Who We Are

Join Our Property Team at Network Rail!

Our regional property team are a vital part of the North West & Central function, serving the busiest mixed-use railway in Europe and creating opportunities for economic growth for our communities and customers alike. With strategic land holdings at the heart of our major urban centres in London, Birmingham, Manchester and Liverpool, together with major rail investment initiatives underway across the region, we support some of the most exciting rail based transformations in the country.

Across Property, we create exceptional places for customers across our destination stations; provide workplaces that support our colleagues; and work creatively with Network Rail assets to generate income which drives investment and growth in the railway. Our regional property team generates significant income each year and seeks business efficiencies throughout, which is a benefit and value that is directly reinvested back into the railway.

With exciting growth and development plans ahead, our regional work is underpinned with our commercial plan. All of our work is focussed on delivering benefit for our customers and passengers - creating great places and generating sustainable income to help support rail investment and maintenance. We aim to deliver non-operational property initiatives which are rooted in improving our customer experiences, creating vibrant station environments and providing high quality level of service throughout.

A key aspect of this is our collaborative approach throughout - we are specifically developing our long-term relationships across the rail industry, both internally and with our key external stakeholders.

Our vision is to care for and invest in the Regions' non-operational property assets to generate lasting benefit for all our passengers and communities. We have an important role in contributing to our future - helping to tackle climate change and supporting sustainability drivers in our collective mission to achieve Net Zero. We have made significant strides in our delivery of improved social value metrics with improvements across our community and active travel processes.

This supports greater visibility of the positive impact our railways have for all our customers and communities.
