Job description

  • Positive Work Environment: You will work in a positive environment, based on mutual respect and team spirit.
  • Professional Development: Our projects are often measured in years, sometimes decades, giving you and the organisation a future.
  • Learning and Autonomy: We will encourage you to work autonomously, being able to propose and decide 'what' and 'how'.
  • Security and Reliability: CAF has been working for over 100 years on a path that stretches into the future, giving you the security you need.
  • Cutting-edge technology: You will work with the latest technologies, facing the challenge of devising innovative approaches and solutions every day.
What will your role be in the company?

If you have technical expertise and an analytical mindset, as well as excellent communication skills and a natural ability to motivate and lead others, we need you on our team. As Team Leader, you'll work with us to manage a small team of Technicians and you will take the lead on prioritising tasks and organising warranty repairs, whilst liaising with the customer to ensure train availability and reliability targets are achieved.

As Team Leader, you will be relied upon for technical support, working alongside a team of Technicians to diagnose faults and conduct root cause analysis for an advanced fleet across a range of systems (electrical, pneumatic & hydraulic), using a combination of electrical schematics, test equipment, and diagnostic software.

If you are someone who thrives on finding solutions in a constantly changing environment, and are driven to achieve results, then this role is perfect for you.

What will make you successful?

To succeed in the role, you’re a natural communicator and collaborator with the ability to motivate others to drive for results. You have an NVQ Level 3 in electrical/ mechanical engineering (or equivalent) plus extensive post qualifying experience under your belt, and can demonstrate a wide knowledge of on-board train systems.

You have experience in detecting faults and carrying out root cause analysis across multiple systems and are capable of interpreting electrical, hydraulic, and pneumatic schematic diagrams, as well as being proficient in using diagnostic software, and test and measuring equipment. You hold a valid driver's license and have a flexible approach to working varying shifts including weekends, and both day and night shifts.
