Job Description
Are you an ambitious final year undergraduate looking for a unique graduate programme?
Join us at Siemens Mobility and experience a programme that stands out from the rest. Could this be the exciting first step in your journey towards your career? If yes, then Siemens Mobility is the place for you!
This is your opportunity to understand how our work impacts everyday life across the globe, and you could be at the heart of that work. From seeing how a line of code evolves into a solution used worldwide, to exploring the breadth and depth of our diverse transport projects, build your skills with us and help create a better #TomorrowWithUs.
This opportunity is part of the East Coast Digital Programme (ECDP) team within Siemens Rail Infrastructure. Government funding in excess of £1Bn in digital signalling has been announced by the Transport secretary in July 2026 for the ECDP Framework. This involves deploying state of the art European Train Control System technology on the East Coast Mainline, creating the next generation railway. It will transform the capability of the south section of the East Coast Main Line, one of Britain's busiest rail routes, improving performance and safety through the introduction of digital signalling. The programme is split into 12 phases, to be delivered by 2030. This programme is a once in a generation opportunity to improve and transform how the railway works for passenger and freight users.
This programme is the first deployment of digital signalling on an intercity main line railway in the UK and lays the foundation for further deployment across the network, creating a more capable and more efficient railway.
The programme is trail blazing a new path for Network Rail and its suppliers, as well as train and freight operating companies to collaboratively work together in a transformative and collaborative industry model. This is also a step change for Network Rail working to a thin client model, with many responsibilities discharged to Siemens Mobility and the wider supply chain. This allows for a higher level of transparency between organisations and more agile promotion of best practice.
