Who We Are

Join Network Rail! Where People and Connections Matter

At Network Rail, we're dedicated to keeping passengers and freight moving safely and efficiently across the country. When you join us, you're not just part of a team- you're part of something that matters to millions. We believe that our people are at the heart of what we do, and every role plays a vital part in building a better, more connected railway.

We're committed to creating a diverse, inclusive workplace that reflects the communities we serve. To discover more about our ED&I commitments click here . We value flexibility and understand the importance of a healthy work-life balance. As a Disability Confident Leader, we'll do everything we can to accommodate any needs throughout the recruitment process.

Safe behaviour is a requirement of working for Network Rail. Applicants should be able to demonstrate their awareness of our safety vision .

About the role

About the role:

This is a key leadership role at the heart of railway operations, based in the Tyneside Rail Operating Centre. You'll oversee train movements across a large and varied area - from Northallerton up to the Royal Border Bridge in Berwick-upon-Tweed - helping to keep services running safely and smoothly for our passengers.

You'll lead a team of Local Operations Managers, supporting them to deliver a reliable service on a good day, and stepping in to lead during disruption and help get things back on track when it matters most.

Working closely with train and freight operators, maintenance teams and control, you'll be a key point of contact - bringing people together to keep the railway moving. Safety will always come first, and you'll make sure your team is trained, supported and ready to carry out their safety-critical roles with confidence.

You'll also help shape the future of how we operate - improving performance, sharing best practice, and supporting your team to grow and develop into more senior roles. At the same time, you'll play an active part in the wider East Coast Operations team, contributing to joint problem-solving and continuous improvement across the route.

What's in it for you?

We offer a competitive salary and a great range of benefits to support you at work and at home, including:

28 days annual leave, with the option to buy or sell more
A choice of pension schemes
Up to 75% season ticket and leisure discount on rail and underground travel for you and your family (subject to approval year on year)
Private healthcare
5 days paid volunteer or carers leave
A flexible benefits platform with national and local retail discounts

This is a Band 3C role, with a salary starting from £55,596.

Location : Tyneside IEC

Contract : Full time

Interviews: 02 July 2026 at York Rail Operating Centre

Join us and lead from the front-making a real difference to how we run trains and serve our passengers every day.

Care about doing things safely, always putting safety at the heart of your decisions
Be focused on performance and continuous improvement
Have good financial awareness and experience managing budgets or resources
Communicate clearly and confidently, with strong IT skills

You'll also need to:
