Spanish overhead line engineers to acquire UK rail qualifications
V
ital Services Group has signed an agreement with Spanish overhead line electrification firm Electren, to equip Spanish engineers
with qualifications to work in the UK rail industry. The partnership will see Vital Rail, a specialist provider of integrated services for rail, light rail and underground infrastructures, work with Electren, which has pan-European experience on major overhead line and electrification works. Following an intensive English speaking course, a group of highly-qualified Spanish overhead line engineers will embark on a training programme which includes personal track safety and overhead line electrification construction. Gary Hardaker, managing director, Vital Rail said: ‘While the recent announcements around future investment are to be welcomed, the UK rail industry faces a potential skills shortage which could impinge on the delivery of major contracts in the years ahead. Our partnership with Electren is in direct response to this challenge and we see this joint venture as an innovative solution to ensuring that Vital is well placed to capitalise on future opportunities.’

ith the summer months approaching there is no better time to consider your options when it comes to
your employment. Whether you’re searching for a salary increase to help fund that perfect summer holiday, a role closer to home or simply a change of direction, specialist railway recruiters advance-TRS can assist every step of the way. Step one: know exactly which sector you
want to work in, how far you are prepared to travel, whether you want permanent or temporary employment and the salary or rate you are prepared to accept. If you are unsure of your market value then talk to a recruitment expert in your sector. Step two: Search for specialist
recruiters in your industry - they will have relationships with key companies and employers as well as live jobs that are ready to be filled. advance-TRS has more than 40 years experience in recruitment and is a preferred supplier to the majority of employers within the rail sector. As such it will undoubtedly have contacts within the companies you wish to be considered by. While big online job boards can be useful, many allow a multitude of agencies to have access to your C.V.. This can result in mass C.V. mailshots by inexperienced recruiters to unsuitable employers, a fact that could tarnish your professional integrity. Step three: Prepare your C.V. in case
a role becomes immediately available. Remember, you must be able to support the statements made in your C.V. and avoid exaggeration as untruths will probably come to light during reference checks. And finally... Ensure your Facebook settings are set to private! Employers use social media to check up on candidates so any lurid pictures and expletives should be deleted and your LinkedIn profile kept up to date. advance-TRS offers recruitment advice to the rail industry, to search its latest rail jobs or for further information on how it can assist your career search visit
