I read with interest the column in the Singapore Business review regarding the need for railway engineers for the expanding and developing MRT network,below is a copy of the extract:
The Ministry of Transport is in need of additional 15,000 rail engineers and technicians by 2030, as it grows Singapore's rail network.
According to Transport Minister Khaw Boon Wan, LTA and the two rail operators have increased their hiring for engineering, operations and maintenance by 50%, bringing the total industry headcount to about 9,300.
"By 2030, we expect this number to further increase to 15,000. This makes the rail industry a growth industry, whose employment prospects are almost guaranteed in the next decade.
I myself am extremely interested in working on these exciting projects and relocating from the UK.Adverts on the LTA website do not specify if expats would be considered and my question is does anyone know if these positions are to be filled by Singaporeans only?
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
