Working as a network engineer in Manchester
The strongest UK market outside London, with real depth in digital, media and a growing engineering scene. Salaries run roughly 15-25% below London while housing runs far below it, which is why the net position often favours Manchester.
Most of the hiring in this list clusters around Spinningfields, Ancoats and MediaCity. Location on a posting is not always literal — check whether a role is genuinely on site, and whether "remote" means remote within the country or remote from anywhere, because the two are priced differently.

Network Engineer pay and hiring, asked properly
What salary can a network engineer expect?
In India, roughly 5–12 LPA at mid-level and 15–30 LPA senior, with data-centre and service-provider work above enterprise IT. The US band is about $70,000–$115,000, the UK £35,000–£65,000. Network engineers who have moved into cloud networking sit well above traditional routing-and-switching roles.
Is CCNA still worth doing?
Yes for entry, and it remains one of the few certifications employers screen on directly. It stops being the differentiator quickly, though. The engineers whose salaries move are the ones who added automation — Python, Ansible, infrastructure as code — to the networking fundamentals rather than collecting the next Cisco exam.
Is the role shrinking as everything moves to cloud?
It is changing rather than shrinking. Physical switch configuration is a smaller share of the work and cloud networking — VPCs, transit gateways, hybrid connectivity, segmentation — is a larger one. An engineer who only knows on-premises kit is in a narrowing market; one who knows both is in a strong one.
