    A career as a signaller

    I waited around 8/9 days to hear back, guess it depends how many people are being interview for the position as they’re not all done on the same day.....fingers crossed for you!

    Does anybody know exactly where the office is for the medical in Brighton, it’s in the BRIGHTON CED apparently. I’ve been to the ECR department for my interview so can find that easily enough.

    It’s very nice, I’ve been trying to work out roughly what the basic salary is for a grade 5, with spot rate, Sunday’s and night shift allowance I think I must be well off the mark otherwise this job is very well paid and I should have joined up years ago!

    This makes an interesting read, what’s the night shift allowance all about? Is that additional pay just for working a night shift?

    This sort of shift pattern looks like a dream!

    All sounds simple enough, I’m guessing some people prefer the 8 hour roster if it hasn’t been changed to the 12 hour one. What does the 12 hour shift pattern look like?

    So who makes the decision on the shift pattern? If all signallers in a box wanted to change from 8 to 12 hours is it likely to be considered?
