The Company
Our client is a highly innovative engineering business whose technology supports some of the world's most demanding industries.
As the business continues to grow, they're investing heavily in their network infrastructure to improve resilience, performance and security across multiple UK locations.
You'll be joining a small, highly collaborative Infrastructure team where you'll be trusted to take ownership of the network, solve complex technical challenges and contribute to projects that genuinely make a difference.
This is an environment where your technical knowledge will be valued and where you'll have the opportunity to influence how the network evolves.
The Job
This is a genuinely hands-on Network Engineering role where you'll become one of the technical specialists responsible for maintaining and improving a business-critical Cisco networking environment.
You'll be responsible for supporting and configuring Cisco networking technologies, troubleshooting complex Layer 2 and Layer 3 networking issues, maintaining secure WAN and LAN connectivity and helping deliver infrastructure projects across the business.
This isn't simply a monitoring or ticket-passing role.
You'll investigate problems, identify root causes, implement solutions and work closely with colleagues and third-party vendors to continually improve the network environment.
What You'll Actually Be Doing
- Configuring, supporting and maintaining Cisco network infrastructure.
- Supporting Cisco Meraki environments across multiple locations.
- Troubleshooting complex Layer 2 and Layer 3 networking issues.
- Supporting enterprise routing, switching and wireless networking.
- Managing firewall technologies, VPN connectivity and secure remote access.
- Supporting Azure networking and hybrid connectivity where required.
- Installing and commissioning new network infrastructure.
- Monitoring network performance and implementing continuous improvements.
- Producing technical documentation and supporting change management.
- Working closely with third-party vendors to resolve technical issues.
- Participating in an on-call rota when required.
The Profile Of Person Required
We're looking for an experienced Network Engineer who enjoys getting hands-on with technology and takes pride in delivering reliable, secure networking solutions.
You'll already be supporting complex Cisco environments and be confident troubleshooting networking issues independently rather than escalating them.
You'll ideally have experience with
- Cisco routing and switching.
- Cisco Meraki.
- Layer 2 and Layer 3 networking.
- Enterprise LAN/WAN environments.
- Firewalls and VPN technologies.
- Wireless networking.
- Network monitoring and performance troubleshooting.
- 3rd Line technical support.
- Infrastructure projects and network upgrades.
- Technical documentation.
Exposure to Azure networking, Microsoft technologies or Zero Trust networking would be advantageous but isn't essential.
CCNA or CCNP certification would also be beneficial.
More importantly, we're looking for someone who enjoys solving problems, takes ownership of issues through to resolution and wants to be part of a collaborative engineering team where technical excellence is genuinely valued.
