Who we are:
Established in 1999, Modern Networks are the leading specialist provider of managed IT and Telecoms services to the specific sector markets. This role sits within our independent Internet Service Provider (ISP) and work with customers all over the UK providing a range of IT, connectivity, telephony and security services. As a group, we have businesses who provide services to science parks, commercial property, Small to Medium Enterprises (SMEs), and education.

The Role:
This role sits within our Support team, servicing our ISP & Science Park customers.

Alongside day-to-day support, you will on occasion also contribute to delivery activities such as equipment pre-staging, on-site turn-ups, change windows and upgrades. This role requires occasional travel across the UK and the ability to respond quickly to critical incidents.

* An escalation-capable service desk engineer handling tickets end-to-end: log, prioritise, diagnose, resolve or escalate in line with SLAs.
* Ability to troubleshoot connectivity issues across WAN/LAN/WLAN, customer CPE, and campus edge infrastructure using structured fault-finding.
* Perform standard configuration changes under approved work instructions and change control (e.g., VLANs, DHCP/DNS, firewall policy adjustments).
* Respond to monitoring alerts; identify service-impacting events and proactively raise and manage incidents.
* Drivers with UK Licence and access to own vehicle.
