What A Typical Week Looks Like

This is a highly active, 37-hour-a-week field role where no two days are the same. Your main focus will be out on-site doing the heavy lifting of network engineering:

• On-Site Project Execution: Traveling across our regional estate to install, maintain, and decommission physical equipment at data centers and remote processing sites.
• Hardware & Cabling: Mounting network cabinets, switches, and routers (yes, you’ll be using power tools!), and implementing new structured cabling solutions (Ethernet, Cat5e, Cat6a, and single/multimode fiber).
• Power & Protocol Management: Working hands-on with a mix of 230v AC, as well as 24v and 48v DC power systems used by low-voltage routers, switches, and sensors.
• High-Level Support: Backing up the IT Helpdesk by providing expert 2nd and 3rd line support to troubleshoot complex routing, switching, and security issues while on or off-site.
• 
  

What You’ll Bring:

• The Technical Foundations: CCNA, CompTIA, or equivalent certification/formal training.
• Field Experience: Proven experience with physical network installations, patching, and enclosure mounting.
• Protocol Expertise: Solid knowledge of routing, switching, and network security protocols.
• Versatility: Comfort working with low-voltage DC power systems and a "security-first" mentality.
• Communication Skills: The ability to collaborate closely with your site partner and explain technical solutions clearly to non-technical end-users.
• IT Savvy: Experience with Google Workspace/M365, cloud infrastructure (GCP/Azure/AWS), ITIL frameworks, or a background working within the water/utilities sector.
