About The Role
In this crucial front-line role, you'll be responsible for delivering prompt and effective responses to any accidents and incidents on a section of the railway. Wherever you're needed, you'll make a positive impact, helping us to fix issues. Through careful investigation and reporting, you'll also make sure we understand how to prevent similar events in the future.

Naturally, we'll also expect you to carry out a broad range of operational support duties - from performance monitoring and weather related contingency planning, through to audit and engineering work, stores ordering and vehicle monitoring.
