At Voyage Care, technology isn’t just infrastructure — it’s critical to delivering safe, effective care to thousands of people across the UK.
We’re looking for an IT Networking Team Leader to take ownership of a large, complex, multi‑site network estate and lead a skilled team through an exciting period of investment, modernisation, and cloud growth.
If you’re a hands‑on technical leader who thrives on ownership, impact, and solving real‑world challenges, this is your opportunity to make a difference.
Why This Role Stands Out
- Enterprise‑scale impact – Support hundreds of UK‑wide services
- Transformation journey – Cloud maturity, automation, and security programmes underway
- Autonomy to shape delivery – Influence strategy and execution within your domain
- Meaningful work – Your network directly supports frontline care delivery
What You’ll Be Doing
Lead & Inspire
- Manage and develop a high‑performing Network Operations team
- Create a culture of continuous improvement, ownership, and collaboration
Own the Network Estate
- Take full responsibility for a large‑scale Cisco Meraki environment (MX, MS, MR)
- Drive performance, resilience, and scalability across all services
- Lead network upgrades, deployments, and lifecycle management
Deliver Modern Connectivity
- Shape and support hybrid cloud networking in Azure
- Oversee WAN, LAN, VPN, SD‑WAN, and wireless environments
- Ensure seamless connectivity across a geographically distributed estate
- Introduce and expand automation (PowerShell / Python)
- Reduce manual effort and improve operational consistency
- Move towards infrastructure‑as‑code principles
Strengthen Security & Compliance
- Work closely with security teams on Cyber Essentials Plus & ISO 27001
- Oversee firewalls, IDS/IPS, segmentation, and secure access controls
- Support audits, risk management, and incident response
Lead Key Projects
- Own technical delivery of network projects including:
- Connectivity transformations
- Telephony rollouts (VoIP/SIP)
What You’ll Bring
- Strong leadership experience managing technical teams
- Proven background in enterprise networking (multi‑site environments)
- Deep expertise in Cisco Meraki (essential)
- Experience with Azure networking and hybrid environments
- Solid knowledge of network security, SD‑WAN, VPNs, and routing/switching
- Exposure to automation tools and scripting
- Ability to deliver complex infrastructure projects end‑to‑end
Certifications such as CCNP, Meraki, or Azure Network Engineer are a bonus — but practical experience matters most.
