Supporting transition into service, including knowledge transfer and early life support
Working closely with Managed Services, Microsoft teams, vendors, and third parties

Contributing technical insight to future change, improvements, and pre-sales activity
Building strong customer relationships as a trusted technical advisor

Essential experience:

Strong hands-on experience with Cisco enterprise networking
Experience with enterprise firewalls (Cisco, Palo Alto, or similar)
Solid Layer 2 & 3 networking knowledge (VLANs, routing, STP, DHCP, DNS)
Experience delivering solutions into managed service or operational environments
Strong troubleshooting skills in live production environments
Comfortable working from LLDs and implementation plans
Proven ability to produce clear, structured technical documentation

Desirable experience:

Palo Alto, Cisco Meraki, Juniper, or Fortinet technologies

SD-WAN or software-defined networking
Network automation or scripting exposure
Experience in secure or regulated environments (e.g. nuclear, defence, public sector)

Certifications (or equivalent experience):

CCNA / CCNP, JNCIP, NSE4+ or similar

What You’ll Need

Willingness to travel regularly to the North of Scotland and stay overnight when required
Full UK driving licence (preferred)
