Producing and maintaining clear network diagrams, IP records and configuration documentation

Supporting the wider infrastructure when required, think Windows and Linux servers, Active Directory, DNS/DHCP, virtualisation with VMware or Hyper-V, and backup and recovery routines

Contributing networking expertise to projects, upgrades and migrations, and delivering third-line support to the business

The person we're after:

A seasoned network professional with a strong track record across enterprise environments

Deep practical knowledge of routing, switching, firewall and wireless technologies
