An apprenticeship has arisen at Eaglescliffe Station for a young person wanting to get on the right career track.
Station operator Chester-le-Track says it is looking for a “bright young person” to help people plan trips around Great Britain, issue tickets for rail journeys and work as part of a team of three at the station.
The successful applicant, who must have a good geographical knowledge of the UK and preferably good computer skills, would work towards a qualification in Business Administration (NVQ Level 2).
A full-time position will be available on completion of the year-long apprenticeship.
A similar appeal, made in July 2012, attracted 60 local candidates and the chosen applicant, Paul Duck, is still working at Eaglescliffe. The 2012 appeal was made by stationmaster Alex Nelson after an agency claimed there weren’t any young people available for work in the area.
A recruitment and selection day for the current vacancy will be held in the Sunnyside Hotel on Yarm Road, Eaglescliffe, on Thursday. Candidates need to arrive about 10am and be available until 3pm at the latest.
Potential apprentices can drop a CV in at the station for the attention of stationmaster Alex Nelson, email alexnelson@dunelm.org.uk, or just turn up on November 20 at 10am. Training will mostly be carried out at Eaglescliffe, but there will also be work at Chester-le-Street station, with travel time and costs paid.
For more information, email Alex Nelson at alexnelson@dunelm.org.uk
