The Construction Services team plans and delivers Ballast Cleaning and Overhead Line Renewals Projects using the Overhead Line Engineering (OLE) Train, On-Track-Plant, and the High Output Ballast Cleaning System.

The Directorate is structured into five teams reporting into the Construction Services Director; Engineering, Planning, OLE Delivery, Track Delivery, and Programme Change. Works are planned and delivered using an internal Network Rail workforce, with Construction Services acting as Principal Contractor, Principal Designer, and POS License holder.

During Control Period 7, Construction Services is remitted to plan and deliver Ballast Cleaning projects on Northwest & Central and Network Rail High Speed regions, and OLE renewals across Northwest & Central region. The team operates nationally from its Crewe and Bletchley Construction Depots, with support roles based at Birmingham and Milton Keynes.

We are seeking a resilient and experienced Construction Services Director to inspire a large team in delivering a safe, quality and efficient construction service to our Regional Customers, which differs from that available in the external supply chain.

This role is pivotal in meeting customer demands and budget expectations while fostering a culture of safety, compliance and continuous improvement. You will be a strategic thinker, be able to influence at all levels and demonstrate your experience of safely managing large scale projects in construction or infrastructure environments, being familiar with Construction Design Management (CDM)

Above all, your ability to communicate effectively at all levels and build relationships with both internal and external clients, wider SCO Teams, Trade Unions, the workforce, and delivery partners will be key.
