Mechanical & Electrical Locking Engineer

2 weeks ago


Eastleigh Hampshire, United Kingdom Network Rail Full time

Brief Description

The Mechanical and Electrical Locking Team are a national team responsible for the maintenance, repair, and refurbishment of 385 mechanical signal boxes, 370 ground frames, and associated equipment across the rail network, from Wick to Cornwall. As you would probably expect from such unique equipment, there are very few parts that can just be bought off the shelf. Many of our replacement parts are recovered items which are refurbished in-house by our team. It takes a wide range of unique and highly skilled expertise to sustain this function. Whilst we are predominately known for our expertise in mechanical signaling, our wide skills base means that we also carry out works for other parts of the business as requested.

About the role (External) Key Accountabilities
  1. Lead and direct the Mechanical and Electrical Locking and Testing team on behalf of the Region & Route in the safe delivery of assessment, maintenance, inspection, renewal, repair, overhaul, testing, and commissioning of both mechanical and electrical locking systems and other signaling assets as directed, whilst complying with safety, quality, and environmental standards.
  2. Provide planning resources and support for all mechanical and electrical locking maintenance/complimentary works in liaison with MDUMs.
  3. Carry out audits of staff, resources, and assets to assess compliance with Company and Group Standards.
  4. Assist the Locking Programme Manager in the compilation of Regional, Route, and Complimentary Works budgets for assets in the sphere of responsibility and manage the delivery of budgets when approved.
  5. Develop and implement a dated and resourced M&E locking overhaul and renewal plan, prioritizing assets on a safe and useful life basis.
  6. Effective provision of rapid response to Route M&E locking faults and equipment failure as required by MDUMs.
  7. Create and maintain minor stocking points to source items required for effective locking asset maintenance.
  8. Manage the training and support of staff in the competencies required to test, renew, modify, and commission locking equipment and other signaling assets as appropriate.

  10. Timely provision and review of relevant reports and plans.
