In the highly specialized and safety-critical domain of railway signalling and control, a Project Manager plays an absolutely essential role, acting as the central orchestrator for complex system implementations. They are responsible for meticulously planning, executing, and closing projects that deliver sophisticated signalling solutions, encompassing everything from interlocking systems and train control to communication networks. This involves expertly managing scope, budget, schedule, and resources, all while navigating stringent regulatory requirements and upholding the highest standards of safety and reliability inherent to railway operations. A key aspect of their work is to foster seamless coordination among diverse teams-including hardware engineers, software developers, and installation specialists-and to effectively engage with numerous stakeholders such as rail operators, regulatory bodies, and various sub-contractors. Ultimately, the Project Manager ensures these vital systems are delivered on time, within budget, and to the exacting specifications required for safe, efficient, and modern railway operations, often overseeing extensive testing and commissioning phases.
As a part of the Wales & West Delivery Team and as a project manager you will help in the success of the team in delivering these complex projects.
