With the latest in IP network technology, we can do more for London
As technology evolves, we’re making the most of advances to fight crime and protect London. As a Network Integration Supervisor, you’ll play your part by developing innovative IP network solutions for our front line officers. It’s a chance to make a direct impact on the success of operations as part of a dedicated team of engineering specialists.
Our Operational Support Unit (OSU) provides officers with technical solutions such as CCTV surveillance of major events, operational control room installations and encrypted communications systems. As part of this small but critical team, you’ll focus on delivering IP networks for Met operations.
With proven experience of working with switching, routing, firewalls and VPN technologies (or with an equivalent qualification), you’ll be a confident professional who communicates clearly. You’ll draw on knowledge of IP network technologies, surveillance and RF transmission, and hardware and software development, plus expertise in network security, monitoring and troubleshooting.
While technical skills are crucial, you’ll need to be organised and flexible too, as some projects could happen in challenging environments, outside office hours. Please note that a full driving licence is essential.
