Feb 12 2010 by Peter McCusker, The Journal
A RAIL maintenance firm has rebranded itself as it looks to expand into new sectors creating new jobs as it does.
Blaydon-based Infrasafe has dumped its previous Railsafe name as it aims to bid for new work, which it says could create up to 100 jobs.
The company emerged from Railsafe Systems which was launched after rail privatisation 15 years ago.
It offers recruitment, training, construction, maintenance, repairs and environmental services such as graffiti and fly-tipping clearance to both local authorities and the private sector.
Chief executive Les Savory said: “We manage general construction projects and are recruiting skilled tradespeople now for upcoming project work.
“We provide a wide range of services to the rail and road industry. These services require a variety of skills from builders to electricians and we are looking for fully qualified trades- people to join our reputed team.
“The severe winter has created work throughout the North and be it repairing potholes, clearing graffiti, road marking, track work or supplying bricklayers and fencers, we have the workforce to deal with it.”
