- Ability to work alone - Every signaller requires the ability to operate efficiently and make safety critical decisions confidently on an individual basis.
- Ability to work as part of a team - Despite being able to work confidently alone, it is important you are a great teammate.
- Attention to detail - The signaller role requires consistent high levels of attention but varying levels of concentration.
- Multi-Tasking - You need to deal with phone calls, signal trains, block lines for maintenance work and complete administration tasks.
- Being calm and composed
- Due to the intense and challenging events that can occur on the railway, it is crucial you are able to remain calm whilst working under pressure.
- Decision Making - By its nature, the signaller roles require you to make safety critical decisions throughout the course of your shift.
