This hybrid role offers a great balance of home and office working. You’ll join your colleagues in your local office at least 2 days a week.


As the UK’s largest fibre-only network, and its only proven wholesale challenger, we’re busy setting new standards for what digital infrastructure can and should be.

  • Managing onboarding with the Network Operations Centre (NOC)
  • Overseeing site updates in the Asset Management Solution
  • Coordinating with supply partners to deliver integration works
  • Managing key vendor relationships and ensuring compliance with CityFibre standards

  • 18th Edition BS7671 certification (essential)
  • Experience in vendor management and infrastructure auditing
  • Strong knowledge of mechanical and electrical datacentre design and operation
  • Familiarity with regulatory compliance and asset management systems
