#Referment

## Description

Referment is working with a regulated European stock exchange operator based in the City of London. Its small, expert Network team is expanding and is looking for a Network Engineer to support, shape, optimise and scale a low-latency trading network that spans cloud and on-premises environments.
The RoleYou'll split your time between daily operations and project work. On the operational side, you'll run daily checks of the network and security infrastructure, investigate faults using logs, monitoring tools and packet captures, and support the live trading platforms during market hours. You'll manage client onboarding, access requests and decommissioning, liaise with telecoms providers on leased lines and circuits, and support and validate planned network and security changes. You'll also maintain high-quality documentation of the infrastructure and participate in incident investigation and root-cause analysis.
There's room to take on increasing responsibility for project-based delivery as your experience develops. You'll work a shift rota covering 06:30-18:30, with occasional weekend and Bank Holiday cover and occasional data centre visits in West and East London.
