Systems Assurance Manager (Rail) – Bid Opportunity
We are seeking an experienced Systems Assurance Manager to support a major rail bid opportunity and help shape the assurance strategy for a complex, safety-critical programme. This role will lead the development, coordination and delivery of systems assurance activities across the project lifecycle, ensuring that technical solutions are demonstrably safe, compliant, reliable and fit for purpose. You will work closely with engineering, operations, safety, quality, project management and commercial teams to establish a clear and robust assurance framework.
Your responsibilities will include defining assurance plans, processes, standards and acceptance criteria; managing requirements traceability and verification evidence; coordinating hazard identification, risk assessment and safety assurance activities; and overseeing the production of assurance cases, compliance matrices and supporting technical documentation. You will review supplier and partner deliverables, monitor assurance progress, identify gaps and risks, and provide clear reports and recommendations to senior stakeholders. The role will also involve supporting bid submissions by contributing to technical responses, delivery methodologies, resource plans, programme assumptions and risk mitigation strategies.
Applicants should have significant experience in systems assurance, safety assurance, systems engineering or a related discipline within the rail or wider transportation sector. A strong understanding of railway standards, regulations, systems lifecycle processes, requirements management, verification and validation is essential. Experience working within multidisciplinary teams and across complex projects, bids or major programmes is highly desirable. You will be an effective communicator with the ability to influence stakeholders, challenge constructively and translate complex technical matters into concise, commercially aware information. A relevant degree or professional qualification, together with membership of an appropriate professional body, would be advantageous. This is an excellent opportunity for a proactive assurance professional to make a significant contribution to a high-profile rail programme from the bid stage onwards.
