Network Specialist
You've built solid experience in network support — you know the kit, you troubleshoot fast, and you're ready for more. This is the role that bridges that gap.
A growing public-sector technology business is looking for a Network Specialist to step into project implementation and genuinely drive delivery. They've won a strong pipeline of large-scale contracts and have no plans to slow down. You'll move from reactive support into proactive project work — designing and delivering solutions that make a tangible difference to public services and the people who rely on them.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
• Solid network support background — comfortable with multi-vendor environments
• Exposure to Juniper, Cisco, Aruba, or Fortinet technology (ideally more than one)
• Ready to transition: you want to own implementation, not just maintain
• A delivery mindset — you see a project through from start to finish
• ClearPass or ISE experience is a bonus, not a barrier
---
THE PACKAGE
• £40,000 – £50,000 base salary
• Discretionary bonus ~£2,000 per annum
• On-call: 1 week in 11
• Hybrid: 3 days office (Salford or Lancaster) / 2 days from home

WHY THIS MOVE MAKES SENSE
• Step up without stepping into the unknown — structured move from support to delivery
• Agile business: small enough that your contribution is visible and valued
• Big projects with real complexity — the kind of work that builds your CV fast
• Public sector focus — the work genuinely improves lives
• Low on-call burden so you're not permanently on edge
