We're looking for a senior, hands-on technical leader to own design assurance, implementation and delivery governance across our enterprise secure access and endpoint management platforms. The core stack is Cisco Secure Access, Microsoft Intune and ManageEngine Endpoint Central.

What you'll do

• Assess current secure access, endpoint and identity environments. Validate high-level and low-level designs, and challenge vendor approaches where needed.
  
• Turn approved architecture into execution plans covering work packages, deployment waves, cutover and rollback, test plans, and go/no-go criteria.
  
• Lead Cisco Secure Access delivery, including SIA, SWG, ZTNA, SPA, Secure Client, Resource Connectors, and IPsec/VPN. Troubleshoot connectivity, routing, DNS, policy and authentication issues.
  
• Oversee Intune, covering enrolment, app deployment, compliance, configuration profiles, security baselines, MDM/MAM and Conditional Access. Oversee Endpoint Central packaging and deployment reliability too.
  
• Own end-to-end testing and technical acceptance: connectivity, authentication, failover, pilots and operational readiness.
  
• Run change management through CAB, plus hypercare and a smooth handover into BAU, with runbooks, SOPs, monitoring and as-built documentation.
  
• Act as the main technical liaison with managed service providers and hold vendors to quality, incident resolution and documentation standards.
  

What you'll bring

• 8+ years in enterprise networking, security or infrastructure, with deep hands-on Cisco expertise.
  
• CCIE or equivalent senior-level Cisco expertise.
  
• Proven delivery of Cisco Secure Access implementations and endpoint modernisation projects, from assessment through to BAU.
  
• Strong identity and access skills: Entra ID, Active Directory, SAML, SSO, MFA and certificate-based authentication.
  
• Solid networking and security grounding: routing, firewalls, DNS, PKI and secure remote access.
  
• PowerShell, log analysis and strong root-cause troubleshooting.
  
• Experience governing managed service providers and coordinating cross-functional teams.
  
• Matric plus a relevant IT, Computer Science or Engineering qualification.
  

Advantageous

• Cisco Security, SASE or Zero Trust certifications.
  
• Microsoft Intune, Security or Identity certifications.
  
• ITIL Foundation or higher.
  
• Experience in large or highly regulated enterprise environments.
