We have an exciting opportunity for you to join a fast-paced rail company as a Mobile Rolling Stock Technician within their Train Care team, with a key focus on maintaining and repairing train interior fittings – especially bathroom fixtures and amenities.

This is a mobile, field-based role requiring flexibility, attention to detail, and a strong commitment to safety and quality – ideal for someone who takes pride in fixing issues that directly impact passenger comfort and experience.

What You’ll Be Doing:

Carrying out maintenance and repairs on interior train fittings, with a strong focus on bathroom components such as hand dryers, toilet seats, sinks, flush mechanisms, and panels.

Diagnosing and fixing faults identified during service, including leaks, damaged fixtures, or non-functional fittings in train bathrooms and passenger areas.

Performing quality checks, functionality tests, and condition assessments to ensure safety, hygiene, and comfort standards are upheld.

Managing tools, parts, and stock efficiently and reporting any shortages or maintenance needs.

Accurately documenting all work carried out in line with company and industry standards.

Operating in a mobile capacity across the fleet with most shifts spent attending to issues on in-service trains.

Shifts & Terms:

Shift Pattern: 4 on 4 off, 2 early shifts (06:00–18:00) and 2 late shifts (12:00–00:00)

Start Date: ASAP

Initial Assignment: 3-month rolling contract

What We’re Looking For:

Experience in mechanical fitting or plumbing – ideally with an NVQ Level 2/3 or equivalent experience in a trade or facilities background.

Solid understanding of bathroom fixture installation, maintenance, or repair in a commercial, transport, or industrial setting.

Familiarity with health, safety, and quality compliance standards.

Self-motivated, dependable, and capable of working alone or with a team.

Experience in rolling stock and PTS certification is desirable but not essential – full training can be provided.

Additional Information:

All applicants must pass a rail-standard Drug & Alcohol test before starting and may be subject to random testing.

Make a real difference to passenger experience with every repair you complete. Apply now to join a team that keeps the railway running – one fixture at a time.
