Your future role

Take on a new challenge and apply your expertise in railway signalling to a cutting-edge field. You’ll work alongside a dynamic and collaborative team of professionals.

You'll play a pivotal role in ensuring the successful planning and management of all Test and Commissioning (T&C) activities for railway signalling projects. Day-to-day, you’ll work closely with teams across the business (project core teams, partners, third parties, and clients), oversee the implementation of T&C processes, and ensure compliance with local regulations and professional standards.

You’ll specifically take care of delivering T&C plans and procedures while coordinating team activities and training, but also managing fieldwork logistics, including materials, tools, documentation, and access arrangements.

We’ll look to you for:

• Overseeing the Quality, Cost, and Delivery (QCD) of the T&C work package for the project.

• Monitoring and managing the QCD of the T&C work package, including Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) and Railway Safety, in compliance with customer requirements and system solutions.

• Managing internal interfaces with the project core team and external interfaces with partners, third parties, and clients.

• Implementing the T&C process in the field and ensuring its application by the T&C team on the project.

• Preparing and managing field T&C activities, including materials, tools, documentation, personnel, access, and logistics.

• Ensuring compliance with EHS processes, reporting, and anticipating potential risks or issues.

• Accurately reporting all project-related issues in the appropriate tools, including defect descriptions and associated testing contexts.
