We're looking for a Technical Architect to join a major organisation that keeps essential services ticking across the UK. This is your chance to take charge of complex, multi-site network architecture-shaping how systems connect, communicate, and scale.

The environment is enterprise-level, the challenges are real, and the work you do will have a direct impact on thousands of users across the business.

What You'll Do:

• Design secure, scalable IT network architectures to meet evolving business needs
• Lead network projects from concept to delivery, working cross-functionally with tech teams
• Recommend strategic infrastructure decisions on hardware, software, and network tooling
• Improve performance and reliability through ongoing analysis and innovation
• Collaborate with cyber and infrastructure teams to embed network security best practices
• Troubleshoot complex issues and provide hands-on support where needed
• Stay ahead of the curve on new technologies and drive continuous improvement

What You'll Bring:

• At least 3 years of experience designing and delivering enterprise network solutions
• Strong knowledge of IP networking, routing, switching, VLANs, and firewalls
• Hands-on experience in hybrid on-prem/cloud environments
• Familiarity with network monitoring, wireless networks, VPNs, and IDS/IPS
• Certifications like CCNA or CCNP (CCIE = major bonus points)
• Excellent communicator, capable of translating tech into business value

? Degree in IT, Computer Science, or a similar field is essential
? Bonus if you've worked in regulated or high-availability environments

Why You Should Apply:

Because you're after more than BAU. You want to be involved in the design, the decisions, and the future of a large IT network-without being buried in red tape. This is a role where your expertise is trusted, your voice is heard, and your growth is backed.
