Rolling Stock Engineer with a Mechanical bias

2 months ago


Derby UK, Derbyshire, United Kingdom AEGIS Rail IKOS GROUP Full time

Position: Rolling Stock Engineer with a Mechanical bias

Location: Hybrid

Salary: Competitive basic, with excellent company benefits including competitive pension scheme and private healthcare


AEGIS Rail (part of the IKOS GROUP) is a dynamic and growing railway engineering company. Our vision is to be recognised and respected globally as the railway engineering consultancy of choice – a positive choice for our clients as well as for our staff and associates. Through the daily application of our core values – integrity, respect, excellence, passion and care – our goal is to delight our customers by giving excellent service, whilst providing a stimulating and rewarding working environment for our employees to thrive in.


The Role:

As part of the Rolling Stock team, you will become involved in a wide variety of projects. These could be small problem-solving projects or feasibility studies, maintenance extensions, through to full systems integration projects for systems such as ETCS, CCTV, PIS etc.


As you might expect, the Rolling Stock team is not only involved in passenger rolling stock. We also undertake projects on locomotives as well as On-track Machines and engineering vehicles. The Rolling Stock type might be electric or battery and diesel powered but it may also be new, state-of-the-art technology such as battery / battery hybrid.


Not all the tasks will be purely mechanical which is why you will have a broad knowledge of Rolling Stock and able to take control of projects and tasks with limited supervision. You will have good interpersonal skills and able to easily communicate with your colleagues and be comfortable liaising and communicating with our clients.


We work closely with other Sectors within AEGIS such as Safety & CSM. An appreciation of these topics would be an advantage.


You will not only be responsible for the technical delivery of projects, but you will be comfortable managing budgets, programmes and looking after the commercial side of projects. You may also be required to manage a small team in the course of the project delivery. This may include people and disciplines from other parts of AEGIS and specialist consultants.


The role is hybrid, however a flexible mindset is essential. You may be required to work on-site at our client’s premises for a period of time, as well as in our Derby office or other locations as the job dictates.


Essential Requirements:

Engineering Degree (BEng or MEng) or equivalent preferred

Proven background in Rolling Stock Engineering and project delivery

Experience of applying professional engineering judgement to support engineering projects

Experience of carrying out technical document review and analysis

Excellent written and verbal communication skills
