Overview

We’re looking for an experienced Network Engineer to support a major system migration project, followed by ongoing BAU (Business-as-Usual) support. This role is fully remote but may require occasional travel to sites as needed during key project phases.

• Assist in network documentation, change control, and post-migration support
• Transition into BAU support—handling incident response, performance tuning, and small-scale changes
• Participate in regular remote meetings and occasional on-site sessions

Required Skills & Experience

• Proven experience delivering enterprise-level network migrations
• Strong knowledge of routing, switching, VLANs, and firewall technologies (e.g., Fortinet, Cisco, Palo Alto)
• Experience with VPNs, SD-WAN, and network segmentation
• Familiarity with monitoring tools (e.g., SolarWinds, PRTG)
• Ability to work autonomously and manage tasks in a fully remote setup
• Certifications such as CCNA, CCNP or equivalent are highly desirable

What’s on Offer

• Competitive day rate £400–£550/day (Outside IR35)
• Fully remote contract with flexible working hours
• 6-month engagement with opportunity for extension
• Involvement in a mission-critical system migration followed by stable BAU operations
