Role Overview
A major refresh and refurbishment programme is underway across a large corporate campus in London supporting critical, business-sensitive operations. We're seeking three experienced Network Engineers to support the design, implementation and delivery of campus network changes. This is a delivery and project-based role, not a support or operational one. We need engineers used to delivering: planning, preparing and driving project work end-to-end, instructing and coordinating other engineers or contractors, and physically delivering, installing and migrating kit rather than fixing or maintaining existing infrastructure.
Candidates should be comfortable operating in a highly regulated, large enterprise environment with strict change controls, working alongside cabling design, audio-visual, security, construction and end-user testing teams.
Indicative work split:
- Implementation ~60%
- Design (largely templated and repeatable) ~20%
- Project coordination, validation and other tasks ~20%
Programme Scope
- Reviewing and relocating main equipment rooms across the building
- Refreshing floors as they are decommissioned, refurbished and brought back into service
- Migrating services to temporary core/distribution and ultimately to the final core/distribution design
- Deploying and configuring new network kit as floors and equipment rooms become available, including delivering kit to site, instructing junior engineers/contractors, and migrating and refreshing existing switches
- Refreshing wireless infrastructure across multiple generations of Wi-Fi deployed across the estate, including managing user Wi-Fi through construction and handover phases and coordinating closely with construction teams
- Building network infrastructure to the standard expected in live operations, with security requirements designed in from the outset rather than retrofitted
- Validating network functionality jointly with cabling, AV, physical security and end-user testing teams
Note: The programme is office/campus focused, with minimal involvement in data centre or load-balancing technologies. Candidates should still have experience deploying data centre-grade network devices.
