Afternoon,

Two vacancies on First website, 1 for Station Assistant, the other for Service Delivery Assistant. Job Descriptions are pretty similar. As a non-railway insider, I was wondering what are the main difference in these roles to justify the difference in salary.

How would I recognise these people on the station?

Cheers

Service Delivery Assistant is a safety critical role - they dispatch trains, a Station Assistant is not - they clean terminating trains, provide passengers with assistances and complete other station jobs.

Service Delivery Assistants have a blue/yellow high vis, and a Station Assistant will have a orange/yellow high vis.
