Additional information

I have good experience on a digger and good general knowledge of engineering as I studied it for 4 years to get a HNC. So I’m just curious if there is a role specific for my skills and id just like to see if there is anything with network rail or if you could point me in the right direction.

Hi Caleb,


With the obvious caveat that I work in timetabling in an office so definitely don't drive a digger however I've had a look around and it does look like Operative and Technician roles in Off Track teams may use these skills. Off Track teams work to look after the parts of the infrastructure around the railway such as Vegetation, Drainage and Fencing. When I looked today (12th of Feb) there were some opportunities at Banbury which mention in the advert about using mini diggers.

Hi Caleb,


Using the Network Rail Careers site Careers search - Network Rail , for the vacancies I have mentioned above I searched "Banbury" in the Keyword box.
