Senior Network Engineer

We're looking for a Senior Network Engineer who enjoys solving complex networking challenges, designing enterprise solutions, and working directly with customers to deliver secure, scalable and high-performing environments.

You'll be joining a growing technology consultancy delivering enterprise networking and security solutions across commercial, enterprise and government customers. Working as part of a highly skilled Network Practice, you'll play a key role in solution design, project delivery, customer engagement and technical leadership.

This isn't a traditional support role. You'll lead technical workshops, deliver enterprise network implementations, mentor engineers, contribute to pre-sales activities and become a trusted technical advisor for both customers and internal teams.

If you enjoy designing solutions, building strong customer relationships and leading complex technical projects from concept through to delivery, this is an excellent opportunity to take the next step in your career.

What You'll Work On
  • Design and deliver enterprise networking and security solutions across diverse customer environments
  • Lead technical workshops and engage directly with customers throughout the project lifecycle
  • Implement Fortinet, Cisco and Meraki networking solutions across enterprise environments
  • Deliver complex routing, switching, firewall and SD-WAN projects
  • Produce high-quality solution documentation including HLDs, LLDs, implementation plans and as-built documentation
  • Support technical proposals, solution development and pre-sales engagements
  • Provide technical leadership and mentor engineers across the wider Network Practice
  • Work closely with Project Managers, vendors and customers to deliver successful project outcomes
  • Support complex technical escalations and provide expert guidance across customer environments
What We're Looking For
  • Extensive experience designing, implementing and supporting enterprise network environments
  • Strong hands-on experience with Fortinet technologies including FortiGate, FortiManager, FortiAnalyzer and SD-WAN
  • Strong experience across Cisco and/or Cisco Meraki technologies
  • Excellent understanding of enterprise routing, switching and network security
  • Experience leading customer-facing projects and facilitating technical workshops
  • Experience producing solution designs and technical documentation including HLDs, LLDs, implementation plans and as-built documentation
  • Strong communicates
  • A collaborative mindset with experience mentoring or supporting other engineers
Nice To Have
  • Fortinet FCSS, FCP, NSE or equivalent Fortinet certifications
  • CCNA, CCNP or other Cisco certifications
  • Experience with Palo Alto technologies
  • Exposure to Zero Trust or SASE architectures
  • Experience working with carrier or WAN technologies including MPLS, Internet Direct, Point-to-Point, Dark Fibre or similar services
  • Experience contributing to pre-sales activities, technical proposals and RFP responses
Why You'll Love It
  • Join a collaborative Network Practice delivering complex enterprise networking and security projects
  • Genuine opportunity to influence solution design and technical outcomes from day one
  • Work directly with customers across enterprise, commercial and government environments
  • Exposure to modern networking, security, SD-WAN and cloud connectivity technologies
  • Strong investment in professional development, technical learning and ongoing career growth
  • Opportunity to mentor engineers while expanding your consulting, architecture and technical leadership experience

If you're an experienced Network Engineer looking to move beyond BAU support into a role where you'll influence solution design, work directly with customers and deliver enterprise networking projects, we'd love to hear from you.
