We encourage Network Rail to adopt best practice by using appropriate data to challenge decisions about maintenance and renewal of assets over their lifecycle. By achieving a more resilient and reliable network we can improve performance, efficiency and safety resulting in a better service for passengers and customers as well as value for taxpayers. This is a great opportunity for someone to develop their knowledge of asset management, safety and economic regulation. There are interesting challenges ahead for the team, and we are therefore looking for an exceptional individual to help us drive forward our corporate objectives. Interest is in the following areas. The efficiency and sustainability of how railway stations, depots and fixed plant are managed and operated. Lifecycle strategies and policies including new and emerging technology areas for specialist building services in railway buildings. Accessibility of new and renewed station infrastructure, including vertical transportation such as lifts and escalators, for persons with disabilities and persons with reduced mobility. Pedestrian flows, e.g. designing for fire safety or overcrowding on special events. Complex station upgrades, involving railway infrastructure and 3rd party development (e.g. local government or private developers). Possible impacts of climate change on railway buildings. Main Responsibilities As a Building Services Engineer your key responsibilities, although not exhaustive, will include: Provide specialist technical and expert advice across all ORR directorates.
