’s qualified consultants today.
