- Act as the primary contact for network and site initiatives such as new builds, expansions, upgrades and security programs
- Partner with operations, architects, PMO and vendors to deliver fit‑for‑purpose, strategically aligned solutions
- Own financial management for initiatives, including budgeting, cost estimates and vendor quotations
- Oversee the stability and performance of network and site technology across a large, distributed environment
About You:
You combine a strong networking foundation with a collaborative leadership style, enabling you to lead people, influence stakeholders, engage vendors and senior leaders, and guide teams toward shared outcomes.
You can demonstrate:
- 5+ years with hands-on senior network engineering experience with leadership responsibility
