The Role:
As the Head of OT Network Services, you will oversee the design, delivery, and ongoing management of highly resilient OT network environments.

- Stay ahead of emerging technologies and lead their evaluation and integration into future network platforms.
- Oversee the selection and implementation of next-generation network solutions to support organisational growth.
