The opportunity: If you are already working at a senior level within network security and want a role where you can take genuine technical ownership of customer environments, this is worth a look. We are working with a growing specialist network and connectivity business that designs, builds and supports complex network environments for large organisations across the UK. Due to continued growth, they are looking to add a Senior Network Security Consultant to the team. This is much more than a 3rd line support position. You will take projects from initial customer requirements and solution design through to implementation, documentation and ongoing technical ownership. You will work closely with customers and the commercial team at the pre-sales stage, gathering requirements, designing solutions and presenting those back to the customer before taking the technical lead through delivery. It is a genuinely hands-on consultancy position, but one where you will have much more ownership around architecture, customer strategy and technical direction. There is a strong investment in technical development too, with relevant professional qualifications and certifications funded as part of the role.
Day to day: You will be designing, implementing and supporting network security solutions across complex customer environments. That will include enterprise firewalls, LAN/WAN, VPNs, SD-WAN, ZTNA, SASE, authentication and wider network security technologies, alongside maintaining a strong understanding of routing, switching and networking fundamentals. You will lead technical projects throughout their lifecycle, producing detailed designs and implementation plans before taking responsibility for successful delivery. There is also an increasing focus on modern security operations, so exposure to areas such as SIEM, SOAR and XDR would be useful. Beyond project delivery, you will act as a senior technical escalation point, carry out customer security audits and health checks, make recommendations around improving existing environments and provide ongoing technical ownership for nominated customers. You will also help develop other engineers within the team through technical mentoring, knowledge sharing and internal training. The environments are business-critical, so there is an out-of-hours/on-call element to the role alongside occasional planned maintenance.
Who we are looking for: You could currently be a Senior Network Security Engineer, Network Security Consultant, Senior Network.
