  • Liaising with Third party suppliers.
  • Creating and managing a network roadmap.
  • Working closely with other NUIT departments such as Cyber Security, Platforms & Services and Datacentre Operations to ensure smooth delivery of services which depend on the network.
  • Overseeing NUIT's network budget, allocating resources and reporting on expenditure.

About you
We seek an IT professional with a broad understanding of IT services and technical environments. To succeed in this role, you should possess:

  • Strong people management skills and experience of managing a team of network engineers.
  • Previous experience managing large campus networks across multiple sites.
  • An ability to manage several competing priorities and deliver on time and within budget.
  • Previous experience delivering a large network replacement.

If this sounds like you, we invite you to apply by submitting a 2-page CV and a 1-page covering letter. Your application should outline examples where your knowledge, skills, and experience align with the job description.

The University values hybrid working. This approach is flexible, informal, tailored to each team, and founded on trust.
