About the role

The Senior Network Support Engineer (GSM-R) plays a pivotal role at the heart of a mission-critical railway communication network, ensuring millions of passengers and services stay connected, safe, and on the move. This is more than a support role-it's an opportunity to take ownership of complex technical challenges, leading high-impact incident resolution, driving root cause improvements, and shaping the performance of a vital national infrastructure. Alongside hands-on technical leadership, you'll lead and inspire a team of engineers, developing talent, setting direction, and fostering a high-performance, collaborative culture. Working across GSM-R and telecoms technologies, you'll partner with internal teams and suppliers to deliver continuous improvement and innovation, while maintaining the highest safety and operational standards.

What will you be doing?

Provide GSM-R subject matter expertise and technical leadership, collaborating with other functions and field-based teams to promote best practices across NRT and to restore service as quickly as possible.
Own the risk profile associated with the GSM-R technology platform, together with the management plan of the potential improvements and related standards in order manage the control and mitigation of risk and provide a sustainable service.
Own and deliver an audit and communication plan, identifying and communicating opportunities to align and improve working practices in order to deliver agreed targets with fewer interruptions and maximise GSM-R service availability.
Create and provide technical documentation and briefings associated with GSM-R to engineers in specified delivery units in order that the purpose, as well as the content is understood.
Manage and be a part of a comprehensive GSM-R operations support service focussed to the delivery units including the delivery of forensic investigations or resolving complex incidents and problems, in order to restore service as quickly as possible.
Monitor the actions for the restoration of service associated with GSM-R technology and design, planning and implementing measures of improvement by collaborating with other departments to provide consistent approaches in fault investigation and resolution.
Review and make expert recommendations on derogation and non-compliance to GSM-R related standards so that services can be understood, incidents can be resolved, and services maintained.
Review and monitor progression of potential improvements to GSM-R related standards and provide technical feedback to the originators in order to influence standards and embed best practice.
Collaborate with project teams to develop GSM-R related investment papers and project submissions creating change proposals where relevant, in order to maintain and improve service delivery and availability.
Monitor and analyse the quality and performance of GSM-R related assets across the network and work with colleagues or vendors to implement corrective action as required to reduce impacting incident and increase service availiability.
