Gary Sipson

hello

I have recently moved to Köln from London and for the past 10 years have been working for the London underground in a selection of safety critical and high pressure roles. I moved to Germany for new challenges and I am now currently searching for the next step in my working career. I speak B1 German currently and am working on improving and learning quickly utilizing my ability to work flexibility and learn on the job. in my last role I worked independently and as part of a team to maintain the safe running of a railway and responding in the appropriate manor during operational incidents to ensure the full resumption of services in a safe but also effective manner. 

I have worked in a variety of railway operational and management roles. Working with people both in control rooms and on site to ensure the safe running of the railway. I use fast thinking and people management skills to ensure the safe resumption of the service following an operational incident.

I have undertaken a 2 year apprenticeship in railway operations and also undertook a bachelor's degree in business management meanwhile working full time. I am also in the process of learning German, currently speaking B1 and hoping to achieve B2 within the first two months of living in Germany
