Job description

PROJECT ENGINEER – IT INFRASTRUCTURE & NETWORKING

KEY POINTS

• Salary up to £45,000
• Hands‑on infrastructure projects across servers, storage, networking, wireless & security
• Varied customer sites across the UK – regular travel and overnight stays are part of the role

ABOUT THE CLIENT

We’re working with an established technology business delivering infrastructure solutions to customers across the UK.

They’re looking for an experienced Project Engineer who wants more than sitting behind the same desk every day. You’ll be getting hands‑on with customer projects, seeing different environments and taking responsibility for delivering infrastructure solutions from design and scoping through to implementation.

A bit of honesty upfront – this role does involve UK travel and staying away from home when projects require it. If you’re looking for a predominantly home‑based position, this won’t be the right move. If you enjoy being out on‑site, meeting customers and actually getting your hands on the technology, there’s plenty of variety here.

THE BENEFITS

• Salary up to £45,000
• Genuine variety across different customer environments
• Broad infrastructure, networking and security exposure
• Ownership of projects from scoping through to delivery
• Mix of technical consultancy and hands‑on implementation
• Opportunity to expand your experience across multiple technologies

THE PROJECT ENGINEER ROLE

You’ll deliver IT infrastructure projects both remotely and on customer sites across the UK.

That means installing and configuring server, storage, networking, wireless and security solutions, alongside carrying out technical audits, site surveys and consultancy work.

You’ll also contribute to technical pre-sales, produce design documentation and act as a senior technical escalation point when required.

It’s a role for somebody who enjoys doing – understanding the requirement, working out the solution and then getting on‑site to deliver it.

And yes, there will be overnight stays. We’d rather make that crystal clear from day one. In return, you’re getting a role with considerably more variety than working on the same infrastructure every day.
