• Shadowing the existing MML Team Leader in your respective discipline for the initial 3-month induction phase to gain network-specific knowledge and expectations.
• Acting as the lead discipline representative for all new assets introduced as part of the network extension.
• Carrying out static infrastructure checks and testing to confirm asset suitability and readiness for operational use and driver training.
• Verifying that asset installation is complete and in accordance with the as-built drawings and technical specifications.
• Coordinating and support the familiarisation and training of operational and maintenance staff in relation to new equipment and environments.
• Creating or update maintenance schedules, procedures, and instructions aligned with manufacturer guidance and operational needs.
• Contributing to the collation, review, and handover of Health & Safety File data in collaboration with admin and Agility support teams.
• Supporting the development or amendment of policies and procedures required to manage new risks or configurations.
• Engaging in joint walkthroughs, snagging inspections, and review activities to sign off assets as ready for service.
• Supporting the Infrastructure Manager, Asset Handover Coordinator, and Technical Officer in achieving a coordinated and timely transition of new infrastructure into MML ownership.
• Ensuring all new assets are correctly registered and configured in the Agility asset management system with appropriate hierarchy, tasking, and scheduling.

To be successful in this role, you must possess:

• Demonstrable experience in Civils Infrastructure.
• A strong understanding of maintenance principles, asset inspection, and safety regulations within a light rail or rail infrastructure context.
• Practical experience of interpreting technical drawings and documentation.
• Experience in coordinating operational readiness activities, including static testing and staff familiarisation.
• Familiarity with asset management systems (e.g., Agility or equivalent CMMS).

It would be desirable if you also possess:

• Experience working on new infrastructure handovers, extensions, or commissioning.
• Understanding of Health and Safety File requirements under CDM regulations.

For this role, you must:

• Pass a stringent drugs and alcohol test, to be in line with the rail industry standards.
