Network Administrator Jobs in Wisconsin: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a network administrator in Wisconsin?
Wisconsin does not require a state-issued license to work as a network administrator, so the path runs through education and industry credentials. Most employers expect at least an associate degree in information technology or a related field, with a bachelor's degree preferred for mid-level roles. Earning CompTIA Network+ first and then progressing to a Cisco CCNA or Microsoft Azure Administrator certification makes candidates competitive across Wisconsin's healthcare, manufacturing, and financial services sectors.
How much do network administrators make in Wisconsin?
Network administrators in Wisconsin earn a median of about $83,650 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $58,950 for the lowest 10% to over $128,580 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire network administrators in Wisconsin?
Wisconsin network administrator roles are posted by Menards, Latitude, and Greenheck and others right now, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Wisconsin's large healthcare systems, insurance carriers, and manufacturing firms tend to have the most consistent and recurring openings for network administrators across the state.
Which Wisconsin cities have the most network administrator jobs?
Neenah, Verona, and Madison account for the largest share of network administrator openings in Wisconsin. Milwaukee leads because of its concentration of healthcare systems, financial institutions, and corporate headquarters, while Madison's openings are driven by state government agencies and the University of Wisconsin campus, and Green Bay's demand reflects its manufacturing base and regional healthcare employers.
Are there remote network administrator jobs in Wisconsin?
Yes, but they're less common than in purely software-focused roles, since network administration frequently requires on-site access to physical hardware. About 0% of network administrator openings tied to Wisconsin are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, so meaningful options do exist. Roles focused on cloud networking, network monitoring, and security operations are the most likely to offer remote or hybrid arrangements.
How can I get hired as a network administrator in Wisconsin with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is landing a helpdesk or IT support technician role first, then moving into network administration once you have hands-on exposure. Wisconsin's large healthcare systems such as Advocate Aurora Health and Froedtert Health, as well as state agencies in Madison, regularly hire IT support staff who can grow into network roles. Earning a CompTIA A+ followed by Network+ before applying gives you a concrete credential edge, and community colleges like Madison College and Milwaukee Area Technical College offer IT programs with lab environments that substitute for on-the-job experience.
Where can I find and apply to network administrator jobs in Wisconsin?
You can find and apply to network administrator jobs in Wisconsin on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from employers hiring across the state right now. Search the listings, find the roles that match your background and preferences, and apply directly to the ones that fit.
