Penzance still had a 75 lever Great Western tappet locked frame when I was there in June this year....Both are traditional SB buildings, Penzance has a NX Panel replacing its levers.
The two jobs are at Penzance SB and Par SB, both 24/7 SB and secure as you can be down in Cornwall.
Both are traditional SB buildings, Penzance has a NX Panel replacing its levers and Par has a frame and I think a small recently installed NX panel.
Rosters I think are a mix of 8hrs Mon-Fri with 12hrs over the weekend, both Grade 4 jobs.
There is a internal job at Plymouth panel at the moment, the 2nd time in about 5 months so there is always room to move if you wish.
The Cornish SB do it seems struggle to recruit so your previous RN service might well sever you well if you can sell it the right way once the app.
Really! Well I never, I assumed it was a panel these days.
Plymouth panel is a grade 6, shifts I’ve no idea I’m afraid - a guess would be 12hrs like most other large locations.
Most signallers would say so, but how many roles anywhere claim that their manager is fair etc. I think the role is especially good for someone who’s got a young family, the time spent will he more than someone who’s a signaller and thus working shifts. Also signallers love money, so I don’t think many would want to lose Sunday turns etc.So the consensus is LOM roles are awful? I've got a live application for the Victoria vacancy. Withdraw the application?
Fairly sure they are a grade higher and 10%, or something along those lines. Which of course is a nice amount! But for most signallers that earn shift enhancements they wouldn’t want to give that up.Aren't they still well paid though? I'm sure I saw one advertised at around £48k. That's not to be sniffed at!
Is a grade 4/5 AB frame more challenging to work than an equivalent grade NX, TCB panel?
That really depends on a lot of things. Even different boxes of the same grade can have wildly different workloads. The grading system currently used is a bit of a shambles.

Depends on the LOM, I got a phone call directly.
I did hear everything went to recruitment Friday, so I’d say mid to end of the week.

I think the NR careers site has had a breakdown - look at the closing dates - I remember these jobs being advertised back in October!
