We are seeking a highly accomplished Senior Network Project Delivery Engineer to lead the end-to-end delivery of enterprise network and security transformation programmes.
This role requires a strong foundation in project delivery and governance, complemented by a strong technical background, ensuring that complex initiatives are executed on time, within budget, and in alignment with organisational compliance standards.
The successful candidate will bring 10–15 years of experience managing and delivering large-scale enterprise network projects, demonstrating excellence in planning, execution, stakeholder management, and vendor governance.
Beyond project leadership, the role requires the ability to validate and oversee technical solutions in data centre networking, Cisco ACI, routing and switching, VXLAN, and advanced fabric technologies.
Proficiency in network security, application delivery, automation, and observability will further enable the candidate to bridge technical background with Project delivery leadership, driving mission-critical outcomes for the organisation.
