Missions & Main activities

We are currently expanding in the UK and Ireland, growing our business and our team. One of the exciting projects the Telecommunication Engineer will work on relates to the execution of the Birmingham tramway network extension contract. The aim of this once-renewable five-year contract is to construct 4 km of new line in the coming three years (three extensions) and an additional 15 km in the following five years (one additional lines).

The role of Egis Rail is included in a partnership agreement called "The Midland Metro Alliance" which brings together the Prime Contractor, the Construction Consortium and the Engineering Office.

Telecommunication Engineer will work closely with Egis Rail UK and other Egis subsidiaries.

The successful candidate will work with Low Voltage Power Supply (power), Signalling and Civil engineers (ducting, drainage) in order to provide a full telecom design that is cost effective and technically accurate
