Join to apply for the Head of Network Operations role at The Stephenworks
Head of Technical Support / Network Operations
Remote working
Salary - Circa £75,000 / £80,000 with 20% bonus
We're looking to bring in a head of technical network operations, and this role will sit above the escalated technology teams who look after the 2nd and 3rd line issues for this ISP.
These tend to be major incidents, and you'll be final point of contact when it comes to incident management such as customer issues / outages but then also implementing process and efficiencies to address the cause of the problem and ensure that similar issues don't happen moving forward, either internally or through the supply chain.
It's an ITIL environment so we'd be looking for standards to be in line with this and most of the issues will be network based, hence the NOC aspect of the role however, you will be also looking after a range of infrastructure solutions so the role is relatively all round.
This is a management position rather than technical, but you will need to come in from that technical service provider environment (Telecoms, ISP or MSP) and the best background would likely be from the normal Cisco / Juniper / Nokia style network environment and most of the issues will involve IP, MPLS, BGP, OSPF etc.
The environment continues to scale and it's a mixed internal support and external partner setup. We touched on the word scale, but we are looking to do that in the most efficient way possible so that is going to mean automation, continuous improvement, playing your part in research and development - new ideas, apps and tools that might be coming to market.
Recruitment, alongside coaching and development of existing engineering staff needs to be a key point and the role is on a national basis, so you'll be working from home for the vast majority of the time, with occasional travel to meetings.
Package as standard includes bonus, private health, life assurance, enhanced pension etc.
