You have to go through the internal application process, so lookout for jobs posted on connect.
Alternatively, ring up the local TSM and have a chat

Moving depots is a strange affair. Totally new area to learn, new staff to suss out, practices to change etc.
The lads are a laugh, but not it's not quite the same. :cry:

Try contacting the line manager of the depot you want to transfer to.. It should be quite easy to transfer depots/jobs etc. Im based at Rugby depot, but should be moving to either Northampton or Kettering, unless they give me a van.

Whats your job?

None. I now work in the 21st Century rather than the 19th Century Victorian railway being run from Eastleigh.
To counter act the regretful feeling, i'm recruiting a select few from Fareham. 8-)

Is your new role Chief NR Recruitment Officer purely because you have a log in on a Rail Forum? ;)

Sometimes you need to ditch the work to rule attitude for the greater good, in this case my sanity.
What's the first thing a new manager does at a football club?
Brings in his own staff ;)

Or maybe just because you are a manager now? Toe the line and all that.

We have them too within the driving grade...stuff the management,aint doing that etc etc,then overnight their attitude changes as they become driver managers.
