The opportunity:
We are looking to find a network architect to contribute to projects both in the UK and across our wider group.
You will be experienced in the design of network architectures within highly secure environments, possibly with a history of build and test operations in your career. You will work on projects at various stages, which might be anywhere from inception through to delivery. On a typical day you may be chairing a passionate exchange of ideas between peers in our national operations teams, pitching concept designs to information security colleagues, or setting new architectural directions. It is also likely that this role will be involved in non-standard demands, local/national projects and contributing to the group's move towards cloud services.
The Group Network Solutions and Development team is responsible for harmonising network architecture across all of the individual country networks. We work with our network operations, back office, Information Security, application and SOC colleagues to achieve and maintain operation and accreditation on the many systems within our scope. We work at every level of classification and in many countries within and outside Europe. UK-based members of the team will often also work on UK-specific topics as demand requires. We often need to find a middle path through several potential or competing approaches therefore diplomacy is a significant asset. We tend to be informal in our approach to ensure productive cooperation.
What we're looking for from you: Network architecture and design skills with a bias towards network security systems Ideally, experience of working with classified information within the UK and/or NATO member countries Ability to contribute to, coordinate and chair technical/design meetings Comfort working in an international and multi-cultural context. Ability to work with other teams, internal customers, business analysts and others
