We are looking for an excellent problem solver to work within our maintenance team, to fault find and repair our trains to ensure our customers get the best possible service, through an excellently maintained, reliable fleet.
- At Northern, we play a vital role connecting millions of people to work, leisure and education opportunities.
- We operate 2,500 services a day to more than 500 stations across the North of England. But our vision is about more than just train travel. It’s about setting a new standard for customer experiences. And that means building a different kind of workplace. One that values individuality and celebrates differences. Somewhere we can work together, have fun, and get stuck in to making our customers’ lives easier. A place that goes out of its way to create incredible opportunities for everyone to grow and be the best we can be every single day.
- So, if you’re smart, forward thinking, passionate and full of fresh ideas like we are, you could play your part in making it happen.

**About the role**:
As a Skilled Train Maintainer (STM), you'll play a vital role within our TrainCare Centre's to carry out vital maintenance, fault finding and repairing of our trains. This includes servicing, fault finding, repair and overhaul of all traction and rolling stock, components and equipment to the approved standards, as laid down in the vehicle maintenance instructions, technical specifications and related working procedures.
- You will report to our Engineering Depot Supervisor’s and work alongside our maintenance team to keep our trains in service and fault find when things go wrong.
- It’s an exciting time to join our engineering team, as we are transforming and developing skillsets, to help us get the right people, on the right units, at the right time. You’ll need to work a range of shifts, from the early hours of the morning and including nights, plus weekends and Bank Holidays, it’s vital that you’re flexible and that you live within 60 minutes’ drive of our Allerton TrainCare Centre.

**Key responsibilities**:
This is a varied and challenging role, but here is a taste of what your day-to-day activities could include:

- Keeping our trains maintained to our high standards
- Keeping up to date on routine services for our trains, to ensure we are running a safe service
- Signing off to confirm that all your work has been completed correctly and accurately
- Prioritise your daily workload to ensure smooth and efficient running of our services
- Attend track calls, where necessary

**About you**:
We expect you to be qualified with a level 3 NVQ or a recognised apprenticeship and have the experience and practical ability of electrical and mechanical systems. We would also like to see a demonstration of your ability to successfully complete further competency training, as required. What’s really important is an ability to work as part of a team and to be able to think on your feet, in sometimes demanding situations.
- We’re also looking for the following:

- Excellent communication skills
- The ability to prioritise and be adaptable when things can change
- Showing initiative where necessary, whilst continuing to adhere to our working policies
- Confidence to build relationships with a wide variety of people and teams
- Experience in diagnosing and solving problems
- Ability to interpret technical diagrams
- Ability to work to instructions and rules and regulations

And don’t forget that our selection process includes a safety critical medical assessment, that covers general health, vision, hearing, colour vision and drugs and alcohol testing.

**Our Benefits**:
