Provide the task force with practical railway O&M knowledge and lead the translation of the improvement plan into implementable changes within E&M.

The role will coordinate technical and operational implementation across Metro and Tram interfaces without being expected to act as the expert for every E&M system. It will draw on system engineers, operations personnel, asset managers, safety specialists, maintainers and subcontractors for detailed technical authority.

Key responsibilities

• Support development and implementation of the joint E&M TRansformation Framework.
• Drive practical implementation of the E&M Improvement Programme across Metro and Tram O&M, coordinating engineering, maintenance, operations, safety, asset management and subcontractor interfaces to ensure agreed improvements are workable and embedded in day-to-day delivery.
• Provide practical railway O&M support to the E&M Transformation Programme, working across relevant workstreams and with engineering, maintenance, operations, safety, asset management, commercial and subcontractor stakeholders to translate identified improvement opportunities into practical, coordinated and sustainable operational improvements.
• Support maintenance optimisation and innovation, coordinating objective assessment of optimisation opportunities against safety, operational, commercial and whole-life-cost considerations, and other data-driven maintenance approaches.
• Support the implementation and embedding of E&M transformation initiatives, providing practical O&M input to operational, organisational and capability changes and helping ensure improvements are workable, appropriately resourced and sustainable within business-as-usual operations.
• Verify that improvements are effectively implemented and sustainable, working with accountable business owners to confirm that new processes, controls and working practices are embedded into business-as-usual operations and supported by appropriate evidence

Key deliverables
• E&M Transformation Implemntation plan
• Integrated implementation schedule, milestone tracker, action and deliverables register.
• Implementation risk, issue and dependency register.
• Periodic implementation progress reports
• Implementation evidence and close-out records.

Essential experience
• Practical experience in railway, metro or tram operations and maintenance.
• Broad working knowledge of E&M maintenance rather than narrow expertise in only one system.
• Experience working with engineering, operations, maintenance planning, safety assurance and subcontractor teams.
• Understanding of preventive, corrective and condition-based maintenance.
• Ability to interpret maintenance evidence, technical submissions, asset-condition information and operational performance data.
• Experience implementing improvements in a live operational environment.
• Familiarity with ISO 55001-based asset-management systems.

Qualifications
• Bachelor’s degree or higher diploma in electrical, mechanical, systems, railway or maintenance engineering, or an equivalent relevant discipline.
