Oversee the delivery of improvement plans and projects that benefit both Network Rail and TOC partners.
Ensure compliance with contractual agreements across all parties.
Identify and deliver income-generating opportunities while optimising financial outcomes from performance regimes and contractual arrangements.
Drive continuous improvement initiatives, sharing best practice and delivering lasting benefits.
Support the Franchise & Access Executive in meeting customer and business requirements.
