Network Manager

A really well-established Professional services organisation, with offices across the globe, are looking for an experienced Network manager to take charge of their international network function. This is a brand-new role with responsibility for managing a team of 8 Network Engineers across multiple locations. With a major SD-WAN project on the horizon, this is an opportunity to shape and influence network strategy on a global scale.

What You'll Be Doing:

You'll oversee a team of 8 engineers (3 in Australia, 5 in the UK) and will take ownership of network performance, infrastructure planning, vendor relationships, and the implementation of next-gen network solutions. You'll bring the right blend of technical know-how and leadership, balancing strategic decisions with operational oversight.

While this isn't a hands-on role, your background in enterprise networking will be vital for steering the team and making key technical calls. So, the ideal fit for this position will have a prior experience in a Network Engineering capacity.

What You'll Bring:

You'll bring a strong background in enterprise network infrastructure with the leadership skills to manage a global team and the technical know-how to guide future-focused projects like SD-WAN implementation. You're confident engaging with senior stakeholders and external vendors, and you know how to get the best out of both people and technology.

Key experience includes:

• Advanced Cisco networking (routing, switching - BGP, OSPF), plus Firewall and wireless expertise (Palo Alto, Fortinet, Aruba)
• Proven experience delivering SD-WAN solutions across global, multi-site environments
• Leadership of distributed teams and third-party vendors, with strong stakeholder communication
• Exposure to cloud networking (Azure, AWS) and automation tools (Ansible, Terraform, Python - desirable)

Why This Role?

Alongside a competitive salary (happy to discuss on a call), you'll benefit from a flexible hybrid setup (3 days on-site in Glasgow) and the chance to work across UK and APAC time zones - perfect if you enjoy variety and international collaboration. The benefits are generous too: private healthcare, enhanced pension contributions, 25 days holiday (plus public holidays and option to buy more), and even an electric car scheme. More than anything, this is a high-impact role in a business that truly values its tech leadership.
