**What is signalling?**

Signalling is how we keep thousands of trains moving safely across our railway. By operating a sophisticated traffic light system and other specialist equipment, our Signallers control the movement of trains across the network.

**Without signalling, our railway wouldn’t function.**

**What does it involve?**

As a Signaller you’ll need to react to changing situations, make quick decisions and stay calm under pressure. Every day, you’ll face new challenges, some you expect and others you don’t. This could be responding to an incident such as trespassers on the line; you could be taking a line blockage to allow track access for maintenance colleagues, or communicating with a train driver about a problem they’ve encountered.

Our Signallers work a variety of shift patterns, including nights, evenings, weekends and bank holidays. There’s also lone-working and team-working. The responsibility of a safety-critical role isn’t for everyone - but you’ll finish the day knowing the work you’re doing has helped passengers reach their destinations safely.

**Your Training Matters**

Becoming a Signaller is a big commitment and requires extensive training and a good amount of self-directed learning. We’ll support you with training to develop the technical and non-technical skills you’ll need to be successful.

This is 12-weeks of Initial Signaller Training (IST), (10-weeks of which is classroom learning) and location-specific training where you’ll learn on the job and practice your skills in a live environment before being signed-off as a fully competent Signaller.

It’s important you’re actively committed to your training and personal development. All Signallers have an ongoing cycle of competence assessments to help keep their skills up to date, but also to help support professional development and career progression.

Each day as a Signaller is rewarding. Your decision-making skills will make all the difference to the safety of our passengers and colleagues.

**Is it right for you?**

You don’t need any specific experience to start a career in signalling. It’s more important that you’ve got the right transferable skills and behaviours. Here are the key non-technical skills that matter in signalling.
- **Conscientious - **You’re able to work diligently, deliver high quality work through following procedures, and be willing to take responsibility for your actions. You’ll work in accordance with the standards, by taking a systematic and thorough approach to what you do without the need for constant supervision.
- **Attention Management - **You’ll be able to remain alert and focussed, to manage distractions, and keep an awareness of the overall situation.
- **Workload Management - **You’ll be able to prioritise demands, analysing information coming from a number of sources, carry out multiple tasks quickly, sometimes at the same time and switch your attention between tasks and sources.
- **Working with Others - **You can build key relationships with people internal and external to Network Rail, enabling us to work together to get the job done safely and effectively.
- **Controlled Under Pressure - **You’ll be able to think in a controlled manner under pressure, effectively dealing with stressors, and adapting to changeable conditions.
- **Decision Making - **You can make risk-based decisions in a timely fashion, to maintain a safe and efficient running railway.
- **Communications - **You’ll need to be able to communicate clearly and concisely, both verbally and in written format, and to be confident in standing your ground. Clear communication between different people on the railway is essential for the safe running of our railway to ensure that all parties have a shared understanding of what is going on.

**Safety matters**We’re committed to keeping our tracks, staff, and passengers safe, so it’s important that you’re always alert when you’re working as a Signaller. To help manage fatigue, you must live within a 60-minute commute of your chosen location, including having access to your own means of transport. When you apply, you’ll be asked to confirm that you are able to commute to your chosen location, whether by car, bike or foot, in under 60 minutes.

- Employee discount
- On-site parking
