Senior Network Engineer - Up to £60k Salary - Hybrid working across Shrewsbury & Telford
We’re looking for an experienced Senior Network Engineer to join a large, complex enterprise environment, taking technical ownership across networking, security and telephony infrastructure.
This is a genuine hands-on senior engineering role combining technical leadership, architecture and project ownership with day-to-day engineering. You’ll have support from junior colleagues, but we’re looking for someone who is comfortable getting into the detail — personally configuring hardware, troubleshooting complex technical issues and independently taking projects from discovery through to successful delivery.
You’ll act as a senior technical authority across the network and telephony estate, identifying issues and designing practical solutions across enterprise LAN, WAN, security and voice environments.
You’ll independently lead multiple network and telephony projects through to completion, taking ownership of technical design, configuration, implementation and troubleshooting while carefully managing deployment risks within a high-consequence clinical environment.
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.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Alongside remaining hands-on, you’ll provide technical leadership to junior engineers, delegate and manage technical tasks, and help upskill permanent members of the team throughout migrations and infrastructure changes.
Technical experience we're looking for:
This role requires recent, hands-on configuration and design experience across the following technologies:
- Networking & NAC: Aruba Networking, Aruba ClearPass and FreeRADIUS
- Firewalls & Security: Cisco and Fortinet/FortiGate firewalls
- Voice & Telephony: Mitel VoIP systems, including physical handsets and softphones, alongside Netcall solutions
- Strong enterprise networking knowledge across LAN and WAN environments
- Experience troubleshooting complex network, security and telephony issues
- Proven ability to independently design and implement infrastructure solutions
- Experience leading technical projects and managing deployment risks
- Ability to mentor and provide technical direction to less experienced engineers

What we're looking for:
This position would suit a Senior Network Engineer who enjoys being given genuine ownership rather than simply maintaining an existing environment.
You should be comfortable moving between technical strategy, architecture and hands-on engineering, with the ability to uncover problems, determine the right solution and then personally drive that solution through to implementation.
We’re particularly interested in engineers who have worked within large, complex or highly regulated environments, where resilience, change management and minimising operational risk are critical.
