GENERAL MANAGER VACANCY- Swanage Railway Company Limited

The Swanage Railway has a vacancy for a General Manager to be responsible for the daily management of the railway on behalf of the Board and Council of Management of the governing parent charity, the Swanage Railway Trust.

This position reflects the continued growth and success of the Swanage Railway in recent years.

The smooth and sage running of the Swanage Railway is primarily dependent on “hands on” management of a large paid and volunteer work force and tight financial control.

In addition to a strong proven record in those areas of management, evidence of commitment as a volunteer is required, ideally to a heritage railway.

The future challenges will probably be in the commercial and marketing activities of the Swanage Railway together with the re-linking of the railway to the National Rail network at Wareham.

Salary is negotiable but likely to be circa £30,000 p.a.

Full details of the position are now available in pdf format, together with details of how to apply, by clicking here Please note: Application deadline is now 31st August 2007.

Applications should be made in writing to:
Keith Gooding, Company Secretary

138a Wareham Road,
Corfe Mullen,
Dorset.
BH21 3LJ
