You will also support the safe movement of trains, maintenance and cleaning activities throughout Heaton Depot.
- This role comes with dual responsibility, you will be nominated as a designated person on a rostered basis, the remaining roster turns you will be allocated as a Reception’s Duty operative.
- If this sounds like your thing, we’d love to hear from you.

**Key responsibilities**:

- We’re also looking for the following:

- Ability to demonstrate a methodical approach to working activities in a safety critical environment.
- Rail operational experience and sound knowledge of an operational depot, but this is not essential.
- Knowledge of operational depots or similar environments, or previous cleaning experience would be useful.

**Our Benefits**:
Because we value our people and reward hard work, we’ve created a benefits package that we think you’ll love. So, you’ll be able to make the most of:

- Free Travel on Northern services - everyone who works at Northern, plus their partners/spouses and dependents, can travel for free right across our full network of services. *Certain eligibility criteria will apply.
- 75% discount with other Train Operating Companies - after 2 years with us, you’ll also get discounted travel on many other rail services in the UK and Europe.
- Defined Benefit Pension Scheme - you’ll rarely find a pension as good as a Northern pension, and we top up your pension with a generous 1.5 times your contribution.
- A generous holiday entitlement - our holiday entitlements can help you feel like you can get away too.
- We also have Disability Confident status, which means we’re committed to making the most of the talents that disabled people can bring to the workplace._
