£13.05p/h

Ganymede Solutions 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 at Blackpool LMD. Ganymede Solutions are a stock market recognised recruitment agency, specialising in the transportation, infrastructure, construction and engineering sectors on both permanent and contract basis.

The company covers the whole of the North, which includes the Northeast & 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!

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

The Role:

We are currently looking for an individual to join the night shift cleaning team as a Train Cleaner based at the Blackpool LMD Depot, backing onto Blackpool North Station. As a Train Cleaner you will be carrying out all aspects of interior and exterior cleaning, which includes duties such as:

• Hoovering/dusting/sweeping

• Mopping

• Sanitizing touch points

• Cleaning/restocking toilets

• Cleaning graffiti

• Changing bins

• Picking up litter

You will be working within a team of 8 Train Cleaners, plus 2 Team Leaders carrying out full and deep cleans on the Northern Rail fleet. This is a very fast paced and intensive role, with on average 20 trains and 55 coaches being cleaned per night, so our client needs someone who can step and be a real team player.

You will be working on a 4 on 4 off/5 on 4 off shift pattern, with working hours being 20:00 – 05:00am or 22:00 – 05:00am depending on the week.

The Company:

You will be joining a reputable company within the railway sector with a great track record of innovation within service delivery. They boast a loyal and hard-working team who strive for excellence in the services they provide to millions of commuters who use their trains. This is a role with a well-established brand who promote a great culture and offer employee development as standard.

Pay Rate & Benefits:

The pay rate for the team leader position will be at £13.05 per hour on an initial 6-month basis.

This is a fantastic opportunity as candidates who excel during the 6-month contract period will be considered for subsequent permanent positions. This presents a chance to join a great company in a secure industry that provide bright and long-term futures.

Requirements:

• Be able to pass a Drugs & Alcohol test

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

• Be able to attend a week of training in either Newton Heath Depot (Manchester) on 20/01/2025 or Allerton Depot (Liverpool) on 03/02/2025

• Provide your Right to Work documents before deployment

• Must have team leading experience, but this does NOT have to be rail based

• Happy to help mentality/attitude

• A decent fitness is needed as the site is very large and will involve a lot of walking, so please keep this in mind when applying

Next Step:

After applying for the Train Cleaning Team Leader role, your CV will be reviewed and if suitable you will receive a request to complete a short video interview.

Successful candidates will be required to attend a medical, drug & alcohol test and provide the correct eligibility to work documents.
