Exposure to regulated or critical infrastructure environments such as energy, oil and gas, defence, or Operational Technology would be advantageous. Key Responsibilities Design and deliver enterprise network solutions across routing, switching, firewall, and where required wireless technologies, with a strong emphasis on project implementation rather than BAU administration. Produce high quality low level designs, implementation plans, migration plans, and build documentation to support project delivery. Deploy, configure, test, and optimise network infrastructure using strong Cisco networking knowledge at CCNP level or equivalent. Support the design and implementation of modern network architectures, including traditional three tier campus designs and spine leaf or fabric based architectures using technologies such as Cisco ACI or VXLAN EVPN. Configure and support Palo Alto security platforms, including next generation firewalls, Panorama, security policy implementation, NAT, VPNs, and threat prevention features. Apply strong working knowledge of core network protocols and services, including BGP, OSPF, IS IS, VXLAN, VLANs, HSRP/VRRP, routing policy, multicast, and related enterprise services. Undertake hands on build, proof of concept, lab validation, and technical testing activity to de risk delivery and validate designs before deployment into production. Troubleshoot and resolve complex technical issues encountered during project delivery, implementation, migration, or testing phases. Work closely with architects, project managers, security teams, and customer stakeholders to ensure solutions are aligned to agreed design principles, standards, and governance requirements. Support change execution through the preparation, rehearsal, and implementation of changes within controlled project and operational environments. Produce and maintain accurate technical documentation, including configuration baselines, as built records, network diagrams, test results, and support handover material. Contribute to technical workshops, design reviews, and customer discussions, with the confidence to explain technical decisions clearly and credibly. Understand how network infrastructure integrates with wider platform components, including compute and storage environments built on VMware, Nutanix, and Hyper V. Skills and Experience Strong enterprise networking background with hands on experience in project delivery, implementation, and design. Cisco networking expertise to CCNP level preferred; CCNA with strong relevant experience will also be considered. Good experience across core enterprise routing and switching technologies.

Follow and contribute to standard operating procedures, change-management processes, and post-implementation reviews. Provide clear handover notes and shift reports for weekday engineering teams.
