Partner Programme

Grow your business
with expert security.

We work with IT service providers, MSPs, and consultancies to deliver CREST-accredited penetration testing to their clients, without the overhead of building an in-house security practice.

Why Partner With Us

Three reasons to join the programme.

Enhance Your Offering

Add CREST-accredited penetration testing and security assurance services to your portfolio immediately. No hiring, no training overhead, no delay. Offer your clients the same standard of security testing that enterprise organisations demand.

Protect Your Reputation

Help your clients identify and remediate vulnerabilities before attackers find them. Proactively catching security weaknesses protects your clients, strengthens your relationship, and keeps your reputation as a trusted technology partner intact.

Generate New Revenue

Our partnership model creates a genuine revenue stream. Earn competitive referral fees or margin on every engagement you introduce. As your client base grows, your recurring security revenue grows with it, in a predictable and scalable way.

The Process

Up and running
in three steps.

Getting started is straightforward. We've designed the programme to be low-friction from day one.

01

Apply

Tell us about your business, your clients, and what you're looking to achieve. We'll review your application and schedule an introductory call within one business day.

02

Onboard

We set up your partner agreement, brief you on our services and methodology, and provide co-branded sales collateral so you can immediately start positioning security testing to your clients.

03

Refer & Earn

Introduce a client opportunity. We handle the scoping, delivery, and reporting. You receive your agreed referral fee or margin, and your client gets a CREST-accredited security assessment.

Partner Benefits

Everything you need
to succeed together.

Co-Branded Proposals & Collateral
Ready-to-use sales decks, service descriptions, and proposal templates co-branded with your logo and ours, so you can present professionally from day one.

A named contact at Illume who understands your business and your clients. Fast responses, clear communication, and a genuine working relationship.
Sales Enablement & Training
We train your sales team on how to position and sell security testing services: what questions to ask, how to scope an opportunity, and how to handle technical objections.
Competitive Referral Rates
Transparent, tiered margin structure. The more you introduce, the better the rates. Payments processed promptly with full reporting on your earnings.
Priority Engagement Scheduling
Partner-referred engagements receive priority booking. Your clients get faster access to our consultants, which is a clear advantage you can promote.
