Senior Network Technician

Liverpool John Moores University is looking to appoint a Senior Network Technician, to take the lead on all network connectivity both in our on-premise Data Centre and increasingly in our Microsoft Azure cloud tenancy. You will work as part of a small team alongside system administrators and will be responsible for managing the University’s Application Delivery Controller, Firewall, Routing & Switching and VPN configurations.

The University manages several hundred servers in it’s on-premises Data Centre and provides a very robust infrastructure with high levels of resilience and availability. We have an increasing footprint within our Azure tenancy and need to replicate the same levels of resilience and security in the cloud.

A background working with F5, Fortinet and Azure is an advantage, but good knowledge of routing & switching, and proven in-depth experience of working with other vendors solutions would be welcomed.

Ideally educated to degree level with a commitment to continuing professional development you will be able to develop network solutions to evolving requirements.

Please note, where appropriate, additional salary may be applied for a specialist skillset.
