Network Team Lead / Network Manager - Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane
Own the network strategy, architecture, service design and delivery quality of the MSP's networking practice across a multi-tenant client base.
The role is accountable for a standardised, secure, automatable networking fabric that spans campus, data centre, cloud and edge — delivered as repeatable managed services with predictable margin and measurable service outcomes. This is a leadership role blending technical authority, team development and commercial ownership.
You will set the reference architectures, govern the vendor stack, mature automation and observability, and ensure the networking practice scales without scaling headcount linearly. The escalation point of last resort for major network incidents and the design authority for complex.
This role can be performed from either Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane.
Requirements
- Substantial experience in enterprise or service-provider networking, including a demonstrable leadership or design-authority role — ideally within an MSP or multi-tenant environment
- Deep, current expertise across secure networking (SASE/SD-WAN/ZTNA), campus, data centre and cloud networking
- Proven track record designing and operating multi-tenant managed network services at scale
- Strong grounding in network automation and infrastructure-as-code, with a genuine bias toward standardisation over bespoke work
- Demonstrated ownership of major-incident response and service-quality outcomes against SLAs
Responsibilities
- Drive the strategy for the network platform
- Review current MPLS platform, network architecture and risk register
- Review and analyse existing network roadmap, and in consultation with major stakeholders, design, architect and implement the next generation network.
- Lead a network automation transformation for the business to improve efficiency, time to value for our clients and reduce risk.
- Conduct capacity planning including but not limited to organic and exceptional growth
- Participate in pre-sales activities including timely provision of appropriate solutions to defined client opportunities
