Mac Mini doesn't start networking until login

We have a Mac Mini in our office that unfortunately sometimes reboots, the issue is that when it reboots networking isn't started until a login has been done on the machine physically which during covid-19 lockdown is impossible. 

Has anyone seen this happen with a mac / found a fix ?

I haven't experienced that. iirc it should connect and allow screen sharing before you log in. 

 

what OS does the Mac mini run?

Catalina. 

Yeah it should, Im wondering if the disk encryption on it stops the services from running.
