What you’ll do
Travelling on our trains and patrolling our stations, you’ll help to deal with anti-social behaviour, crime and fare evasion. Sometimes it means physically stepping in to deescalate a situation. Other times it means seizing evidence and taking reports for minor crimes.
However, you’ll never do it alone. You’ll work with your partner, station teams, train staff, the British Transport Police and other services to resolve incidents and make sure vulnerable passengers get the support they need.
Your training
- When you join us, you’ll be enrolled into our Passenger Services Apprenticeship Programme.
- You’ll complete a mix of classroom-based and on-the-job learning, covering everything from functional skills to conflict management.
Although it’s always a last resort, sometimes physical intervention is needed to resolve a conflict. Our training will make sure you can do this confidently and safely.
Your shifts
- You will work a varied shift pattern, which includes weekends, bank holidays and nights.
- Shifts can start as early as 6am or finish at 2am.
- Rosters vary but it’s likely you’ll work one week of early shifts followed by three weeks of late shifts.
