Job Title: Project Safety Assurance Manager

At Alstom, we build what millions depend on daily - rail transportation systems that can’t afford to fail. We’re more than 85 000 people worldwide creating the industry’s most diverse portfolio: high-speed trains, metros, trams, maintenance services and integrated systems.

More than a job: a mission

We’re looking for a Project Safety Assurance Manager to ensure that the safety of our signalling solutions is embedded throughout every stage of the project lifecycle. This is a critical role focused on delivering safe, compliant and reliable railway systems that keep passengers and cities moving.

  • Provide technical leadership and guidance across project phases, from tender through commissioning and warranty
  • Ensure compliance with CENELEC standards and safety assurance methodologies
  • Lead and support Safety Assurance Engineers assigned to project.

You’ll work with sharp, committed teams across engineering, project management and system delivery - solving complex challenges that shape the future of mobility.

  • Experience working in multi-site and multicultural project environments
  • Ability to provide technical leadership and influence stakeholders across project teams

How success is measured

  • Quality, completeness and timeliness of safety deliverables
  • Effective management of safety risks and compliance with applicable standards
  • Successful assessment outcomes and closure of safety findings
  • Contribution to project milestones through proactive safety leadership
  • Collaboration, coaching and support provided to project teams and safety engineers
