About the role:

We’re looking for a hands-on and resourceful Network Engineer to join the team at Live Nation in Melbourne.

Working alongside the Senior Network Engineer (APAC), you’ll also help deliver new venue builds, office moves and refresh projects, collaborating with Venue IT, Cyber Security and Global Network Engineering.

• Collaboration: Work with the Senior Network Engineer (APAC), internal IT teams, telecommunications providers and technology partners to deliver reliable network services.

What you’ll bring:

• Network engineering experience: 3–5+ years of hands-on experience supporting enterprise LAN, WAN and wireless networks, including network hardware configuration and deployment.
• Cisco networking: Practical experience with Cisco and/or Cisco Meraki routing, switching and wireless technologies, with a strong understanding of TCP/IP, VLANs, routing, DHCP, DNS and VPNs. CCNA or Meraki certification is advantageous.
• Multi-site environments: Experience supporting networks across multiple locations, including working with telecommunications carriers and third-party providers.
• Troubleshooting: Strong analytical skills and the ability to diagnose and resolve complex network issues.
• Adaptability: A proactive, hands-on approach and the ability to remain calm and effective during critical incidents.
• Communication and teamwork: Confidence working independently and collaboratively with technical and non-technical stakeholders.

The Benefits:

• A vibrant, music-focused workplace fostering creativity and collaboration.
• Opportunities for professional development and career advancement.
• A flexible approach to when and where you work, designed to support balance in all aspects of life.
• Access to concerts, events, and other entertainment perks.
