Job description

Wanstor is an award-winning Managed IT Services provider helping ambitious organisations use technology to achieve better business outcomes — securely, efficiently, and at scale. Established in 2002, we deliver end-to-end technology services spanning managed IT support, cloud, infrastructure, networking, security, communications, and AI adoption services. Our approach is built around three core principles: **Experience First** – delivering proactive, seamless technology experiences that reduce friction and help customers stay productive. **AI Fluent** – embracing AI within our own services while helping customers confidently adopt intelligent automation and AI-driven ways of working. **Secure by Default** – embedding security and resilience into everything we design, deliver, and support. At Wanstor, our people are our greatest strength. We combine technical expertise with a service-first mindset, creating an environment where talented individuals can grow, collaborate, and make a meaningful impact for our customers. We’re proud of the careers people build here. Across the business, there are many examples of colleagues progressing into new roles, expanding their skills, and building long-term careers at Wanstor. We’re committed to creating an environment where people are supported to develop, grow, and succeed. We're looking for a Network Architect to join our growing Networking team at Wanstor. This is a hands-on architecture role, combining customer solution design, technical leadership and implementation across a diverse range of customer environments. You'll play a key role in shaping secure, scalable and resilient network solutions, working closely with customers from initial design through to delivery. As a senior member of the team, you'll act as a technical authority for networking technologies, supporting complex projects, contributing to presales activities and providing guidance to engineers across the business. The role offers exposure to a broad range of networking and security technologies, with a particular focus on modern network architectures, SD-WAN and the Fortinet ecosystem. Experience with FortiGate is highly desirable, whilst exposure to technologies such as ZTNA, CASB and threat protection would be advantageous, though not essential. If you enjoy solving complex networking challenges, influencing technical direction and remaining close to the technology, this is an opportunity to make a significant impact within an award-winning MSP supporting a wide range of customers across the UK.
