Hima-Sella has appointed a new Project Engineer, Richard Verity, to
further strengthen its telecommunications expertise in the rail
sector.
Richard, a Chartered Engineer and MIEE, joins Hima-Sella's rail
and automation team at its Midlands office in Ashby de la Zouch,
Leicestershire, bringing substantial experience of mainline, urban
and light rail projects to the company.
In a career spanning over 20 years to date, Richard has worked
throughout the East Midlands, progressing from a junior engineer at
GEC Alsthom in Leicester, Systems Engineer at Bombardier in Derby,
to Principal Systems Engineer at KeTech Systems in Nottingham.
Previous projects he has worked on include the management of design
updates for on-train passenger information systems on London
Underground Northern and Piccadilly Lines and the design of
replacement customer information systems for 27 stations on the
Chiltern Railways network.
In his new role, Richard will join the project team responsible
for delivering a recently-awarded, high profile contract with
London Underground which requires Hima-Sella's in depth knowledge
of rail telecommunications and expertise in systems
integration.
Ian Wright, Hima-Sella's Managing Director, commented: "We are
delighted to welcome Richard on board at Hima-Sella at such a
crucial time. His extensive experience within the underground and
rail sectors will be invaluable on rail projects that Hima-Sella is
working on, as well as our future expansion within the rail sector
as a whole."
