• Work closely with clients, suppliers and internal stakeholders to keep delivery on schedule and within the agreed scope.
• Manage post-migration stabilisation, investigate cutover problems and hand over to BAU once services are steady.
• Prepare and present network designs, delivery plans and technical advice for both technical audiences and non-technical decision-makers.
• Support process and documentation improvements that strengthen project delivery and operational efficiency.
• Use strong networking foundations to resolve difficult issues in both known and unfamiliar environments.

Requirements

• Proven background as a Network Engineer, preferably in an MSP, systems integrator or project delivery setting.
• Strong understanding of TCP/IP and enterprise networking protocols such as BGP, OSPF, VLANs, spanning tree, VRRP, LAG/MCLAG and NAT/PAT.
• Practical experience planning, implementing and troubleshooting IPsec and SSL VPN solutions.
• Hands-on exposure to next-generation firewall capabilities including intrusion prevention, web filtering and application control.
• Familiarity with platforms and vendors such as Fortinet, Palo Alto, Aruba, Cisco, MikroTik and/or Juniper.
• Well-developed analytical, troubleshooting and problem-solving ability.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills, with the confidence to engage technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Australian NV1 Security Clearance, or the ability to obtain it.
• A valid Vulnerable People / Working with Children Check (WWCC) and Police Check are required.

Benefits

• Hybrid working is available for most roles, with team anchor days to encourage collaboration.
• Ongoing training and development opportunities to support continuous career growth.
• Access to a wide range of discounts and benefits to help stretch your money further.
• Choice of IT equipment to suit your working style, plus access to cost-price technology for personal use.
