Job Description

The ISA (Independent Safety Assessment) Lead Assessor is responsible for leading and managing the assessment of railway systems, ensuring that they meet the highest safety standards and regulatory compliance requirements.

  • Minimum of 20 years of experience in a Railway Safety related role and minimum of 10 years of experience in Railway Safety Assessment (ISA) role.
  • Proven experience with safety assessment methodologies, hazard analysis, and compliance assessments following CENELEC standards (EN 50126, EN 50128, EN 50129).
  • Experience managing safety-related projects and coordinating multidisciplinary teams.

Key Skills:

This role is office-based with occasional travel to client sites, project locations, or regulatory meetings as required. Most of the assessments can be done remotely, but the candidate should have the flexibility and ability to travel to the UAE or Oman to attend meetings or perform site visits.

Key Responsibilities
  1. Project Management:
    • Manage and lead independent safety assessment projects, ensuring they are delivered on time, within budget, and meet quality standards.
    • Develop project plans, define scope, allocate resources, and monitor project progress against established objectives and deliverables.

  2. Safety Assessment & Compliance:
    • Conduct independent safety assessments of railway systems, subsystems, and components in accordance with CENELEC standards (EN 50126, EN 50128, EN 50129) and relevant safety regulations.
    • Review and evaluate safety-related documents such as Hazard Analyses, Risk Assessments, Safety Cases, and Verification & Validation reports.
    • Identify safety-related issues, provide expert guidance, and develop recommendations for mitigating risks and ensuring compliance.
  3. Technical Leadership:
    • Lead technical discussions and assessments, providing expertise in safety assurance processes, methodologies, and industry best practices.
    • Develop and review safety management plans and procedures, ensuring alignment with project requirements and safety goals.
    • Lead and support assessors and project team members in safety assessment activities and methodologies.

  5. Regulatory & Standards Compliance:
    • Maintain up-to-date knowledge of railway safety standards, regulations, and guidelines.
    • Ensure that assessments comply with applicable standards and regulatory requirements at both national and international levels.
