A fast-growing fibre network provider is looking for a Network Support Engineer to join their expanding NOC team. They’re building out an all-star network team and need someone who’s passionate about customer service, technically sharp, and ready to thrive in a fast-paced service provider environment. If you’re early in your networking career and want exposure to real WAN, VoIP, and managed LAN environments, this is the kind of role that builds your CV properly.

*Hybrid working, Tuesday and Thursday from home
*Private healthcare
*Childcare vouchers

*Additional time off for moving house etc- doesn’t come off your annual leave
*Rewards and discount portal
*Join a business at the cutting edge of full-fibre infrastructure during a period of rapid national expansion
Key Skills & Experience:
*Experience providing technical support in a service desk or NOC environment
*Strong troubleshooting skills with the ability to manage multiple open incidents at once
*Experience with ticketing systems such as Salesforce, Zendesk or Remedy
*Ideally CompTIA A+, Network+ or CWNA certified, or actively working towards it
Desirable:

The Role:
You’ll be the first point of contact for customers and partners raising connectivity faults and service requests, making sure everything is resolved within SLA and that every interaction is clearly documented in the ticketing system.
On a typical day you’ll be monitoring network and customer assets, responding to alerts, troubleshooting WAN and VoIP issues, and handling basic LAN, WLAN and firewall queries, keeping customers informed throughout.
When things escalate, you’ll coordinate with internal teams and third-party suppliers to drive resolution, and you’ll be producing outage reports and maintenance notifications as part of the job.
Beyond the reactive work, you’ll contribute to the team knowledge base and help maintain the high service standards the business is built on. This is a role where good communication matters just as much as technical ability, customers need to feel looked after, not just fixed.
