Job description Flexible Working: We support a range of full time and compressed hours working patterns. However, part time and job sharing are not available. The role is office based only and home working or remote working is not possible due to the nature of the role. The role is UK based, with infrequent, short-term overseas travel, subject to business needs. About Us We are MI6, also known as the Secret Intelligence Service (SIS). Our mission is to protect the security and economic wellbeing of the UK from overseas threats such as regional instability, terrorism, and cyber-attacks. Working across the globe and in close partnership with MI5 and GCHQ, we help the Government to counter these threats through the provision of secret intelligence. A role in MI6 will see you providing vital support to this work, within a supportive and encouraging environment that puts the emphasis on teamwork. The Role You will be joining a team of network and infrastructure engineers, which sits within our Infrastructure profession. As a network engineer you will design, build, deploy, manage and troubleshoot Layer 2 and Layer 3 networks and network services across our global platform. That could mean tackling large-scale enterprise deployments over several months, fulfilling short-term niche requirements or developing the next generation security systems that support our cyber operations. It all adds up to a varied role where you will develop your technical skills, enhance your troubleshooting skills and work with colleagues, customers and partners in industry and other Government departments. You will give us a crucial edge in a rapidly changing, data-driven world, and there is even the possibility of working overseas. Although this role is UK-based, your skills may sometimes be required overseas for short periods, subject to business needs. While the role is office based (during normal working hours) you will benefit from being part of an encouraging team where you will be fully supported to own your personal and professional development. There are no line management responsibilities in this role. About You You will need to demonstrate that you have either worked in a network engineering role in the past, or that you have built up experience in industry during a degree programme. Ideally, you could have around 18 months or more experience in first or second line network support within enterprise environments. You might also hold a University degree in a computer science/systems/networks or related subject. You are the type of person that relishes solving problems and is willing to experiment to find a solution in this fast-paced environment. You will be excited about technology, new capabilities and the opportunities they present, but what is really important is clear communication, a desire to learn and share knowledge, and the ability to build strong relationships with teams, customers and stakeholders. With a solid sense of responsibility for the country's security, you will be proud to use your skills to help safeguard the nation. Your Technical Skills The set of essential skills we use is varied and constantly growing. You will need to be able to demonstrate experience with networking and you are preferably Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) or another vendor certified (e.g. CompTIA Network+), or working towards certification. The essential skills are knowledge and experience of: o Layer 2 including VLANs and STP o Layer 3 including IP addressing, subnetting and OSPF o Network services including NTP, DHCP, DNS and NAT o Network security including firewalls, VPNs, GRE/IPsec and ACLs o Networking management tools and applications And desirable skills/attributes are an awareness or experience of: o DNA Centre, automation and network programmability o Windows (with Active Directory) and Linux operating systems o Virtualisation including VMware o Cloud technologies including Amazon Web Services (AWS) Training and Development Recognising the skills and abilities of our staff now and as they progress through their careers is central to our culture. Your personal growth is paramount to your development in the team and we support this with a personalised induction and training plan. We actively encourage you to undertake internal and external training courses, gaining professional certifications, which will be coupled with on-the-job training and dedicated personal development time. We currently have engineers studying for university and professional certifications including Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP) and RedHat System Administrator (RHCSA). Rewards and Benefits You will receive a starting salary of £42,064 with the opportunity to qualify for an annual technical skills payment of £6,500 depending on your skills, knowledge, experience and performance, which could become payable after 12 months in the role. Other benefits include: • 25 Days Annual Leave automatically rising to 30 days after 5 years' service, and an additional 10.5 days for public and privilege holidays • Opportunities to be recognised through our employee performance scheme • Opportunities to work flexibly, subject to business needs • Interest-free season ticket loan • Excellent pension scheme • Cycle to work scheme • Facilities such as a subsidised gym and restaurant and on-site coffee bars • Paid parental and adoption leave Equal Opportunities At MI6, diversity and inclusion are critical to our mission. To protect the UK, we need a truly diverse workforce that reflects the society we serve.

Job description Flexible Working: We support a range of full time and compressed hours working patterns. However, part time and job sharing are not available. The role is office based only and home working or remote working is not possible due to the nature of the role. The role is UK based, with infrequent, short-term overseas travel, subject to business needs. About Us We are MI6, also known as the Secret Intelligence Service (SIS). Our mission is to protect the security and economic wellbeing of the UK from overseas threats such as regional instability, terrorism, and cyber-attacks.

The Role You will be joining a team of network and infrastructure engineers, which sits within our Infrastructure profession. As a network engineer you will design, build, deploy, manage and troubleshoot Layer 2 and Layer 3 networks and network services across our global platform.

You are the type of person that relishes solving problems and is willing to experiment to find a solution in this fast-paced environment. You will be excited about technology, new capabilities and the opportunities they present, but what is really important is clear communication, a desire to learn and share knowledge, and the ability to build strong relationships with teams, customers and stakeholders. With a solid sense of responsibility for the country's security, you will be proud to use your skills to help safeguard the nation. Your Technical Skills The set of essential skills we use is varied and constantly growing. You will need to be able to demonstrate experience with networking and you are preferably Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) or another vendor certified (e.g. CompTIA Network+), or working towards certification. The essential skills are knowledge and experience of: o Layer 2 including VLANs and STP o Layer 3 including IP addressing, subnetting and OSPF o Network services including NTP, DHCP, DNS and NAT o Network security including firewalls, VPNs, GRE/IPsec and ACLs o Networking management tools and applications And desirable skills/attributes are an awareness or experience of: o DNA Centre, automation and network programmability o Windows (with Active Directory) and Linux operating systems o Virtualisation including VMware o Cloud technologies including Amazon Web Services (AWS) Training and Development Recognising the skills and abilities of our staff now and as they progress through their careers is central to our culture. Your personal growth is paramount to your development in the team and we support this with a personalised induction and training plan. We actively encourage you to undertake internal and external training courses, gaining professional certifications, which will be coupled with on-the-job training and dedicated personal development time. We currently have engineers studying for university and professional certifications including Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP) and RedHat System Administrator (RHCSA). Rewards and Benefits You will receive a starting salary of £42,064 with the opportunity to qualify for an annual technical skills payment of £6,500 depending on your skills, knowledge, experience and performance, which could become payable after 12 months in the role. Other benefits include: • 25 Days Annual Leave automatically rising to 30 days after 5 years' service, and an additional 10.5 days for public and privilege holidays • Opportunities to be recognised through our employee performance scheme • Opportunities to work flexibly, subject to business needs • Interest-free season ticket loan • Excellent pension scheme • Cycle to work scheme • Facilities such as a subsidised gym and restaurant and on-site coffee bars • Paid parental and adoption leave Equal Opportunities At MI6, diversity and inclusion are critical to our mission.
