Rail Digital Control and Operations - Traffic Management This role sits at the front end of a major rail high speed rail programme, shaping how the Traffic Management system will operate, not just how it is built. You will work overseeing the supplier on the concept, option development and early system definition stages of a next generation Traffic Management solution. This new modern high speed railway has distinctive operational requirements, and the system is being engineered to meet those needs. This role sits on the client side, shaping requirements, assessing options and ensuring that the developing solution will function effectively in the real operational railway, before moving to assurance of the detailed design. The supplier leads the product development, while you ensure the system is defined, integrated and aligned to end user and Network Rail interfaces. Role focus You will be involved at the stage where operational need is translated into system behaviour. The work centres on defining what the railway needs the Traffic Management system to do, assessing options, and ensuring proposed solutions are workable in real operational conditions. Key aspects of the role include: Leading development of Traffic Management system concepts and options Translating operational and control room needs into system requirements Assessing whether proposed supplier solutions will genuinely work in service Representing client operational needs as the system is engineered and configured Focusing on end user needs including control room operation, usability and ergonomics Managing key system interfaces, including boundaries with Network Rail and other railway systems Acting as a senior technical figure across the supply chain, interfacing with designers, product teams and customer stakeholders Environment This is the development and shaping phase rather than late stage delivery. Programme level technical conflicts are managed by senior CCS leadership, allowing you to focus on engineering judgement, option evaluation and system definition. You will work in a multi discipline environment typical of a major rail systems programme, engaging with operations, signalling, telecoms, rolling stock and infrastructure interfaces, but with your core focus on the Traffic Management layer and how the railway will actually be run in real time. Other subject matter experts exist to support elements of an ETCS system, Ideal background Experience with railway Traffic Management systems or rail control centre systems Strong systems engineering capability, especially requirements, integration and option development Understanding of how train services are regulated and managed operationally Exposure to control room environments, operator workflows or human factors considerations Experience working between client and supplier organisations on complex system solutions Ability to operate at senior level across a complex supply chain and multiple stakeholders This is a role for someone who enjoys the early engineering stage of a programme, where the system is still being shaped, operational concepts are still being defined, and technical decisions have long term impact on how the railway will perform
