Name: Stuart Wood
Date of joining GrantRail: October 2006

What did you think about the GrantRail recruitment and induction process?

Extremely efficient. GrantRail kept me up to date with what was happening and provided ample time to prepare for the different stages of the recruitment process.


Briefly describe your role within the company.

I am into my second year on the General Management Graduate Scheme. This involves carrying out placements with the various divisions of GrantRail; this has provided me with an insight into what unique activities each area gets involved in. The tasks and activities I have undertaken have been both varied and interesting, widening my scope of knowledge and understanding of the railway industry.

What is your background (e.g. education, Qualifications, previous rail experience)?

I have an MA in Business Management as well as a BA in Business and Information Management.
Before I joined GrantRail I had no experience of the rail industry.

What attracted you to GrantRail and what do you now enjoy about working at GrantRail?

I was attracted by the opportunity to learn about the many different aspects of the business instead of just going straight into a specific role. Particularly within a diverse company like GrantRail the exposure to different aspects of its operations has provided me with invaluable experience. I enjoy the challenge of being given new and diverse projects to be involved in.

What would you say to someone thinking about a career with GrantRail?

It is an excellent opportunity to really get to know a large company from every angle and get real business experience. I believe GrantRail provides unrivalled opportunities that build a firm base for personal and professional development for your career going forward.
