- The ability to engage confidently with technical specialists within the rail industry (e.g. the Department for Transport, Network Rail, Train Operating Companies, etc)
- The ability to work effectively within a team.
- Good organisational and time-management skills to produce personal and team-based outputs within time and budget constraints.
- Excellent analytical, numeracy and problem solving skills.
