Recruitment
“Can't see how anyone else deserves it more. His service is second to none. He is a classic reflection on how successful E&P continues to perform.“
“Steve is in an extended Autumn of a career in which he has maintained and renewed the infrastructure E&P asset with passion and respect; and whilst health and family considerations increasingly draw him towards retirement, he has striven to eventually only leave a team embedded with his own skills and values.
In recent years Steve agreed with his manager he would step back from directly engineering delivery of E&P renewals schemes himself, and focus on developing the younger engineers in his team. Despite physical limitations that develop in our more mature years; and often in arduous and inclement conditions, Steve dedicated himself to always be there to share his vast experience in E&P with his more junior engineering colleagues. In sharing his experience and knowledge, Steve has been careful to also impart his own respect for the asset and its importance in the operational railway.
When Steve finally accepts it is time to ‘hang up the orange vest’, he will leave a team confident of the legacy he will leave behind in which his own skills and values are embedded; and that the team is in a good place to continue to successfully deliver renewals schemes for Network Rail.“
“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.”
