Southampton 3 days per week + Travel (fully paid and abroad)

Fancy a great contract involving luxury travel included?! This is contract role for a network engineer with strong expertise in NAC (Network Access Controls) with experience of deploying Cisco ISE or Aruba Clear Pass for a cruise company.

A major Network Access Control rollout is underway across ship and shore environments, and this is a chance to step in as the technical lead driving it forward. You’ll act as the SME for Cisco ISE and or Aruba Clear Pass, owning the design, deployment on board cruise ships and operational performance of the NAC environment while delivering to tight timelines.

This is a hands on role. You’ll configure, integrate, test and troubleshoot complex solutions, act as the escalation point for NAC issues, and identify risks and improvement opportunities. You’ll also collaborate with internal teams and vendors, while mentoring engineers to raise overall capability.

Strong enterprise NAC delivery experience is essential, alongside deep knowledge of Cisco ISE and or Aruba Clear Pass. You’ll understand 802.1X, MAB, RADIUS, EAP, certificate based authentication, guest and BYOD workflows, and integration across wired, wireless, firewall and identity platforms.

This would be Southampton to install knowledge to the team 3 days per week, and travel on board a cruise ship (fully paid for) likely 1 week or 2 weeks every 6-8 weeks.
