Recruitment
“It is my privilege to nominate the Metro South Southern Operations for the Learning & Development & Investment in People Award for their dedication to the development of drivers at Selhurst and Norwood Depot.
Whilst maintaining his role as a driver, Richard Newbury has championed the City & Guilds NVQ level 2 diploma which covers 9 units reflecting the role of the modern day driver. Driver Newbury with the support of the Metro South Southern Operations Team, has established a program which focuses on current drivers and their development in non-technical skills and strategies. It can be easy to neglect a drivers development once they have received their key, often times only discussing development when involved in an incident. However, this program invests in them as career people, obtaining a professional qualification to support their development and future career journey, which in hand retains the talent within the GTR network, growing and developing from within.“
“I would like to thank you for a amazing night. The theme of the night was great, we all entered into the spirit and dressed to impress. On arrival we where amazed with the greeting, the Rail Seventeen Cups were a lovely touch, as were the bouncers on the door. The food was fabulous and the show by the stunt men and dancers was a real treat. The awards were a pleasure to watch, my favorite being the Life Time achievement, which brought a tear to everyone’s eyes. Then we danced the night away to the band, who where great and had a gamble with our fun money. Overall the atmosphere was electric. I enjoyed every minute of the evening.”
