Are you a signalling engineer with telecoms/communications systems experience? 

We are looking for a Signalling & Telecoms Engineer to join our team in the North West of England. You’ll have the opportunity to work on a number of exciting projects, playing a key role in driving improvement and ensuring the successful delivery of our telecommunications and signalling systems.

• Assist in complex root cause investigations, ensuring that solutions are found efficiently.

• Engage effectively with stakeholders at Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM) to ensure all contractual obligations are met to a high standard.

The Ideal Candidate:

• Proficient with Omnivista and/or Solarwinds systems.
• I.T-savvy, with a good understanding of modern telecommunications technology.
• Experience in signalling or broader communications technologies (CCTV, networking).
• Knowledge of cybersecurity and firewall management (desirable but not essential).
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Ability to work well as part of a team and independently.

This is a fantastic opportunity to be involved in impactful projects from day one, making a real difference in the way we manage and deliver our services.
