Join to apply for the SC cleared Network Test Manager - Inside IR role at Opplæringskontoret for Offshore fag

An SC cleared Network Test Manager is required to work with our customer to scope testing requirements for the primary network and manage the tests with the TDAs, service, security, and test assurance teams. This is a hybrid role with 2 days on site in Southampton and is inside IR35 so will require working via an FCSA umbrella company.

The main testing areas that need to be scoped and managed are:

  1. Security Testing - Review the vulnerability of the network, and review configuration of sample devices against CIS Benchmarks and NATS security policies.
  2. Penetration Testing - NATS will be using a 3rd party to pen test the network. BT will provide a pen test lead to support the scoping, execution and managing of remediations. This will be a separate resource to the overall Test Lead.
  3. Network Failover Testing - Tests will be based on failure modes as identified in the FMEA (Failure Modes and Effects Analysis) documents for the primary network.
  4. Performance Testing - BT will need to scope how to performance test the primary network and agree levels of performance testing.
  5. Functional Testing - Tests will be based on the configuration items within the service description. It will test the provisioning processes and the technology.
  6. Service Level Testing - Testing will be based on measuring service level performance against the service levels agreed in the contract.
  7. Disaster Recovery - This will be a paper-based exercise.
  8. Test Plans - Produce and manage test plans with the TDAs, service, security, and test assurance team.

Due to the nature and urgency of this post, candidates holding or who have held high level security clearance in the past are most welcome to apply. Please note successful applicants will be required to be security cleared prior to appointment which can take up to a minimum of 10 weeks.
