Close Call Operative (Current Employee) - York - 13 March 2022

I have worked at Network Rail for three years now and can honestly say they are a good company to work for. They have accommodated my wishes to work from home and go into the office once a month and agreed that I can work three days a week. The management are easy to approach and will listen if you have any concerns. I previously worked for BT, and wish they had been so responsive to my needs. There is free tea and coffee in the office, and also a good canteen with reasonably priced meals. All in all a good place to work. Shame there’s no free travel though!

Performance and Reporting Analyst (Current Employee) - Newport, Newport - 19 October 2018

My current role as a performance analyst involves interrogating reports and data from contractors and shift contractors on works complete on previous shifts. I produce a weekly executive reporting pack which gives a breakdown of earned value analysis, shift productivity and cost per shift. I act as the interface between the customer and contractor to keep strong stable relationships. the culture is very relaxed and typical "construction" I adapt to which ever culture I work within.
