Network Security Recruitment

Network security engineering covers firewall architecture, network segmentation, intrusion detection, and increasingly zero-trust network access. We place engineers and architects across enterprise, financial services, and critical infrastructure environments.

The market

The shift from perimeter-based to zero-trust network security models is driving a skills transition in the market. Engineers with legacy firewall experience need to develop ZTNA and microsegmentation capabilities. The most valuable candidates bridge both — they understand traditional network architecture and can translate that into modern security frameworks. Senior network security architects with cloud-network experience are in particularly short supply.

Roles we recruit

• Network Security Engineer
• Firewall Engineer
• ZTNA Architect
• Network Security Analyst
• Network Security Architect
• SD-WAN Security Engineer
• Intrusion Detection Specialist
• Network Security Manager

Experience and skills

Network security professionals typically develop from networking backgrounds (CCNA/CCNP) and build security specialisation over time. The best have deep firewall vendor experience (Palo Alto, Fortinet, Check Point) combined with a security mindset that goes beyond configuration to threat modelling and defence architecture.

• Palo Alto / Fortinet / Check Point
• Cisco CCNP Security or equivalent
• Network Segmentation & Microsegmentation
• Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA)
• IDS / IPS Configuration & Tuning
