About the role What does the average day look like?

A typical day as a Senior Design Engineer [TPM] at Network Rail is both varied and rewarding. Some of the key accountabilities include:

Manage the development remit for a proposal so that it properly describes the engineering requirements, scope, possibilities and operational performance targets and maintain a robust challenge to sponsoring engineers and managers, in order to monitor and value manage the business and technical remit and thereby optimise the business case.

Manage all engineering and development activities so that they result in schemes that are affordable, and that meet programme requirements in a safe & environmentally responsible manner for time, cost and quality.

Manage (or undertake where applicable) the development of suitable engineering options for a proposal giving full consideration to safety, reliability, operational capacity modelling, maintainability, ease of construction, and environmental/whole life issues. Engineering excellence is to be supported by:

Secure all relevant base data.
Review compliance with appropriate standards.
Use risk evaluation methods (e.g. HAZOP, QRA, LRM, and the GK/RT/14200 suite), as suitable, to evaluate and compare options.
Using feedback from all relevant past projects across the UK rail network, lessons learned etc.
Monitor that designers are up to date via training, briefings etc.

Confirm whether strict change control is maintained on scope development; evaluate cost, time and performance impacts in conjunction with development management.

Participate in the selection of a single option for further development, preparing or monitoring preparation of reports, papers etc as necessary.

Manage (or undertake where applicable) the development of the selected single option.

Manage (or undertake where applicable) the preparation of the full engineering data package required for commencement of the detailed design, and participate in answering clarifications/queries as needed.

Discharge the Construction Design Management (CDM) duties as required and carry out or monitor cross-discipline engineering checks of all relevant aspects of the proposal.

Carry out independent checking of safety critical design documentation.

Manage adequate resourcing of the feasibility stages of project development, in both the quality and quantity of Network Rail and supplier staff, and in the use of the most appropriate support equipment.

Manage the engineering interfaces of allocated proposals with concurrent work in other disciplines, or within other programmes.

Act as or liaise with the appropriate Project Engineer during project delivery so that design solutions, method statements for site works, and surveys in particular, are produced and approved to the required standards. Monitor, assess, evaluate and audit, where required, design outputs from internal designers, Consultants and Contractors during project delivery.
