Hanson & Hall Rail Services Solutions Ltd has appointed Paul Willerton to the position of managing director. Paul has been with the company since the beginning of 2023 and has been promoted from the position of head of human resources planning and talent acquisition. He takes over from Jason Hall, the founder of the business.<\/p>\n

After a period of significant growth, Jason has decided to take a step back from being the focal point and leader of the business to concentrate more on his family and outside interests. The business has grown substantially under his stewardship, looking after major mothballing programmes during the Covid pandemic and gaining an operator\u2019s licence for both freight and passenger work during 2021 and 2022.<\/p>\n

The industry has changed during this time and, in order for the business to continue to grow and flourish, a person with new vision, abundant energy and enthusiasm will help drive the business forward into its next chapter. Jason will remain a valued member of the operational team and focus on his passion for train planning and operation maintaining the close relationships he has formed with the customers that have helped grow the business.<\/p>\n

Paul has a rail industry pedigree extending from depot operations to project leadership, in business development, operations, and Human Resources management. As the Managing Director, Paul will focus on building relationships across the industry allowing the business to continue to grow in its core offering and diversify into new products and services.<\/p>\n

Paul commented, “I am honoured to become managing director of Hanson & Hall Rail Services
Solutions Ltd, and I’m grateful to Jason and the management team for the opportunity to drive
this company’s growth at an exciting time for the UK rail sector. I’m looking forward to building
upon the relationships with our fantastic customer base, and to forging new partnerships as we
expand our rail services offering.”<\/p>\n

He continued, “There’s a great team here, and the combined expertise and experience gives me
the confidence that we can continue to deliver beyond our customers’ expectations.”<\/p>\n
