We’re TransPennine Express and we’re going places. Whether that’s helping customers reach their destination, or ensuring our colleagues feel fulfilled and supported in their careers. We’re looking for people with drive and enthusiasm to join our amazing team and help push for more progress within the rail industry. We look forward to meeting new faces and eager minds, ready to join our mission of creating a better-connected network in the North and Scotland, for good.
Over the next decade, TransPennine Express (TPE) and Northern (NTL) will benefit from a series of high profile infrastructure projects presenting a challenge to keep our customers moving with as little disruption as possible to their journey. The most notable is the multi-billion pound Transpennine Route Upgrade (TRU) between Manchester and York, but there are also other schemes taking place across our networks.
It is extremely important to TPE, NTL and the wider railway industry that communication to customers is consistent and accurate, keeping people moving when key lines are closed and during unplanned disruption.
To support our wider approach to customer handling, an exciting opportunity has arisen become a Customer Delivery Manager.
The successful candidate will be expected to work at different railway locations across the north of England, communicating effectively with all other front-line grades, managers, key contractors and, most critically, the fare-paying customer. Working in a cross industry team with other Customer Delivery Managers on behalf of TPE, NTL and other operators, you will act as advocates for the TRU programme, taking the lead in customer management both in advance and during planned disruption to deliver excellent customer service in line with the TRU Customer Manifesto.

An ideal candidate would have the following strengths and experiences:

• An effective communicator, approachable, possess excellent interpersonal skills, and a flexible approach to working hours and locations;
• Experience working in a fast-paced front-line customer facing role, within the transport or retail industry;
• Must have customer service experience and must be able work under pressure;
• Must be punctual, a team player, well-presented and well-organised;
• Comfortable working on their feet, often outside and for several hours at a time;
• Good geographical knowledge of the railway system in the north of England;
• Educated to a GCSE standard (or equivalent) as a minimum.

You are expected to be accountable for your actions and business performance, whilst challenging yourself as an individual to be even better. As part of the wider team you will continually develop your skills and fully demonstrate the company and TRU values.
