Job description: Team Leader – Train Cleaning Division

Day Shift Role

Based in Preston Station, PR1

6-month initial contract with the opportunity to join on a permanent basis

£11.59p/h

We are working with one of the largest UK Train Operating Companies (currently operating 464 stations, the most of any TOC in the UK), who are seeking to recruit a Train Cleaner to join the train cleaning team based in Preston Station.

They are looking for someone with a ‘go getter’ attitude who isn’t afraid to get stuck in and can lead a team by example.

The Role:

The role itself is that of a Train Presentation Team Leader. This means that you will be leading a team of 2 operatives at any one time in the cleaning of a train, as well as issuing jobs on the worksheet, audits, and liaising with the Train Presentation Supervisor. This will include interior cleaning, hoovering the floors, inspecting/maintaining toilets, etc. For this role, my client is seeking a candidate that can ‘lead from the front’ and be an example to the other cleaners in how to carry out their duties.

The role is FULL CLEAN focused, meaning that the train must be sanitised & clean for passenger usage, as the trains will be going back out into service directly after you and your team finished.

You will work a 7 on 7 off shift, covering days only. Your shift will be that of 8am – 6pm.

The Company:

The company covers the whole of the North, which includes the North East & West of England, Yorkshire and the Humber, as well as the occasional part of the East Midlands and Staffordshire.

As a result of this, they have a large fleet of trains – 333 to be precise, so it’s safe to say you will be active & busy with your role!

Remuneration & Benefits:

This rail company has on offer the following for contract staff:

£11.59p/h

Progression routes – Our client is hiring into their business on a permanent basis after an initial phase on a 6-month contract. Once permanent you will then receive opportunities to further progress your career in a range of positions such as train presentation, engineering, customer service and more. The additional benefits include free travel on their network, discounted travel on a range of train operating companies and more.

Requirements:

Be able to pass a Drugs & Alcohol test

Be able to pass a full rail medical – this will include, sight, hearing, colourisation, heart, lungs, brain, etc

Be Computer literate – Microsoft Office, Emails, etc

Previous Supervisory/Team Lead experience necessary – this does NOT have to be rail based
