About the role
Contract details
- Initial term: 2-3 months
- Location: fully remote
- Start: May
- Reporting into: IT Manager
- Team: small - you’ll need to be comfortable operating independently

- Implementing agreed remediation and validating outcomes
- Strong hands-on FortiGate firewall experience (must-have)
- Strong Aruba switching experience (must-have)
- Proven ability to work autonomously and make progress without heavy oversight

- Wellbeing Discovery Sessions
- Welcome Packs
- Hnry discount
- Exclusive invites to events and networking
- Optional pay-as-you-go PI/PL insurance
