Job Description

Department Description

Network Rail is at the heart of revitalising Britain’s railways. Over the next five years, we intend to invest £34.6 billion on improving and developing the rail network. From multi-million pound schemes, such as the rejuvenation of King’s Cross station and the upgrade and expansion of Thameslink, to Europe’s largest civil engineering project - Crossrail, we are involved in some of the most ambitious and diverse ventures the UK has ever seen. Working with us you’ll benefit from state-of-the-art training and a second-to-none support network, all in a company with an annual turnover that equals those within the top 5 of the FTSE 100.

Our remit stretches far beyond the network of railway lines that run the length and breadth of the UK. From stations to tracks, signals, bridges and tunnels, we own and manage a vast number of assets essential to the social and economic wellbeing of the entire nation. In order to meet the travel demands of an ever-increasing population, were expected to grow by at least 30% over the next ten years. During such uncertain economic times this is rare indeed. In fact, we have funding secured for an infrastructure investment programme that could change the face of Britain.

The majority of major rail enhancements are delivered by third parties, but Network Rail has a vital role in facilitating such schemes, and undertaking smaller enhancements to meet customer needs. We have particular in-house expertise in the construction and completion of committed legacy projects, initiatives arising from the Safety and Environment Plan, and schemes sponsored by the Strategic Rail Authority and other key stakeholders.
