* Managing on-site changes and ensuring accurate documentation
* Supporting delivery of network cabling projects (racking, stacking, fibre optics)
* Ensuring projects are closed out properly with full documentation
* Acting as the on-site point of contact for stakeholders
This role covers sites across Slough, Heathrow, Hemel Hempstead and surrounding areas, including major DC clusters (LHR).
