Network Consultant
Cisco-led all-rounder, London project delivery, up to £75,000
£75,000 + £2,000 Bonus | London / Hybrid | UK Wide Projects
Our client is a well-established network consultancy with a strong Cisco heritage and a growing multi-vendor practice. They're looking for a Network Consultant to join the delivery team — someone who can hit the ground running on enterprise projects, represent the business confidently on customer sites, and work across a broad stack without needing hand-holding.
Cisco is the primary vendor but this isn't a one-platform role. Aruba, Palo Alto, and Fortinet all feature regularly. Design, delivery, wireless, firewalls, infrastructure — you need to be comfortable across all of it. London-accessible is key; the majority of project work is in and around the capital.
WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING
- Lead and deliver enterprise network projects across a multi-vendor environment — LLD through to full implementation (80% of the role)
- Produce Low-Level Designs across routing, switching, wireless, and firewall disciplines
- Represent the business on customer sites — professional, confident, and technically credible
- Support pre-sales engagements — scoping, technical input, and customer conversations (10%)
- Act as SME escalation point and participate in a low-volume on-call rota — 1 in 5 rotation, paid additionally (10%)
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
