Following two years of growth, PBH Rail is continuing its expansion with the appointment of Alan Quince, who joins the company as joint director of its systems engineering (formally track) division.
With a master’s degree in Railway Systems Engineering and Integration, Alan brings 35 years of rail industry experience and a wealth of knowledge in track and systems engineering. He joins PBH Rail after 30 years at Network Rail, and three years managing his own company, AQRES.
Alan will work alongside the division’s engineering technical director, Wayne Feery, to manage and grow the department, and support the delivery of a new major rail project worth over £1.9 billion.
Upon joining the company, Alan said: “I am thrilled to be joining PBH Rail. I have had the chance to work with some of the PBH team over the years and have always been impressed by their approach, work ethic, and collaborative culture.
“There is a real family feel to the business; the people are brilliant at what they do and are always willing to support one another. I am looking forward to contributing to that culture and helping the team develop their skills further.”
Engineering technical director, Wayne Feery added: “We are delighted to welcome Alan to the team. His expertise in digital signalling, safety assurance, and railway systems integration will complement our existing expertise, and will be invaluable in supporting the growth and development of our engineers.
“Investing in our people is at the heart of what we do, and Alan will play a key role in helping us upskill and mentor our teams to ensure we are delivering high-quality, safe, and compliant solutions for clients, as well as meet the challenges of the rapidly changing sector.”
