A little bit about us: We’re building a railway that connects people and places, making journeys easier and supporting economic growth across the region. East West Railway Company (EWR Co) was established by the Department for Transport to oversee the delivery of East West Rail, from construction through to passenger services. East West Rail is a nationally significant infrastructure project that will improve connections between Oxford, Milton Keynes, Bedford and Cambridge.
Backed by government investment through the Autumn 2024 Budget and 2025 Spending Review, the programme will help unlock sustainable growth across the Oxford-Cambridge Growth Corridor. Every role at EWR contributes to something bigger: connecting communities, supporting economic prosperity and creating a railway that will leave a lasting legacy. Our values shape how we work together every day, from putting Health, Safety and Security First to Working as One Team, Learning Together, Delivering with Drive and Purpose, and Celebrating Each Other's success.
Function: Our People team look after everything that makes the employee experience feel great. We handle the whole journey - from finding brilliant new people and getting them onboard, to keeping everyone informed, connected and developing. We’re also the safe pair of hands behind the scenes, keeping our people data in good shape and making sure we’re doing things the right way when it comes to employment standards. We create a positive, inclusive environment that makes East West Rail a great place to work.
About the role: The role will play a key role in shaping people experience at the East West Rail programme, leading development and delivery of a Team EWR engagement approach that creates alignment, transparency, and connection across a multi-employer programme environment. This role will lead cross-employer initiatives that bring people together across EWR, Network Rail, DFTO, partners and suppliers. Key objectives will be making sure people can access relevant information, understand programme priorities, feel connected to each other and our shared purpose, feel like thy belong, and are able to do their best work at East West Rail.
