I don't think Tim (UKTM) actually applied to this job - he was just letting SimSig people know about it.

The 'grade' of a signalling job usually relates to the intensity of the train service you have to deal with, and also reflects the pay. A grade 1 job is something like a crossing keeper and is paid the lowest of the signalling grade, and a Grade 9 job is a busy signalling centre (such as London Victoria (Central/Brighton-side) or Liverpool Street (Great Eastern-side) and is paid much more. I can never find the pay scale anywhere, so can't give you a run-down of what grade job pays what money. The Signaller's Assessment gives you a result which can restrict the jobs you can apply for. A pass at level 3 means you are not restricted and can apply for *any* vacancy that appears. A pass at level 1 or 2 restricts the signalling jobs you can apply for, based upon the 'grade' of each job. Log in to reply |

The grading of signalboxes is actually done using the Hay System of job evaluation, which is not a railway specific tool and - perversely perhaps - does not take into account the number of trains per shift or the intensity of the timetable. The original post in this topic shows a salary of £20329 p/a which is signaller grade 1, so I suspect that the position was actually at Spittal level crossing.
