Junior Network Engineer

Role & What’s in it for the applicant and why would they apply?:

This is a career-building opportunity for a graduate or junior network engineer who wants to be part of a growing journey rather than just filling a seat.

You’ll work closely with an experienced Senior Network Engineer, learning hands-on across real customer environments while building strong foundations in LAN, wireless, firewalls, and connectivity solutions. The focus is on development, exposure, and progression — not throwing you in at the deep end without support.

If you’re looking for a role where you can grow from junior to confident network engineer, get exposure to modern vendor technologies, and work with a wide variety of customers, this is a strong first or second step.

Responsibilities:

• Support day-to-day BAU network troubleshooting across customer environments.

• Assist with network projects, upgrades, and deployments.

• Work with Layer 2 networks, LAN, wireless, and firewall technologies.

• Learn and support solutions built around Cisco-led networking platforms.

• Shadow and support a Senior Network Engineer on more complex issues and projects.

• Travel to customer sites where required to support installations or troubleshooting.

• Build documentation and develop best-practice troubleshooting skills.

• Actively develop technical skills and progress toward more responsibility over time.

Skills / Must Have:

• A genuine interest in networking and infrastructure.

• Understanding of core networking concepts (LAN, switching, wireless, firewalls).

• Willingness to learn, develop, and be part of a long-term journey.

• Comfortable working remotely with the flexibility to travel when required.

• Strong communication skills and a professional approach with customers.

Nice to Have (but not essential):

• CCNA or working toward it.

• Exposure to HPE Aruba or Cisco Meraki.

• Basic understanding of Azure networking.

• UK driving licence.

Benefits:

• Fully remote role, UK-wide.

• Opportunity to work alongside and be mentored by a Senior Network Engineer.

• Exposure to real-world customer environments across multiple industries.

• Clear development path from junior to more senior engineering responsibilities.

• Support for training and certification as you progress.

Salary:

• £32,000 per annum.
