Job Description

Department & how it relates to the role

The Crossrail project aims to deliver 24 trains an hour through 23km of new subsurface railway infrastructure under central London, continuing outwards to the east and west over 76km of some of the most congested and complex rail infrastructure in the UK. The Crossrail project is jointly sponsored by the Department for Transport (DfT) and Transport for London (TfL) and is being developed via a joint-venture company Cross London Rail Links (CLRL). A significant amount of work is required to Network Rail’s surface network and the interfaces between Network Rail and CLRL, DfT & TfL are considerable. A project team has been formed within Network Rail to manage these going forward.

The Reading Station Area Redevelopment Project is part of the Crossrail Reading Programme. RSAR provides significant benefits at Reading Station and to the surrounding infrastructure including 5 new platforms, new station entrances, a new transfer deck with step free access to all platforms, grade separated junctions, remodelled and re-signalled layouts and a new train care depot.

About the role (External)

This is an opportunity to work with the latest signalling technology to put in place design solutions that will help create a world class rail infrastructure for the twenty-first century. You’ll be part of Network Rail’s major project to integrate Crossrail with the national rail network, whilst keeping the network fully operational.

As a Project Engineer on Crossrail / Reading Station Area Re-development, first and foremost, you’ll care about good design. You’ll work alongside our design houses to ensure their designs will work in practice. You’ll also make sure designs provide all the functionality required by our sponsors who include Crossrail, TfL and RfL. All this is to be achieved while providing value for money, and meeting all relevant standards.

By joining us now, you’ll be part of taking a major project from design to completion.

You’ll be working with cutting edge technology, which could include European Train Control System and Automatic Train Operation. Not only that, but the work will provide plenty of challenge, whether making sure our new technology interfaces with existing signalling, or that new equipment is configured optimally for our needs.

We’re working to the highest degrees of accuracy and quality, so you’ll be honing your skills working in a team committed to excellence, using state-of-the-art technology and processes.

Do you have….?

· UK Mainline signalling engineering experience?
· Knowledge of signalling principles?
· A relevant qualification? Depending on the role, you’ll need a minimum of a HNC/HND or commensurate work experience. For our more senior roles, you’ll have chartered status or will be working towards it.
· Experience in large multi-discipline rail projects, ideally having worked on all stages of the project lifecycle?
· Experience of working to RAMS (Reliability, Availability, Maintainability and Safety)?
· An appreciation of the product approval process?

Are you….?

Innovative? You’ll challenge the way things are done, to ensure we design the best possible solutions and you’ll make sure we get the most out of new technology.
Able to deal with pressure? You’ll sometimes be expected to deliver to tight timescales.
A clear communicator, who’s able to build successful working relationships and stand your ground when necessary?
Able to write logical, readable and grammatically sound documents, such as remits?
