6How you'll be judged

The scoreboard, and what is not on it. The hard targets, how often each is actually looked at, and the quiet signals that never reach a dashboard.

Global Network Availability
Uptime of critical network infrastructure across all regions (cloud and on-premise).
Target · Achieve 99.999% ('five nines') availability for core services.

Maintaining 99.999% uptime means under 5 minutes 15 seconds of downtime annually. Hitting 99.99% (52 minutes downtime) means millions in lost revenue and reputational damage.

Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) Reduction
Optimising global network spend (carrier contracts, hardware, software licences, OpEx) while improving capability.
Target · Reduce annual global network TCO by 8-12% (£10M-£15M+) over 3 years.

Negotiating new global carrier contracts and migrating 70% of legacy MPLS circuits to SD-WAN, saving £12M in OpEx this year without compromising performance.

Mean Time to Recovery (MTTR) for P1 Incidents
Average time to restore service after a critical (P1) network incident.
Target · Reduce average MTTR for P1 incidents from 60 minutes to under 30 minutes.

After a major DDoS attack on our European data centre, the network team restored full service in 28 minutes, compared to the previous average of 75 minutes.

Strategic Programme Execution Rate
Successful delivery of major network transformation programmes (e.g., multi-cloud connectivity, global SASE rollout) on time and within budget.
Target · Achieve 95% on-time and on-budget completion for all board-approved network strategic programmes.

The global Zero Trust Network Architecture (ZTNA) rollout, a 2-year programme with a £20M budget, completed 3 weeks ahead of schedule and £1M under budget, enhancing security.

Board Confidence & Investor Perception
Trust and confidence the Board and investors have in our network strategy, resilience, and security posture.
  • Positive feedback from board members on network presentations
  • strategy cited as competitive advantage in investor calls
  • proactive engagement from investors on infrastructure resilience
  • no unexpected network-related questions from the board.

  • strong internal promotion rates
  • positive feedback in employee engagement surveys
  • reputation as an employer of choice for network professionals.

7Would you like it

Both sides. What people enjoy, and what grinds them down.

What people enjoy
Shaping Enterprise Strategy

You'll spend a good chunk of your week in strategic planning sessions with the CEO and other C-suite leaders, influencing the company's direction. This isn't just about 'having a seat at the table'; it's about actively drawing up the blueprints for our future growth.

Leading the discussion on how our global network architecture enables entry into emerging markets, or how it supports a major M&A integration.

Driving Global Transformation

You get a real buzz from seeing large-scale, multi-year programmes come to fruition – like a global SASE rollout or a complete cloud migration – knowing these changes fundamentally transform how the company operates and competes.

Successfully overseeing the completion of a £50M global network modernisation programme that reduces operational costs by 15% and improves security posture dramatically.

Leading and Developing World-Class Talent

You thrive on building and mentoring a diverse, high-performing global team of network leaders and engineers. Seeing your direct reports grow into broader leadership roles and knowing you've fostered a culture of excellence is a huge win for you.

Implementing a new leadership development programme for your Directors, resulting in two of them being promoted to VP roles within 18 months.

What frustrates people
  • The constant pressure to justify multi-million-pound investments in 'invisible' infrastructure that, when working perfectly, goes unnoticed by the business.
  • Navigating complex geopolitical landscapes and regulatory changes that impact global network design and data sovereignty, often with conflicting requirements.
  • The inevitable 3 AM calls for P1 incidents, even at this level, because ultimately, the buck stops with you when the network is down anywhere in the world.
  • Managing the tension between aggressive cost-cutting targets from Finance and the need for resilient, high-performance, secure infrastructure from Operations and Security.
  • Dealing with legacy systems or technical debt that requires significant political capital and budget to address, often after years of neglect.
What this role does not give you
  • Daily hands-on technical configuration or troubleshooting.
  • A quiet, predictable work schedule; expect global time zone challenges and crisis management.
  • The ability to avoid public speaking or high-stakes presentations to the Board and investors.
  • A role where you can avoid complex financial modelling and multi-million-pound budget accountability.

Working with AI on the job

Working with AI

Where AI is starting to help

Even at the C-suite, AI isn't just a buzzword; it's a strategic partner enhancing your effectiveness. Imagine more time for high-level strategy, board engagement, and talent development because AI handles data synthesis and communication drafting. It augments your judgment.

You'll lead AI adoption to transform our global network organisation. Our AI Productivity Hub provides tools and best practices streamlining predictive analytics to executive reporting, making your strategic impact even greater.

Predictive Outage Detection (AIOps)

AI analyses vast network telemetry data to predict potential link saturations or hardware failures before they cause an outage. This allows proactive issue addressing, reducing critical incidents and improving global availability. For you, it means fewer 3 AM calls and more predictable operations.

Intelligent Strategic Traffic Analysis

AI ingests global NetFlow and application performance data to automatically identify strategic traffic patterns, pinpoint bandwidth-hogging applications across continents, and suggest optimal QoS policy changes or network path optimisations. This replaces hours of manual data sifting, giving immediate, actionable insights for multi-million-pound capacity planning and carrier negotiations.

Enterprise Risk & Vendor Research Assistant

Use an AI assistant to summarise the latest critical vulnerabilities (CVEs) from major network vendors, assess their specific impact on our deployed global hardware models, and rapidly draft initial remediation strategies or risk assessments for the CISO and Board. This significantly accelerates our response to emerging threats.

Executive & Investor Comms Drafting

AI helps draft clear, concise incident reports for the CEO and Board, translates complex technical root cause analyses into impactful business statements for investors, and assists in building compelling multi-million-pound budget justification narratives. This frees up your time from drafting to refining and strategising.
