Atmos: Where Purpose, Growth and Humanity Shape Exceptional Careers

The future isn’t waiting. It is morphing, evolving and shifting shape as it races toward us.

Technology is moving fast. Threat actors are more dangerous than ever. And, for most companies, tomorrow’s risks aren’t even on today’s radar. But when everything hits at once that’s when Atmos steps in.

Welcome to the specialist Crisis Communications team at Atmos.

We operate at the intersection of cyber, privacy, media and leadership – supporting clients when reputations, trust, customers and market confidence are on the line. We bring together legal, cyber intelligence, crisis communications and digital expertise to stand alongside organisations in their most critical moments. And we’re growing.

Your Mission

You’ll lead crisis communications across Atmos First Response and Cyber Advisory, taking ownership of strategy and advising leaders in real time during critical moments. You’ll work on high‑stakes matters including:

  • Cyber incidents and data breaches.
  • Privacy events and stakeholder notifications.
  • Media scrutiny and reputational risk.
  • Executive and board‑level crisis response.
  • Incident preparedness, simulations and training.

You’ll work shoulder‑to‑shoulder with:

  • Cyber incident responders.
  • Legal and regulatory specialists.
  • Threat intelligence teams.
  • Crisis communications strategists.
  • Executive leaders and boards.

This isn’t traditional communications. This is crisis response in real time.

You Might Be

A Senior Consultant with:

  • 5–7+ years’ experience in crisis communications, media, PR or in‑house communications.
  • Confidence leading communications in high‑pressure, time‑critical environments.
  • Strong writing instincts and a sharp editorial mind.
  • The ability to translate complex cyber and technical issues into clear, credible messaging.
  • Experience mentoring others and lifting team capability.
  • Curiosity about cyber, privacy and digital risk — or a desire to deepen this expertise.

Experience in cyber incidents, data breaches, or regulated environments is highly valued – but mindset, judgement and adaptability matter just as much.

Why Atmos

Atmos is building something distinctive in the market, shaping the future of cyber, privacy and digital risk. We are constantly innovating and evolving, improving how we operate and streamlining the work that slows others down, giving you more time to focus on meaningful client impact, your development and your wellbeing.

Here, you grow faster and contribute meaningfully, working alongside senior leaders who are invested in your development and share how they think, decide and lead. We empower you to do the best work of your career, fostering curiosity, continuous learning and genuine flexibility that support both professional performance and a life outside work.

We offer:

  • A market-leading bonus structure (including innovation rewards).
  • Merit-based progression.
  • Hybrid work and genuine flexibility.
  • AI-enabled systems and operational support.

Our culture is built on four guiding principles:

We are humans first, looking out for each other and our clients.

We deliver solutions and are willing to do things differently.

We move at pace, keep things simple and deliver on our promises.

We value our people and recognise their contribution.

The Bigger Vision

Atmos exists to revolutionise cyber, privacy and digital risk management, building the next generation of innovative legal services for a world where technology, crisis and law are permanently connected.

If you want to help shape that future, we should talk.
