Are you an aspiring Network Engineer with around 1 year of experience, CCNA-level knowledge, and the drive to break into a high-performance technical environment? We’re hiring a Network Support Engineer to join a world-class Network Operations team at a leading high-frequency trading firm in Central London.

This is an exceptional opportunity for a hungry, motivated, and technically curious individual who wants to apply real networking concepts to real-world problems — and learn fast in a demanding, elite setting.

What You’ll Be Doing

As part of the Network Operations team, you’ll work closely with the Network Engineers and other infrastructure teams, helping to monitor and support a low-latency global network.

You will:

• Monitor the health of the network and security infrastructure
• React to alerts, troubleshoot Level 1 support issues
• Investigate hardware/software faults and liaise with vendors (Cisco, Arista, Fortinet, etc.)
• Support WAN and connectivity troubleshooting
• Perform regular network audits and compliance checks
• Get hands-on with firewalls, switching, and enterprise technologies

Technology Environment

You’ll be exposed to:

• Switching & Routing (basic config & support)
• Firewalls: Cisco, Fortinet, Checkpoint, F5
• Vendors: Cisco, Arista, and more
• Monitoring & analysis tools in a high-performance, always-on environment

What We’re Looking For

• Around 1 year of experience in a support or networking role
• Currently studying for or holding CCNA / Network+ or relevant university degree
• Strong interest in networking and solving real technical challenges
• Excellent problem-solving skills and a structured mindset
• Organised, proactive, and eager to learn — automation experience not needed, just the right attitude
• A genuine passion for networks and infrastructure

The Offer

• £35,000 per annum
• 3 days a week onsite at a state-of-the-art office
• Opportunity to learn from top-tier engineers in network operations, datacentres, and infrastructure
• A route into financial services-level networking, with career development and growth

If you’re looking to make your mark in networking — and want to prove your technical skills and hunger to grow — this is the perfect first or second step.
